For your consideration, I suggest the photo be cropped to indicate 2 different places.

Moddsey, this is a good suggestion. I'll do so.

Thanks. The building on the right corner with the narrow balcony is still standing.

The Chinese words on the right shop sign seem funny, because they look like artistic versions of the words  '公司' (company), but flipped over horizontally.  Yet if you look to the left of the photo to the shop signs down the road, 'Cathay' and '陳記' (Chan's) are cleared aligned correctly.
