I think that this photogrph was taken in Wan Chai. The Tsang 'Sock' Piano Co. sign, and the Cable and Wireless sign should help somebody to provide an precise location.
Thanks to Moddsey for locating the photograph taken on Hennessy Road looking East with Arsenal Street off to the left.

Re: Photo
Appears that Cable and Wireless had shared the building with Rediffusion. The location was at the junction of Arsenal Street and Hennessy Road as shown here The same watch and tyre adverts can also be seen.
Town Centre with Watch Advert
Thanks Moddsey.
I must have walked past that place many times in 1957/8. I'll alter the title and description. Placing photographs taken by others can be quite tricky
