Hi there,

Behind the Mandarin Hotel it was the St. Georges House, and then the Union House (Now the newer building is called the Chater House).  Union House could not be seen in the photo, however.  We also have the former GPO in the photo, as well as the modern day City Hall high block, and the car park.

Best Regards,

T

I thought the City Hall (high block) is to the east of the 2 storey parking?
