Photo shows Mei Foo Sun Chuen in 1970s. Lai Chi Kok Bay was not yet reclaimed and people could hire sampans for rowing. When MTR Tsuen Wan Line was built in late 1970s, Lai Chi Kok Bay had to be reclaimed to provide land for the tunnel work, the underground station and the associated works areas. Additional comments to narrow down the date of the photo are welcome.
