Probably taken from a tram like the previous traffic pagoda photo. My guess is the junction of Hennessy and Stewart Roads looking west with the tram having left or about to enter Johnston Road, Wanchai. The white building on the corner is distinctive with the restaurant shop sign. Some matching-up to be done for confirmation.

Update: Managed to match the signboards as seen here Stewart Road is confirmed.
