Hi there,

The scene here did not change much from the 1930's through early 1970's.  That's whey the developers started pulling down most of the shophouses in Wanchai.

I still remember the shop house on the left and one of my primary classmates lived in one of those just about 30 metres away from there.

Best Regards,

T

The Lee Theatre probably opened to business on 10th February, 1927 with Cantonese opera.
