Top: Barker Road Houses 1931 (annotated)
Bottom: own photo from 2017
Both were taken from Lugard Road. Due to the trees only a part of the houses are visible on the 2017 photo. Following is a list of houses that were built on the same lot. Almost 90 years between the two photos is a long period for Hong Kong's development, therefore none of the 1931 buildings still exist (except Victoria Hospital Maternity Block which is not shown on the 2017 photo). Some of the houses shown are third generation already
