1963-06-24 news report indicates the hunghom to north point service moved from gilles road to the new pier at whampoa street.
1975-11-30 news report reported hunghom train station started operation. Hunghom to Central ferry service was also restarted. Instead of building a new pier, star ferry company rented the YMT ferry pier for Wanchai. YMT had to combine the North point and Wanchai services at the pier for North point as a result.
In 1979, a new pier for North point/Wanchai was built to replace this pier
