Enquiry - Evolution of Kowloon City (Lung Shing)

Submitted by Pang Chor Kiu V... on Sun, 2019-09-15 08:42 
Kowloon City (especially the currently Lung Shing constituence) has quite a interesting history. I learnt that the area was previously scattered with several villages and later there is a development of the Kowloon Street (a local market); and then a pier that links to it. The Kai Dak reclamation also took several stages to be completed.

Thanks tngan; I just found:

"The China Mail" reports on the opening ceremony in the edition on Friday, August 15, 1902. The headline goes: "Blind Asylum at Mataukok".

So I think, I should move the marker more to the north (?) and seaward.

Photo was taken around late 1860s. In any case, must be before 1873.
