A photo of Nathan Road on a quiet Sunday morning. Taken during my very last visit to the then British-administered territory, 1996. It was very nice to take a morning walk along Tsimshatsui's golden mile, hours before the shopping crowd comes

A survivor among newer buildings on Nathan Road is this well maintained throwback to the 1930s-1950s

On the corner of Nathan and Austin Roads and very busy pedestrian crossings. 

Note the long-rounded balconies on the Austin Road side

Presumably this narrow site is too small to redevelop on its own.
