Western Praya in Tsim Sha Tsui

The Government Notification no. 356 in Hongkong Government Gazette released on 3 September 1887 mentions:

The Road which runs parallel to the Western Praya at Kowloon Point, on the Eastern side of Marine Lots Nos. 9, 10, 11, 20, 21, 21A and 22, shall from henceforth be known as and designated MacDonnell Road.

Star Ferry pre-1957

Hi 

I am researching the pre-1957 Star Ferry, especially the Tsim Sha Tsui side. Would anyone be able to help with details, unique quirks, etc. I am also trying to determine the fare at the time. The closest I've come was 20c in 1959 - post move - does anyone know if this was the fare before the move, or if the move triggered an increase?  

Greatly appreciate any and all comments!
