This may be the pool at the Chinese YMCA but only because it was together with another picture of a square in the same location.

Hi there,

I am uncertain which YMCA was Booth talking about in this chapter, but other than the one in Tsimshatsui, there was this old YMCA house at this location.  It was an old manor house with fences, arches and a dome if I'm not mistaken.  But it was gone after the rebuilt about two decades ago.
