Site of King George V Memorial Park (Kowloon) 1948

Date picture taken (to nearest decade for older photos): 
1948

Cropped from 1948 Kowloon Peninsula

Shows the site of the King George V Memorial Park (Kowloon) - or whats left after the Japanese occupation.

Wikipedia refers that the park was partly destroyed and used as a refuse dump. In 1948 it looks as if the site has been cleared already. Only a pavilion and a small building survived the war.

Jordan 佐敦, Kowloon 九龍

I'm not sure where this is. I seem to remember it was near the "other side" of Canton Road, perhaps somewhere up into Jordan, around Ferry Street area? Certainly somewhere I only went once by car or taxi.
