I came upon this huge stone monument in Chater Garden yesterday. The most astonishing thing was that it was moved there in 1983. Before I read the engravings I didn't know it was so important. However I could not recall where was the original location.
Near to the centre of the photo is the dark roof of the second-generation Central market, and beyond that is the fire station. We know that the fire station was completed in 1926, and the market was demolished in 1937, so the photo was taken between those dates.
Can anyone see other landmarks that give us a more accurate date for the photo?
This one was mentioned by fellow netter philk earlier. The height of this block is one floor extra than most of the ones that we have been marking up here. I had had a glimsp of the stair case and it also appeared to be made of wood. I cannot verify the building date of this by it's looks as it had been modernized in the past decades.
