Kowloon Park

Date picture taken (to nearest decade for older photos): 
1980
Places shown in this photo: 
Kowloon Park - former site of Whitfield Barracks [????- ]
Manley House [1978- ]

This one is shot somewhere in Tsim Tsa Tsui. Possibly in Kowloon Park, and the two houses on right and left hand side might be Hanley and Manley Houses, resp. If you go to maximum magnification a (swimming?) crane can be seen in the background.

1930's Kowloon Park

Here's a puzzle for Moddsey! The picture shows my mother Peggy, sitting in the pram and her older sister Patsy standing next to her. On the back of the photo are the words "Peggy and Patsy - Kowloon Park".Is it really?

My mother was born on June 25th on the Peak - can anyone place the buildings behind the girls. I think I can make out one or two 'black & white' amahs? It also looks quite cold. I suppose it might be November or December 1930?
