Building above the end of Spring Garden Lane

Cropped from Spring Garden Lane 1930's.jpg.

Very distinctive building with large central balconies, probably on Kennedy Road. Think the original photo was taken from Spring Garden Lane just north of the bend, the smaller lane should be Sam Pan Street. Up on the hill in this direction would be Hysan Lee family mansion, but I'm not sure.

Any help is welcome.
