Shophouse at 22 Pottinger Street [????- ]

Here's another in Central. You can see they've glassed in the area that used to be the covered pavement. I wonder what the rules are on that - was the covered pavement area always part of their plot, or was it a public space?

An interesting building at Shantung Street and Nathan Road, Mongkok [????- ]

Hi there,

This one is interesting.  This location used to be the Lung Fung (The Dragon & the Phoenix) Restanrant (龍鳳大酒樓), which was visible in some of the Ritz Theatre photos posted last year.  I do not have proof, but I have an impression that after the restaurant folded the house was remodelled into the current building now:
