Found this one on flickr in the album "Hong Kong 1972" by m20cw51.
Furama Hotel is under construction, and I believe that's the same for Altadena House. Old Cragside Mansions have already been demolished and an empty construction site can be seen left of Altadena. We should set demolition dates of Cragside to at least 1972, and finishing Altadena to 1972 or 1973. <Read more ...>

Found this double page photo in a book that is in my bookshelf. Its in German and published 1972. From other images in this book I date this one to 1976-1978. It is difficult to get a good quality when copying it, as the size is too big for my scanner and so I made just a photo.
Many buildings can be seen here. The one's I know from front left: Bank of America, Furama Hotel, Bank of China, a bit of HSBC, Mandarin Hotel, and Jardine Building. In the back I see Cragside, Altadena, Knightsbridge Court, and the Peak Tower. <Read more ...>

The helicopters provided a cross-harbour HK$35 service to Kai Tak before the first road tunnel was open when the helicopter service then ceased. <Read more ...>
