#133 Boundary Street, Kowloon [????- ]

Hi there,

The tag shown in the map is just an approximate location.  From a copy of the HK City Guide 2008 published by Wan Li Book Co. Ltd, #139 Boundary Street is marked at the location of Block 4 of Kent Court.  It would take a walk by to verify the exact location of #133.

Emma Avenue [????- ]

20081128 010 Emma Avenue (on the right) as seen from Soares Ave. This is also one of the corners of the triangular plot which housed the pro-Communist school. The Fourseas would have looked over the road about 100 metres further up - you can see the windows from the Metropark Hotel Kowloon facing the camera to the left of the bamboo scaffolding.
