Late 1940s Wanchai waterfront air

Aerial photo from the late 1940s.

At the waterfront on the extreme right side appears Hua Nan [Motors]. According to industrialhistoryhk, Hua Nan Motors were founded in 1947, so the photo is definitely post-war. Very prominent on the waterfront is Luk Kwok Hotel.
