Nathan Road 彌敦道, Jordan 佐敦

Taken from the corner of Jordan Road and Nathan Road, looking north. On the left is the Champion Building (with Yue Hwa emporium signage).

January 2001.

1959 Gingles Restaurant

Update: The date for this photo is 1959, as explained in the comments below.

The Flickr comments suggest the older photo is from 1938, but I think the decoration is more likely to be from George V's silver jubilee in 1935. Can anyone else confirm?

HKMan, the author of this post on Flickr, notes that the current corner building is named 'Cheong Hing Building', a direct descendant of the original 'Cheung Hing Store'.
