Tsim Sha Tsui, C.1973
The Star Ferry Pier and Ocean Terminal were completed in 1957 and 1966.
At the back of the Star Ferry Pier and Ocean Terminal were the buildings of the Hong Kong and Kowloon Wharf and Godown, which were completed in 1886. They were rebuilt as the Harbour City in the mid 1960s.
In the middle of the picture, there were the Star House and Hong Kong Hotel, which opened in 1968. The land next to them was the construction site of the Ocean Centre.
The KCR Terminal with the Clock Tower were situated on the right side. The Terminal was moved to Hunghom in 1975 and the site was rebuilt as the Hong Kong Cultural Centre.
The reclaimed land at the back was being developed to a new tourist spot, Tsim Sha Tsui East. ■鄭寶鴻 香港歷史博物館榮譽顧問
