Here's another close up that may have been missed by those not familiar with Hong Kong's recent past. It's the facade of the, since demolished, Hotel Furama. Built and opened in 1973, this hotel was a popular addition to the waterfront in Central and a great many people mourned its subsequent demolition in the early 2000s. By the time I moved here full time in 2006, the plot had already been filled in by the AIA building.
