I mentioned that the internal police station scenes, at least those of Andy Lau's office, were filmed somewhere other than Ngau Tau Kok Police Station. The building, whose name and purpose I have yet to discover, was located where "The Latitude" (a residential development) now stands at the corner of Prince Edward Road East and Choi Hung Road. All I know is that it was a Government building and was most likely vacated for demolition at the time, which is why the production company were able to use it.
Look carefully through the window behind Lau in the screen caps below and you can see the curved slip road that takes traffic from Choi Hung Road down onto the south bound section of Prince Edward Road East at the northern boundary of the former Kai Tak site. What I can't say for sure is when this building was demolished - sometime around the mid-00s - and whether or not it was also used for the other interior police station scenes (I'm guessing yes).
If anyone knows what the building was used for, please feel free to send a mail or leave a comment.
