Before the heist, the gang's boss insists that the group spend the night together incommunicado to prevent any news of their robbery getting out and alerting the police. It turns out that the red/blue sign attached the building says "吉祥", which was a cafe located on the corner of Mongkok Road and Portland Street. So the gang are holed up in one of those corner buildings. The only problem is I haven't been able to determine which one so will have to make an educated guess.
When the pair lookout the the flat opposite at the party going on, the camera pans along the outside and you can see the Portland Street sign. This doesn't match the corner building on the NE corner, so I will assume this is looking instead to the SW corner of the junction. Unfortunately, I can't confirm 100% because that building was replaced by "Bright Way Tower" in 1992. However, assuming I'm correct, this means the gang were holed up in the second floor flat at 320 Portland Street - coincidentally, that flat still has green coloured window frames.
