Love in Hong Kong - Pauline Teutscher (1983) - Cornwall Avenue, Tsim Sha Tsui

Here's a place you will have a hard job locating on a modern map of TST. This is the view along Cornwall Avenue looking north (well, strictly speaking,it would be northwest because that's the direction the road used to lie on). There is a glimpse of the former path Cornwall Avenue used to take on modern maps if you look on the west side of the K11 Masterpiece in TST. The diagonal line to the northwest made by that side of the mall was dictated solely by the existence of Cornwall Avenue, and even though the mall didn't build over the road per se, it was included in the redevelopment and is now a nameless, covered, pedestrianised pathway. You can see the same view in this photo over on Gwulo.com, albeit a decade earlier.
