As the camera pans right, the 3rd image shows the old Grandeur Factory Building. This was still around until quite recently and was quite recognisable thanks to the model plane shop that occupied the ground floor called World Models Manufacturing Company and had two large model jet planes attached to the top of the first floor canopy. Anyway, it's now gone and has been replaced by "Boton Technology Innovation Tower".
Next up is a big mess of white.The building in front was called Mong's Industrial Building, but I don't know what the building behnd was called. That whole block now contains Ricky Centre, Nina Hotel Kowloon East and Kinox Centre.
The final image shows the building that sat on the corner of Hung To Road and Lai Yip Street, this was until last year (2022) the Tsui Wah Group Centre. Tsui Wah being a famous local restaurant company. It's now gone. But look next door and you can see the low-rise Lay Yip Street substation and next to it the still standing (for now) H.S. Chan Building at 4 Hung To Road.
