This place is currently sitting in death row awaiting execution. Built in 1957, it was part of the Star Ferry pier infrastructure that suddenly became orphaned when the pier was demolished in 2006. Sadly, I was in Hong Kong for that debacle and the subsequent porky pies trotted out the the then development secretary who assured everyone the pier's clock was to be preserved (it wasn't). Anyway, I'm pretty sure this will go soon if it hasn't already (you can tell I don't go to the Island much).
Anyway, we've seen this place on numerous occasions before now, including quite a few films shooting scenes on the open top floor.
In Awarapan, this is where Shivam is confronted by his arch enemy, Munna, Malik's spoilt son.
