Benson - Robert Guillaume (1984) - King Lam Street, Cheung Sha Wan

Benson and Kraus track down the mysterious Ursula Van Dyne (Marian Mercer) to her garment factory. I'd love to say it was easy finding this place but it wasn't. The exterior shot for this place was a recently demolished factory building, the Wing Cheung Factory Buiidling, in the far part of Cheung Sha Wan along King Lam Street. It looks to have been kncoked down in 2020 and a new, taller building has replaced it, but Streetview has historical imagery showing it. The building on the right though, Hang Cheung Factory Building, is still around for the time being.

Interestingly, one of the businesses displayed on the exterior is still around and has a shop in Sham Shui Po - the Ta Hing Thread Manufacturing Company (大興線廠有限公司). Its name can be seen four rows down from the top in red writing.
