As Vickie and her cameraman do some more investigation into the mysterious goings-on at the film company, they install themselves on a nearby rooftop to do some reconnaissance with their binoculars. The location was a building located at 367 Kwun Tong Road looking towards Ngau Tau Kok MTR station. The area has changed, as you would expect, and the building they are on has been replaced by a residential building called the Lai Yue Building. Having said that, the large industrial building in the first image (it looks like two buildings because of the different facades) is still around. It's the Meyer Industrial Building - owned by the famous cookware company. The second image shows Ngau Tau Kok MTR station.

Desperate Mission - Germán Cobos (1965) - Amoy Canning Corp Building, Ngau Tau Kok
We recently saw the Amoycan Industrial Building along Kwun Tong Road, but the Amoy Canning site occupied a much larger footprint and the building seen below was located about 300 metres further west - where Amoy Gardens* is located today.
During the helicopter search for Z-55, we can see the main building of the old canning factory that fronted Ngau Tau Kok Road. It was located, more or less, exactly where blocks I, J and K of Amoy Gardens are now located.
* Amoy Gardens became infamous during the SARS emergency in 2003 when its sewage pipes were found to be a major cause of the spread of the disease around the estate, resulting in the residents undergoing extended quarantine and the estate being fitted with improved waste systems).

Sylvia is beginning to suspect who Porky really is and so goes to see Ah Long at his workplace at the quarry. He agrees to go for a talk and the pair ride off on Ah Long's scooter. A quick view of them riding along a main road was taken along New Clear Water Bay Road at the bottom of Kowloon Peak area.
