I am looking for street scenes of Kowloon from the 1950s for use in my documentary film entitled 'Building 173: 1 house, 7 stories, 3 generations'. The film is the tale of an apartment building in downtown Shanghai. Its residents have witnessed three quarters of a century of the most dramatic upheaval in modern chinese history and the film tells their stories.

Here we bring together photos of old Hong Kong that are hosted on this site, together with links to other collections.
