Kowloon City Snapshots

I went to this shop quite frequently when I was a kid, but I have never noticed the star on the top of the building, nor the balconies.





I think if this building can be renovated, it can be a local attraction.





I don't see buildings like this with pillars in front much these days.



These snakes shops are hard to find now.

i love old buildings.
Hong Kong was so beautiful before... back in the 1950s to 1960s.

Yes. I like old HK a lot, the style is special, not just tall modern buildings.

Without renovation, I don't think people can live in it though. If it's renovated, I think I like the idea of living in buildings like this.

yes! these buildings are quite special but most of them have already disappeared.

i agree that they need restoration and renovation and i also like the idea of living in one of them too...
