Make a Difference While Dining Well CafeDecoGroup For Immediate Release Make a difference while dining well Help the needy while celebrating Cafe Deco’s 20th anniversary (Hong Kong, February 10, 2014) – Eating well and doing good can now be done simultaneously as Cafe Deco Group launches the “HK$1 Charity Campaign” to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Group’s iconic restaurant – Cafe Deco at The Peak. Starting from the month of February, the Group will include a HK$1 charity donation per bill at all of the outlets in Hong Kong (except Cafe Deco Hong Kong International Airport and Kiosks) to raise funds for 6 local charities, specifically for children and the elderly over the next 12 months. Donation boxes will also be placed in selected outlets to collection additional donations from discerning diners. 100% of the donations will go directly to the Charity of the Month. “HK$1 may sound like a small amount to many, but as a collective effort, the sum could help make a big difference to someone in need,” says Ms. Sheila Chan, Director of PR and Marketing, Cafe Deco Group. “The Group hopes that through this charity campaign, it can both benefit the charities as well as increase public awareness of their meaningful work,” she states.

  • Historic Building Appraisals of the 2 New Items
    N28 Historic Building Appraisal Pound Lane Public Toilet and Bathhouse, Sai Ying Pun, Hong Kong The existing Pound Lane Public Toilet and Bathhouse (磅巷公廁及浴 Historical 室 ) was built at the junction of Pound Lane and Tai Ping Shan Street Interest (formerly known as Taipingshan Street, 太平山街) in 1961, on the site of an earlier bathhouse. The old bathhouse was built in 1904 in response to the outbreak of a Bubonic Plague in May 1894 in Taipingshan District, which was where the early Chinese population lived, and it was demolished in the late 1950s. It is thought that the English name of “Pound Lane” was derived from the existence of a government pound, or place where strayed cattle and so forth, or animals due for quarantine or confiscation, were kept. 1 Apart from the government pound, livestock such as pigs, cows and goats were also raised in buildings on Pound Lane and in its vicinity. Such animals were kept in shops, dwelling houses or shop-cum-dwelling houses. In April 1874, the Colonial Surgeon, Dr. Ph. B. C. Ayres, completed a report on the sanitary condition of the town of Victoria. It was observed that pigs were commonly kept in the houses all over the town. In houses including those on Pound Lane and in its vicinity, pigs were kept in kitchens, gullies at the back of houses and even under beds. The unhygienic conditions in dwellings of ordinary Chinese residents were also described by Ayres in his Annual Report of the Colonial Surgeon for the year 1879, in which he described dwellings that in general lacked pure air, pure water, purity from damp, pure light and equable temperature.

  • Hollywood Road Pamphlet
    Police Headquarters Block Location 10 Hollywood Road Date of completion 1919 Main building materials Steel reinforcement, concrete, granite, red bricks Architect Leslie Owen Ross of Britain, Royal Engineer Officer of the British Army Hong Kong Garrison Major functions Used as the Hong Kong Island Regional Police Headquarters and the Central District Police Headquarters after World War II. The building was decommissioned in 2004. HONG KONG HERITAGE SERIES Architectural features 1. Facing Hollywood Road, and BUILT IN HONG KONG serving as the distinguishing landmark of the Compound. 2. The north façade of the building is 4-storey high, offering an impression of solemnity and authority. 3. Constructed with the steel- reinforced concrete technology POLICE HEADQUARTERS BLOCK newly introduced at the time. This freed the adornments of the outer- wall from the constraints of the underlying architectural structure, and combined flexibly the building styles of different eras to give an aura of authority. Architectural features The front elevation of Police Headquarters Block reflects the revivalist architectural style that gained popularity in mid-18th century Britain: 1. Doric order: featuring massive columns bearing fillisters — a classic style common among Greek temples. 2. Roman arch: elongates the vertical proportion of the entire façade, giving the building a more solemn aura. 3. Baroque style: a popular style during the 17th century featuring columns that connect through several storeys. The style is grand and magnificent. 4. The “G” and “R” engravings at the centre of the building: abbreviated from the Latin rendering of the name of King George the Fifth ( Georgius V Rex ). 5. The decorative designs fringing the front entrance: are a symbol of the sceptre-holding disciplinary officials in ancient Rome, symbolising the tradition and authority of the Police Force.

  • Historic Building Appraisals of the 3 New Items
    N332 Historic Building Appraisal Nos. 88 & 90 Staunton Street, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong The houses, built in 1951, are situated at Nos. 88 and 90 Staunton Street (士 Historical 丹 頓 街 ).1 It is one of the oldest streets developed by the British on Hong Kong Interest Island, and can be identified on a map dated 1845. Staunton Street is bounded by Old Bailey Street (奧 卑 利 街 ) at one end and Shing Wong Street (城 皇 街 ) at the other, and intersects with Shelley Street (些利街), Graham Street (嘉咸街), Elgin Street (伊利近街) and Aberdeen Street (鴨 巴 甸 街 ). The Chinese community, mainly comprising newcomers from mainland China, was first established along the northern coast of Hong Kong Island in the early 1840s, with settlements concentrated in the Upper (上市場), Middle (中 市 場 ) and Lower Bazaars (下 市 場 ).2 The Middle Bazaar was located very close to the areas inhabited by Europeans. In view of the cultural differences between the Chinese and European communities and the undesirable hygienic condition of the Chinese tenements, the government carried out a segregation policy and relocated the Chinese residents of the Middle Bazaar to the Taipingshan area crossed by Lower Lascar Row (下 摩 囉 街 ), Hollywood Road (荷 里 活 道 ) and Taipingshan Street (now known as Tai Ping Shan Street) (太 平 山 街 ). By September 1844, all the old structures in the Middle Bazaar had been removed. Subsequently, the places to the east of Aberdeen Street in Central were inhabited by Europeans, and Staunton Street was no exception.
