  • Three Chinese Stores in Early Honolulu
    Three Chinese Stores in Early Honolulu Wai-Jane Char Early in the nineteenth century, there were three Chinese stores in Honolulu, listed in The Friend on August 11, 1844 as "Samping [Samsing] & Co., Ahung & Co. [Hungtai], and Tyhune." The stores are long gone and forgotten, but they were significant among the commercial establishments of that time. The first store mentioned, Samsing Co., had a modest beginning in the 1830s, next to a bakery on Fort Street, in the middle of the block near the west entrance of today's Financial Plaza. Later Samsing Co. had a location on King Street facing south in the middle of the block between Bethel and Nuuanu Streets. Yat Loy Co. carried on a dry goods business there for most of the twentieth century.1 The second store mentioned was Hungtai Co., begun even earlier at the northeast corner of Fort and Merchant Streets, where today stands the multi-storied Financial Plaza. In 1838, the store moved to a building called the "Pagoda" on Merchant Street, facing the harbor, between Fort Street and Bethel, then not yet opened as a street.2 The third store, Tyhune, also started before the mid-3os, was at the south- west corner of Hotel and Nuuanu Streets. It was marked merely as "Chinese store" on a map drawn by Alexander Simpson in 1843, during contentions over the land claims of Richard Charlton.3 During the period the Chinese stores were in business, Honolulu changed from a small village into a flourishing town with lumber yards, wharfs, streets, schools, and churches.

  • Contract for Preliminary Design of HK-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge Signed *********************************************************************
    Contract for preliminary design of HK-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge signed ********************************************************************* Representatives of the three sides in the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (HZMB) Advance Work Co-ordination Group today (March 13) in Zhuhai staged contract signing and launch ceremonies for the start of the preliminary design and investigation of the main body of the HZMB project. The signing of the contract by the representatives of the three sides and the representative of the consortium that will undertake the preliminary design and investigation work - the China Highway Planning and Design Institute (HPDI) - marked a major step forward in the work of the HZMB project. Led by the HPDI, the consortium comprises COWI A/S, Ove Arup & Partners Hong Kong Ltd, Shanghai Tunnel Engineering & Rail Transit Design and Research Institute and CCCC First Harbour Consultants Co Ltd. As a team, they will share information and draw on each other's expertise in project management, structural design and landscape issues. They will work together to complete the preliminary design with a view to laying a strong foundation for the subsequent construction works. The main body of the HZMB will be about 29.6km. To the west, it lands on the artificial island off Gongbei, and to the east, it lands on the eastern artificial island for the tunnel section. It will be built according to six-lane expressway standard with vehicle speed of 100km per hour.
