Nos. 600-626 Shanghai Street, Grade II historic tenement building in Yau Tsim Mong District, Hong Kong.

Nos. 600-626 Shanghai Street consists of ten connected shophouses with commercial spaces on the ground floor and residential accommodations above.

Built during the 1920s and 1930s, these structures exemplify the traditional tong lau architecture that merged Chinese and Western design elements.

The buildings represent a time when Hong Kong families operated businesses on the ground level while maintaining their residences in the upper floors.

The structures maintain their original layout with ground-floor retail spaces currently offering various goods and traditional local products.

The buildings feature preserved verandahs creating pedestrian arcades, a design element no longer permitted under Hong Kong building regulations since the 1960s.
