Tai Koo Shing Ferry Pier, former pier in Hong Kong
Tai Koo Shing Ferry Pier was a small barge pier in Tai Koo Shing, Quarry Bay, on Hong Kong Island. It stood at the site now near Poyang Mansion and Tsui Woo Terrace, and ferries from it ran to Central and Kowloon City.
The pier opened in 1980 to ease traffic congestion on nearby roads and operated ferry services to Central and Kowloon City. It closed in 1983 when a larger replacement pier opened in Sai Wan Ho, which could handle greater passenger volumes.
The pier stood at what is now the area near Poyang Mansion and Tsui Woo Terrace in Tai Koo Shing, Quarry Bay, on Hong Kong Island's eastern side. No pier structure survives; the site is marked only by its position among these residential blocks, so look for the buildings rather than any waterfront remnant.
The pier was a barge structure, not a built pier, and its site now lies near Poyang Mansion and Tsui Woo Terrace in Tai Koo Shing. It opened on 12 August 1980, when Hong Kong and Yaumati Ferry launched two hydrofoil routes to Central and Kowloon City, taking over from Sai Wan Ho Ferry Pier.
