Nam Koo Terrace, Grade I historic mansion in Wan Chai District, Hong Kong
The two-story red brick building combines Chinese and Western architectural elements with arched balconies, stone columns, and ornate wooden carvings.
Local merchant Tu Zhongwen purchased the land for 2,200 dollars in 1917 and constructed Nam Koo Terrace on Ship Street in 1918.
During the Japanese occupation from 1941 to 1945, the building served as a reception hall connected to military activities in the area.
The structure remains abandoned despite its protected status, with Hopewell Holdings submitting plans to transform it into a wedding venue.
The mansion sits on a 10-meter elevation, which provided views of Victoria Harbour's maritime traffic during the early 20th century.
