Nos. 177-179 Prince Edward Road West, Pre-war shophouse in Yau Tsim Mong District, Hong Kong.

Nos. 177-179 Prince Edward Road West is a pre-war corner building at the junction with Garden Street, completed in 1937. The two numbers share a single staircase. No. 179 displays 1930s Art Deco features: a stepped gable, banded decoration, a rooftop flagpole and curtain-shaped elements.

Nos. 177-179 Prince Edward Road West was completed in 1937, built on land bought by Wong Yiu-nam and Wong Kit-chau, son and daughter of Wong Wong-choi, a co-founder of China Motor Bus. The Antiquities Advisory Board graded the two numbers as Grade III historic buildings on 2 March and 10 November 2010. No. 179 was acquired in early 2007 by Tai Hung Fai Enterprise for its Hotel 1936 project, which kept the front facade and rebuilt the rear as a 20-storey hotel opened in December 2020.

The building was commissioned in 1937 by Huang Yaonan and Huang Jieqiu, children of Huang Wangcai, a co-founder of China Motor Bus. Nos. 177 and 179 share a single staircase, and No. 179's facade carries Art Deco stepped gables, banded ornament, a rooftop flagpole and curtain-shaped forms. Its corner position at Garden Street has drawn film crews, including for "Colour of the Truth" and "Glass Tears".

The building stands at the corner of Prince Edward Road West and Garden Street in Mong Kok. No. 179 now houses Hotel 1936, whose second-floor permanent exhibition room is open to the public. The two numbers share a single staircase, and the facade is best seen from the opposite side of the junction.

The corner site at Garden Street made the building a film location: it appears in Wong Kar-wai's cinematographer Christopher Doyle's "Colour of May" (2004), "Glass Tears" (1998), "It Had to Be You" (2004) and "Crazy N' the City" (2005). Nos. 177 and 179 also share a single staircase.
