Nathan Road, Kowloon, 1904

Posted: January 4th, 2025 | No Comments »

To be fair Kowloon’s Nathan Road (formerly Robinson Road) has changed a bit since 1904!

Steven Luk Sir Hercules Robinson, 1st Baron Rosmead & former (5th) Governor did well getting 2 roads names after him – but confusing, hence Robinson Road the first remained in Mid-Levels and Robinson Road became Nathan Road after Sir Matthew Nathan, the 13th Governor and who approved most of the road layout of modern Kowloon.
