Photograph of West Point. Floyd has labelled it as 'Chinese Town, West Point'. The caption reads: 'Chinese Town, West Point. Two of the most important native institutions in the Colony are given in this view – viz., the Chinese Hospital and the Chinese Theatre. The roof and belfry of the German Mission Church can be seen over the former, while just beyond the Church lies a large open space, which the Government has wisely enclosed as a native recreation ground. This part of the town is named Possession Point. The Theatre may be distinguished by the inscription on the nearest face, visible over the intervening houses. The total native population of Hongkong is about 120,000 souls'.
