Old Central Government Offices

The old Central Government Offices was home to many of the Hong Kong Government's departments from 1847 to 1954. Built in 1847 as the Old Secretariat Building,^[1] it was also home to the territory's Legislative Council from the 1930s to 1954.

The two-storey colonial building was demolished in 1954 to make way for the new Central Government Offices.
