遊走都爹利街(煤氣燈街) 和域多利皇后街 (續)

SPD4459- The little white shoes

中環街市

前身--廣州市場,位於皇后大道中與嘉咸街交界,為早年居於中環一帶的華人而開設,一直都係中西文化新舊交替嘅匯聚點 。 

1858年建成第一代中環街市。第二代中環街市原址重建,1895年落成, 屬維多利亞式房屋設計,樓高3層,中央設有塔式建築,並於1937年拆卸。這幢歷史建築係後期藝術裝飾主義衍生出來嘅一門風格,大樓嘅特色就係簡單嘅橫向線條以實用功能為主。中環街市於2003年3月停止運作。與同類建築灣仔街市同屬實用簡單的包浩斯風格建築物,香港日治時期期間曾改稱中央市場

曾有團體要求政府把街市列作歷史文物保障,但政府聲稱「已把整幢建築物各個部份拍照存檔,已經算把它保存」( 咁都講得出…)

The Central Market

The bazaar was established in 1842 on Queen's Road Central between Cochrane Street and Graham Street. In 1843 it was also known as the Middle Bazaar The market was then replaced by residential houses for Europeans. The bazaar was moved to Queensway, where the present-day High Court stands. In the 1850s, it was moved to its current location on Des Voeux Road (then known as The Praya). Its name also changed to Central Market.

Some organizations have been requested the Government to safeguard the markets classified as historical artifacts, but the government replied that: Archive pictures of each part of the whole building has already been counted save it (How ridiculous it is to have such reply)



都爹利街

歷史建築級別:法定古蹟
落成年份:18751889年間

有一條花崗石建造的石階,石階上那四盞香港僅存的煤氣街燈, 每晚6:00準時亮起,為這條寧靜小街, 輕輕抹上了一層柔和的淡黃,認真好有feel! 現仍由原為本港提供街道照明而開辦的香港中華煤氣公司繼續操作。












Duddell Street

Historic buildings Level: Monuments
Year built: 1875-1889


It was built in granite stone, and there are still have four remaining gas street lamps in Hong Kong on the stone steps , which lit every night at 6:00 on time, help in decorating the stone stairs with lightings, made people feel warm and cozy! The street lighting provider is still the Hong Kong and China gas Company offered to continue operating.

說起藝穗會,也許大家都未必有什麼印象,但是相信這幾代人都對張國榮(哥哥)不會感到陌生吧!那麼,你們又知道哥哥和藝穗會有什麼關係嗎?
As for the Fringe Club, what do you come up with? Don't you know about the relationship between the late Mr Leslie Cheung and the Club?

經典電影《金枝玉葉》就是在藝穗會取景拍攝。電影中,印象最深刻的情節就是在藝穗會的一幕,造就了顧家明 (張國榮) 和林子穎(袁詠儀)的邂逅。
The famous film "He's a Woman, She's a Man" was filmed at the Fringe Club where Sam Koo Gai Ming (Leslie Cheung) ran into Lam Chi Wing (Anita Yuen) in the scene.

穗會1983年進駐後,把倉庫多次翻新修葺,為外牆塗上紅白色,才變成今日的外觀。
In 1983, it had undergone many renovations and printed in red and white since the Club moved in.

政府於2001年頒發文物獎,表揚倉庫見證百年歷史;更於2009年評為一級歷史建築。
The HK government presented the Hong Kong Heritage Awards and listed it as a Grade I historic building in 2001 and 2009 respectively.

現今藝穗會為香港或海外藝術家提供免租金的展覽及表演場地;同時也為藝術愛好者提供一處共聚和欣賞節目的地方。
Today, the Club has become an art space for artists to create and show their work, facilities for exhibitions and performances are offered rent-free to both emerging and professional artist in Hong Kong and from overseas.

大家好,今次SPD4459小白鞋就帶大家去回顧一下舊中區警署和域多利監獄。
Hello everyone, we are going to look back the Old Central Police Station compound in this journal. 

SPD4459
圖1.1 
中區警署內歷史最悠久的建築物是建於一八六四年之大樓(圖1.1),大樓原高三層,與域多利監獄毗鄰。其後,警署逐漸擴建,面對荷李活道的四層高大樓則於一九一九年加建。它與毗鄰的前中央裁判司署及域多利監獄,組成了一組標誌著法律及紀律的歷史建築群。現時,舊中區警署和域多利監獄為香港的法定古蹟。

舊中區警署屬後維多利亞風格,其紅磚牆、花崗石雕刻以及巨型圓柱最為特別;而裡頭又有鍛鐵陽台,以及花崗石建成的地板、樓梯,也值得一看。

近年來香港政府致力推廣保育和活化古蹟, 所以這些歷史建築群現正在活化,預計於2015年底重新開放。(圖1.2, 1.3)

The Old central Police Station, which is the oldest structure within the compound is a barrack block built in 1864. Nowadays, the police station and prison are a Declared Monument in Hong Kong.It is a three-storey building constructed adjacent to Victoria Prison. A storey was later added to the block in 1905. In 1919, Headquarters Block facing Hollywood Road was constructed. 





圖1.3
The late-Victorian style building is notable for its red brick walls, granite features and the imposing columns in its entrance hall. The barracks blocks at the left of the main entrance to the Old Central Police Station were built in 1860 and 1913. These have impressive granite staircases and wrought-iron balconies.

In recent years, the Hong Kong Government is committed to the promotion of heritage conservation and revitalization, these historic buildings are being activated, is expected to re-open at the end of 2015. 





圖1.4
域多利監獄於一八四一年落成,是香港開埠初期最先以耐久物料建造的建築物。第二次世界大戰期間,監獄內大部分建築物因受轟炸而嚴重損毀。當局進行修復後,於一九四六年重開作監獄之用。(圖1.4)

Built in 1841, Victoria Prison was understood to be the first western building constructed of durable material in Hong Kong. Most of the buildings within the compound were damaged by bombing during the Second World War. The Prison was reopened in 1946 after repairs.
