畢打街
The premises of Hong Kong's two most powerful trading "hongs" at the time, Dent &amp; Co. and Jardine, Matheson &amp; Co., were located on The Praya Central, Victoria's original waterfront, on the opposite sides of Pedder Street. Dent &amp; Co., one of the key founding members of The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited, had a sprawling complex which stretched along the Praya, and a west wing which abutted Pedder Street.
