Murray House, Hong-Kong
Murray House is one of Hong Kong's oldest colonial buildings.
Murray House is one of Hong Kong's oldest colonial buildings. It was originally constructed as officer's barracks in Central before being dismantled brick-by-brick in 1982. After a protracted dispute over the building's final location, it was eventually reconstructed beside the Stanley promenade in 2001. During the building's two decades in storage markings made to the bricks to aid in the reconstruction leached off, leading to a complex reconstruction effort that resulted in several large stone pillars being left over once the reconstruction was complete. The leftover pillars are now installed beside the building as an art installation.
