Bandstand at English Bay
I added a new page on two bandstands at English Bay.
The bandstand in Alexandra Park was not the first one in that area.

Glencoe Lodge
I added a new page on Glencoe Lodge, which was at 2020 Barclay Street from 1931 to 1934.

1974 Georgia Street
I updated the page on 1974 Georgia Street. It was one of four similar houses on the south side of Georgia Street, near the intersection with Chilco Street.
From 1909 to 1982, the Stuart Building was on this property.

I added a reference to the death of Stanley Ho, the wealthy casino operator from Macau who bought the property in 1974.
In 1982, Mr. Ho demolished the Stuart Building. A new structure appeared on the site in 1995.
Stanley Ho died on May 26, 2020.

1150 Denman Street
I added a new page on 1150 Denman Street, which is on the southeast corner of Denman Street and Pendrell Street.
It appears that the lot was vacant until the early 1950s.
Since then it has been an apartment hotel and then a regular hotel.
