Either you love it or hate it - there's no in between. IMHO they have already ruined the Star Ferry with the last harbour reclamation in Central by moving the ferry terminal from easy walking access next to the Post Office to the edge of the reclamation. I marched and petitioned against it but nobody listened! And the funny thing is that with global warming and higher sea levels the new reclamation will be in jeopardy anyway. But nobody talks about that! And they are going to run a highway through it!! Bah Humbug. Howard
