Old Aberdeen Police Station


Warehouse Teenage Club (蒲窩青少年中心) occupies this charming red-brick building that used to be the Aberdeen Police Station. Built in 1891 on a hill rising on the coastline, the two-storey structure has sweeping views of Ap Lei Chau and the harbour, allowing it to keep an eye on everything and for everyone to note its presence, much like a lighthouse. You can browse after registering at the office.

It's situated on the top of a slope on Aberdeen Main Rd.
