History
On 28 December 1851, a fire broke out and burned down Sheung Wan Market and hundreds of Chinese houses all around it resulting in 30 deaths. The fire led to the redevelopment of the whole district, which was supervised by Major-General William Jervois, then Commander and Lieutenant Governor of Hong Kong.
