Amoy Street (Hong Kong)

Amoy Street () is a street in the Wan Chai area of Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong. It connects Johnston Road in the north to Queen's Road East in the south. "Amoy" is an old name of the Chinese city of Xiamen. It has been described as "shy and retiring" by "Time Out" because it is a cul-de-sac with steps at one end.
History.
Amoy Street was opened on Marine Lot 40. Its first purchaser was MacVicar & Co. which used the lot on the former shore as warehouse. Prior to that, there was once a pier named Burn's Pier, and a sugar refinery. As part of a planned urban renewal scheme in 2008, local residents expressed concern over increased environmental noise and traffic.
