Loke Yew Hall, the main building of University of Hong Kong. The Main Building is the oldest architectural structure on the HKU Main Campus. This Edwardian Baroque-style building was designed by Alfred Bryer of Messrs Leigh & Orange. Construction begun in 1910 and was completed in 1912. The building itself was a gift from Sir Hormusjee N Mody, who was a distinguished Parsi businessman and land developer in Hong Kong. Mody Road in Tsimshatsui bears his name. Without his generosity, the University's existence may not have been realised.
