PMQ at Aberdeen Street in Central was revitalised and transformed from the Former Hollywood Road Police Married Quarters. The site first served as the campus of the Central School.
Established in 1862 at Gough Street in Central, the Central School was the 1st government school providing upper primary and secondary education to the public. In 1889, the school was relocated to the current site of PMQ and was renamed Victoria College. It was again renamed Queen’s College in 1894. Severely damaged during World War II, the school premises were demolished, and Queen’s College moved to its present site at Causeway Bay in 1950. In 1951, the Police Married Quarters which was the first of its kind to provide residence for married Chinese rank and file police officers, were constructed at the former school site at Aberdeen Street.
The building design of the Former Hollywood Road Police Married Quarters reflects the architecture of the modern movement. The quarters were rated Grade 3 historic buildings in 2010. Revitalised as PMQ in 2014, the original quarters units have been converted into studio units, pop-up stores and co-working spaces for leasing to budding create-preneurs as well as some international and local designer brands for showcasing and marketing their products and services.
