Nathan Road 1950 年代彌敦道
早期的尖沙咀彌敦道兩旁，用作軍事區或兵房，另外部分土地給洋人興建歐式花園洋房。當時並未有太多人肯由港島遷來居住，二戰後居民才漸增，外籍商人紛紛在尖沙咀投資土地興建樓房，尖沙咀彌敦道很有歐洲建築風格。
後經政府大力發展，商店、食肆和戲院如雨後春筍般出現，成為九龍的黃金地段，比上海街更加繁盛。今天許多人只說彌敦道是一條購物大道，但若細心留意的話，街道兩旁還保留了不同年代的歷史建築，見證彌敦道的流金歲月。
In the early days, both sides of Nathan Road in Tsim Sha Tsui were used as military areas or barracks, and other parts of the land were used for foreigners to build European-style garden houses. At that time, not many people were willing to move from Hong Kong Island to live there. After World War II, the number of residents increased, and foreign businessmen invested in land to build buildings in Tsim Sha Tsui. Nathan Road in Tsim Sha Tsui has a European architectural style.
After the government's vigorous development, shops, restaurants and theaters have sprung up, becoming a prime location in Kowloon, more prosperous than Shanghai Street. Today, many people only say that Nathan Road is a shopping avenue, but if you pay attention, there are still historical buildings of different ages on both sides of the street, witnessing the golden years of Nathan Road.
