The original Man Yee Building (Chinese: 萬宜大廈; Jyutping: maan6 ji4 daai6 haa6), initially built in 1957, was the first building in Hong Kong with escalators.[1]
The original "Man Yee Building" is now referred to as the "Old Man Yee Building". Man Yee Building was built on a slope near the original Central waterfront, thus its entrance on the north and south differs by two floors.
The original Man Yee Building was the last building in Hong Kong with manually operated elevators, installed by Otis. Old-time skilled operators were hired.
