The road was formerly at the bay between Blackhead Point and the hill where the Former Marine Police Headquarters Compound stands. The bay was reclaimed for the construction of the former Kowloon Station of the Kowloon-Canton Railway while the Peninsula Hotel was built on the reclamation between Kowloon Station and Middle Road.

Features

At the Blackhead Point end of the road stands the Mariner's Club and Hermes House.
