      Just a few minutes away from Hong Kong’s buzzing SoHo district is NoHo, its hipper, more laid-back younger cousin. Lying (as you might guess from its acronymic name) north of Hollywood Road, and occupying the length of Gough Street between Aberdeen and Shing Wong Streets, it was once mainly home to family-run shops and small printing presses.

      As part of the larger "NoHo" area, Gough Street has attracted tenants priced out of its larger neighbour SoHo. Once home to family-run stores and printers and now known locally for its casual Cantonese restaurants and art galleries, the Gough Street area's tenant mix was "internationalised" one or two years ago.
