History
 

The U.S. Consulate General in Hong Kong has been in existence since 1843. It began with a single Consul General who conducted business from his residence. From the early 1920's the Consulate General offices were housed at 9 Ice House Street; later they were moved to the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank building. The Consulate General moved to the present location on 26 Garden Road in the late 1950's.
