Ho Ho Restaurant and Sun Ah Hotel
102 East Pender Street
The Sun Ah Hotel's 48 rooms on the top three storeys were typical
of the crowded lodgings for Chinese labourers early in this century.
Below, the Ho Ho Restaurant was typical of another generationof
Chinatown development - post-war restaurants and curios shops that
catered to newly-acquired tastes for the foreign and exotic. The
splendid HoHo neon sign (see walking tours button) was removed in
1997 for restoration. The building was built in 1911 and was designed
by R.T. Perry and White and Cockrill.
