The postcard depicts Orchard Road just past its former junction with Tank Road, looking east. Colonial Motors showroom (with the Pirelli sign) can be identified along with Midfilm House (with the projection further down the road). This should be around 1921 or after as Midlfilm House was completed in 1921.
