分域碼頭位於灣仔西北，曾係一個碼頭，由軍人輔導會營運。碼頭於美國同其他國家軍艦🪖訪港時負責接待水兵，並為船員提供多元化服務同旅遊指南。

碼頭包含一個四層高嘅海軍商場🏬，曾經為登岸水兵提供找換、安排旅店、理髮、洗衣、訂製西裝等服務。商場亦設有餐廳、首飾店、酒類店、郵政局、圖書館，同埋全港唯一賣啤酒🍻同比薩🍕嘅麥當勞餐廳供水兵同公眾使用同幫襯。

現今嘅分域碼頭其實係分域碼頭嘅第四代。首代分域碼頭建於1887年莊士頓道，為分域船廠嘅私人碼頭。其後，碼頭隨海岸線北移而喺1929年遷至告士打道。第二代碼頭喺1964年被颱風🌀摧毀並重建。喺1970年，碼頭再度北遷至現址，更分別喺74年同94年二度擴建碼頭，而海軍商場亦係第二次擴建而成。

2011年，中環海岸線再次北移，分域碼頭唔再同海邊相連。加上喺2014年打後訪港船隻每年僅數輛，政府於2020年決定停止分域碼頭嘅租約。於是，分域碼頭會開放至今年2月6日，並喺11號正式收檔🏚。如果有興趣認識吓呢段歷史嘅，不妨把握最後嘅機會到訪吓！

Fenwick Pier, located in the northwestern end of Wan Chai, is operated by the Servicemen's Guides Association. The pier, which used to be an actual pier by the harbour’s coast, served military sailors from the US🇺🇸 and other countries when the city welcomed visiting vessels, meeting their various travelling needs.

The pier includes the 4-storey Fleet Arcade, which allowed sailors⚓to enjoy services like money exchange, accommodation arrangements, hairdressing, laundry, and even tailors👔. The arcade also features restaurants, jewellery shops, liquor stores, a post office, a library and even Hong Kong’s only McDonald’s that served pizzas🍕and beers🍻!

The pier has been rebuilt several times and the present structure is its fourth edition. The first was built in 1887 at Johnston Road, as a private pier for the shipyard⚓Fenwick & Co. By 1929, it moved northwards along with Wan Chai’s coastline to Gloucester Road. This edition was later destroyed in a typhoon🌀in 1964 and was rebuilt. Later in 1970, it was again moved northwards to the present location, and went through 2 further expansions in 1974 and 1994, with the second of which saw the addition of Fleet Arcade.

The year 2011 saw the coastline migrate northwards once again, which landlocked the Fenwick Pier. In addition to the number of visiting vessels dropping to only a handful per year, the government decided to end the pier’s lease in 2020. Fenwick Pier will remain open till the 6th of February this year, and will officially close on the 11th🏚. So if you are interested in its historic tale, why not pay the pier a visit before it closes?
