Hong Kong Society for the Promotion of Virtue was founded in 1924 to promote study and practice of ethics and virtues. It moved into this building in 1927. The buildings are typical Chinese tenement houses of five-storeys. Each floor has a balcony enclosed with iron railings. The central part is articulated with a slight convex curve. These buildings represent the Chinese settlement housing type of the area in the early 20th century.
