Central Star Ferry Pier

What's the point in building an "Edwardian pier"? Why build something even older than the old pier? The new pier could have been something contemporary to the 21^st century. What we have now simply does not go well with the neighbouring piers, nor with our time.

Victorian houses in London speak for the Victorian period; but what will this "Edwardian pier" speak for? Our government has gone into the habit of demolishing the "real" historic elements and the people that go with them, and then build something to imitate the "old". If we want our city to have a historic touch, build something like the IFCs and the BOC building,  let them become history for our future generations, and let them speak for our time.

Don't relocate the Queen's Pier ?leave it there, or put it in a museum, or simply tear it down like the Star Ferry clock tower ?just DON'T plant it into somewhere totally out of context.
