Quarry Bay
Quarry Bay () is an area beneath Mount Parker in the Eastern District of Hong Kong Island, in Hong Kong. The western portion of the area was also formerly known as Lai Chi (麗池). Traditionally being an industrial and residential area, the number of commercial buildings in this district has increased over the past two decades.
==History==
During Colonial Hong Kong times, the Hakka stonemasons settled in the area after the British arrival.
The area was a bay where quarried rocks from the hillside for construction or building roads were transported by ship. The Chinese name ''Tsak Yue Chung'' (鰂魚涌) reveals that it was a small stream where crucian carp (鰂魚) could be found back in the 19th century. The English name was ''Arrow Fish Creek''.〔 The original bay has disappeared since land reclamation had been taken place, and was about 700m from the current coastline.
