在賈炳達道公園（http://isletforum.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=22208&extra=）內，深綠色部份就是九龍寨城公園。

整個九龍寨城，這個衙府建築物是完完本本的留下來，成為九龍寨城公園的主館。
ALMSHOUSE（廣蔭院）在1847年建成，是一所三進四廂的南方建築物，牆身及柱礎用青磚及麻石建造，而屋頂樑架則為傳統木材結構，上鋪素燒的筒瓦和布瓦。
ALMSHOUSE又稱廣蔭院，是慈善窮人屋，供沒有能力賺錢的人（或一些寡婦）居住，由一些慈善團體管理，很多時是一些本地團體或教會的分支。
@An almshouse (also known as a poorhouse) is charitable housing provided to enable people (typically elderly people who can no longer work to earn enough to pay rent) to live in a particular community. They are often targeted at the poor of a locality, at those from certain forms of previous employment, or their widows, and are generally maintained by a charity or the trustees of a bequest. Almshouses were originally formed as extensions of the church system and were later adapted by local officials and authorities.

@a private house built in the past where old or poor people could live without having to pay rent
@但在網上找不到ALMSHOUSE是甚麼字的縮寫。知道，請留言，謝謝。
 網上有介紹城寨府衙花崗門楣上刻着黑色的「ALMSHOUSE」，是音譯，很絕妙。我估計這「ALMSHOUSE」不是衙門的音譯，翻查字典和維基百科，「ALMSHOUSE」是貧民所，救濟院，慈善的窮人居所。要說「ALMSHOUSE」是衙門的音譯，未免有點牽強和搞笑。
 更有說alms是傳教士的姓氏，隨便輕信便大鑊。
 這本The Management Of Almshouses In New England（http://www.disabilitymuseum.org/ ... ml?id=2530&page=all）在1884年出版，指出在兩百多年前，美國的新英格蘭（New England）便叫窮人屋做Almshouses。
The Management Of Almshouses In New England
Creator: Frank B. Sanborn (author)
Date: 1884
The poorhouses of New England are generally called almshouses, and have been since their first establishment, more than two centuries ago; using the old English name which in England is now given to private charitable establishments, while what in New England is called an almshouse is in the mother country termed a workhouse. Like the English "workhouse," our almshouses" were originally parish establishments, the New England town and parish having formerly been the same jurisdiction, although there may now be fifty parishes in a single large town like Boston. It is very seldom, however, that a New England town, or even a city, contains more than one almshouse.
 在英國，早在十四世紀，已經有人用ALMSHOUSE這個字。
入了這個衙府，左邊就是這個壽。
壽
欲種福田留世澤
須憑心地積陰德
很多人在人前就是甚麼甚麼高端人，在人後就做盡缺德事，好像富人，大商家，亦包括窮人，普通人等。所以，好像某某要臥床幾年才死。唉！他們有沒有做缺德事，他們自己最清楚，不過都是一場遊戲。
看到以前的ALMSHOUSE（廣蔭院）。
