Around Singapore

Singapore Map 1954: Showing Tanjong Rhu, former Kallang Airport, former Happy World Park and Geylang A glimpse of old Singapore in 1954. Particularly significant is that Tanjong Rhu / Marina South has not been reclaimed then. In addition, Nicol Highway was non-existent in 1954.

In 2015, the 4 blocks / 5 storey high HDB flats were slated for re-development. In 1965, these flats were built to house those in a massive fire in Siglap. This is still within the popular district 15. The most iconic was the former Wong Clinic..then at Block 2 #01-878 .. Dr Wong had since passed away.. we stay in Katong... and he was one of our family Doctors... Photos show .. vacated units.. except for the vibrant car park.. Across the road was The former Siglap market....

Have you ever explored the historical background of Balestier Road? Novena MRT & Novena Square were previously located on a Jewish cemetery. Alternatively, Balestier Hill Shopping Centre used to occupy a Chinese cemetery. Novena Church was constructed on the site of a former Chinese monastery. Here is a map of Singapore from 1954: - Presently, Kamgpong Chia Heng road has been replaced by Irrawaddy Road, which now connects Balestier Road directly to Thomson Road. Next to the former Thomson Road Police station stands the Thomson Medical Centre. Novena MRT and Novena Square were once located on a Jewish cemetery, while Balestier Hill Shoppi…

One Meyer @ 1 Meyer Place by SL Capital (5) Pte Ltd (formerly The Albracca) As this development is beside the head of Meyer Road and the current Katong Park MRTstation, it is pretty dirty and noisy. Furthermore, the Meyer Place (slip road) access from Meyer Road / Fort Road junction is temporarily closed during the MRT construction. Thus the only way into this estate is via ARTHUR Road or Ford Road. Anyway, there are only 4 small condos leading to Meyer Place. While out of the three bungalows along Meyer Place, only two are stayed in. While one is vacant. Actually two of these bungalows have “dirty” title deeds. As there are various claims to the Two run d…

The Summit at 461 Upper East Coast Road Site plan

Harbour View Tower Site plan and floor plan

A triangular piece of land. Essentially, there are 9 low-rise housing tower blocks. They share many characteristics with other developments, where the units tend to remain quite rectangular in shape. Overall, the planners have made a reasonably acceptable adjustment in the placement of each of the 9 blocks, based on my observation of the site plan from a global perspective. At first glance, there do not appear to be any major disturbing issues, aside from the sharp corners of some stacks. I hope these do not point towards the openings of neighboring units, particularly the balcony openings (if any). Fingers crossed! Source & Credit:

Jewel Changi Airport is a five-storey complex connected to Terminal 1. It will house about 300 retail outlets, an indoor waterfall and a five-storey garden. The expected TOP is in mid 2019. Some clients will be opening stores, there. Signed confidential agreement thus totally cannot reveal any details.

The most morbid area of SGH: The infamous Block 9. Or rather, once upon a time Block 9...a transit area for the natural and unnatural death and also that of misadventures... A cat has nine life’s.. but not so lucky for those (deceased bodies) who transit, here..as post-mortems were conducted ...

This freehold development consists of a single block 25 storeys high. High floors preferred due to it's proximity to the East Coast Parkway. But then, units facing East Coast Park has a birds eye view of the sea.
