To-date, conservation status has been given to 94 The house before conservation areas involving over 6800 buildings throughout the island. NO. 9 NEIL ROAD Conservation of our built heritage is an integral part of urban planning and development in Singapore.

O J N A PHASE 2C T The Urban Redevelopment Authority, which spearheaded the FUTURE DUXTON HILL PHASE 2B SURFACE pilot project, had wanted to revitalize the Tanjong Pagar area CARPARK DUXTON ROAD The shophouses before restoration th of Chinatown - an area rich in 19 Century urban heritage that TRAS STREET had deteriorated gradually over the years. NO. 9 NEIL ROAD The aim of the pilot restoration project was also to educate the public and industry on the importance of heritage conservation by revealing the buildings’ long hidden beauty, so that the planned gazette of our first conservation areas would receive public buy-in. A rather unusual clause was inserted into the restoration contract, which was awarded in May 1987. One unit had to be restored first before the contractor can start work on the rest of the 31 buildings. The unit to be restored was to be the sample unit that would set the standard for the other shophouses in Tanjong Pagar and the rest of Singapore. Work had to be monitored closely; the finishing material tested and confirmed, the working procedures efficient, all problems resolved effectively and the standard of workmanship upheld for this unit. No 9 Neil Rd was chosen as this sample unit. The building was selected for its rich external facade decorations and the fact that the timber fascia beam in front, a very important structural element, was very badly deteriorated and needed to be replaced. The Authority saw this was a golden opportunity to work out the construction method to be used for some of the remaining shophouses that had similar problems. The two-storey building with an attic floor was in poor condition. A large part of the roof had collapsed, all the windows except those on the second storey could not be salvaged, and most of the decorative mouldings were either damaged or missing. Aerial view of Tanjong Pagar in the 1980s No. 9 Neil Road Colour Scheme Documentation of the shophouses revealed that the paintwork was of a narrow colour range, chosen to enhance the natural colouration of the construction materials used. The colour schemes included pastel Restoration Works green, blue, white, creams and buffs, and deep red with occasional splashes of lilac.

Airwell With the recovery of the air-well as an open area, the shophouse interior was no longer the dark and stuffy space of old, when the air-well was partly covered and used for other purposes. A surprise discovery was made here with the Chinese water-colour frescoes found below the air- well parapets. When the layers of paints were scraped away, centuries old paintings of flowers and birds were once again revealed. The finished product Hacking the wall The internal wall plaster was hacked away and the walls treated with a special chemical to bind the bricks together. This hardened the wall and Recrafting ornamental motifs provided a very good base for new wall plaster. Before this treatment, the surface of the wall was so powdery that it could be removed easily with a stroke of the hand. Wall Ornamentation and Restoration The façade walls of the shophouses were beautifully decorated with ornamental plasterwork and intricately moulded motifs. Great care was taken to preserve these features and restore damaged and missing ones. The existing plaster work was of lime mortar.

    Bukit Pasoh Telok Ayer Kreta Ayer CHINATOWN A Walking Guide Travel through 14 amazing stops to experience the best of Chinatown in 6 hours. A quick introduction to the neighbourhoods Kreta Ayer Kreta Ayer means “water cart” in Malay. It refers to ox-drawn carts that brought water to the district in the 19th and 20th centuries. The water was drawn from wells at Ann Siang Hill. Back in those days, this area was known for its clusters of teahouses and opera theatres, and the infamous brothels, gambling houses and opium dens that lined the streets. Much of its sordid history has been cleaned up. However, remnants of its vibrant past are still present – especially during festive periods like the Lunar New Year and the Mid-Autumn celebrations. Telok Ayer Meaning “bay water” in Malay, Telok Ayer was at the shoreline where early immigrants disembarked from their long voyages. Designated a Chinese district by Stamford Raffles in 1822, this is the oldest neighbourhood in Chinatown. Covering Ann Siang and Club Street, this richly diverse area is packed with trendy bars and hipster cafés housed in beautifully conserved shophouses. Bukit Pasoh Located on a hill, Bukit Pasoh is lined with award-winning restaurants, boutique hotels, and conserved art deco shophouses. Once upon a time, earthen pots were produced here. Hence, its name – pasoh, which means pot in Malay. The most vibrant street in this area is Keong Saik Road – a former red-light district where gangs and vice once thrived. Today, it’s a hip enclave for stylish hotels, cool bars and great food.

  • Government Agencies to Conduct Trials on Digital Payment of Parking Charges
    PRESS RELEASE Government Agencies to Conduct Trials on digital payment of parking charges In line with our vision to become a Smart Nation, the Government is developing a digital parking mobile application to allow motorists to pay parking charges through their mobile devices. 2 The Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) and Housing & Development Board (HDB), in partnership with the Government Technology Agency of Singapore (GovTech), are developing a mobile application for motorists to use at public car parks that currently use paper coupons. 3 The mobile app will provide more convenience for motorists as they need not return to their vehicles to add more coupons to extend their parking session. The benefits of the app include: ● Paying for parking digitally: Motorists can use the app to key in their vehicle number, select the car park, indicate their parking duration and start parking. ● Calculating parking charges automatically: The app automatically calculates the charges that motorists have to pay based on their parking duration on a per minute basis. A refund will be given if motorists choose to end their parking session earlier. ● Extending parking session remotely: The app allows motorists to track the validity of their parking session. They can extend the duration of their parking session at their own time and convenience. 4 A trial will be conducted among public sector officers from May to June 2017 to test the functionalities of the app at selected public car parks in the city area. During this period, we will test the app, especially the payment module, to be confident of its robustness before we extend the trial to the general public.
