By 1970, Queenstown had about 19,000 dwelling units housing more than 100,000 residents. © National Heritage Board As the new town undergoes redevelopment to house more people, some significant old buildings have been conserved as identity markers. 5 Church of the Blessed Sacrament 1 Commonwealth Drive The church, designed by architect Y. G. Dowsett, was officially opened in 1965, complementing Queenstown's growth as Singapore's first satellite town. Its most iconic feature is the dramatically structured slate roof with folds looking like a tent to symbolise the “tent of meeting” in the Old Testament of the Bible. The three main entrances have multi-coloured glass ventilation panels which are remarkably vibrant when viewed from the inside. Visitors and residents also fondly refer to the building as the “origami church” at Queensway.

  • Neighborhood Differentiation and Travel Patterns in Singapore
    SMART-FM Working Paper (not for quotation or citation) Neighborhood Differentiation and Travel Patterns in Singapore Clio Andris, SMART Future Urban Mobility IRG PART 1: INTRODUCTION There have been many initiatives within the Singaporean government to improve quality of life for Singaporeans and visitors through transit infrastructure, transit demand management, land use planning initiatives and housing. The result of this investiture made by agencies such as URA, HDB, SLA, LTA, SMRT and others, transportation in Singapore seems to support widespread mobility for Singaporeans traveling to work, school, shopping districts and recreational activities, and plans have yielded one of the best transit systems in the world. Moreover, Singapore has provided its residents high levels of transportation mobility despite challenges of high population density and rapid changes in development. Nevertheless, in this time of advancing urbanization, we are interested in which aspects of life, movement and socialization are important for modeling Singaporean travel demand needs in the present and future, with respect to rising income levels, demographic changes, and increased need for redevelopment. Future densification and urbanization will require new attention to the impacts on travel patterns as well as a better understanding of physical and social forces. This predicament calls for richer modeling capabilities. Recently, a shift toward activity-based modeling has been successful in capturing more biographical, or true-to-life view of travel decisions of citizens.
