The idea for a national garden was planted in 1822 when Sir Stamford Raffles, the founder of modern Singapore, developed the first Botanical and Experimental Garden at Fort Canning. In 1859, the Singapore Botanic Gardens was established at the Tanglin site and in the 160 years past, it has flourished from a pleasure garden for the colonial community to a place cherished by all Singaporeans, a botanical institution known internationally. Singapore’s greening journey took root in the 1960s when founding Prime Minister, Mr Lee Kuan Yew planted a Mempat Tree at Farrer Circus. This kickstarted a national effort for tree planting, sowing the seed of a green home where beautiful parks and green belts would be the birthright of every Singaporean. Today, the intricate lattice of greenery we have woven into the cityscape supports thriving biodiversity and provides residents with a quality living environment. This not only draws the appreciation and marvel of visitors, but has become a part of our national identity.

  • ANNEX 1 KALLANG RIVERSIDE URA Envisions Kallang Riverside to Be a New Lifestyle Precinct by the Edge of the City 1 As Part Of
    ANNEX 1 KALLANG RIVERSIDE URA envisions Kallang Riverside to be a new lifestyle precinct by the edge of the city 1 As part of the Draft Master Plan 2008, the blueprint for Kallang Riverside was unveiled by the URA. The vision for Kallang Riverside is to transform it into a new lifestyle precinct by the edge of the city, offering distinctive waterfront homes with a mix of offices, hotels, and retail and entertainment facilities set against beautiful beachfronts with breathtaking views of the city skyline. 2 Kallang Riverside is one of the three commercial hubs outside the city centre that will be developed to provide alternatives for businesses and jobs closer to homes. The other two commercial hubs are Jurong Lake District and Paya Lebar Central. 3 Kallang Riverside refers to the areas on both sides of the Kallang River, bounded by Nicoll Highway, Kallang Road and Sims Way. It boasts a wide expanse of beaches and greenery, located at the end of the Greater Marina Bay. It is just 4km away from the city and is in close proximity to key attractions like the Sports Hub, Gardens by the Bay and Marina Bay. Key proposals 4 Two complementary precincts will be developed, on the west and east sides of Kallang river; capitalising on the beautiful beaches and existing mature greenery. The west side of the river will offer distinctive waterfront homes with a beachfront setting while the east side of the river will have quality office space with a mix of hotel, entertainment and retail uses. 5 The key proposals for Kallang Riverside are: a) Develop a unique, distinctive residential enclave on the west of Kallang River set in a lush park setting with views of the waterfront; b) Create a whole new lifestyle hub in an intimate setting, with a variety of vibrant shops, restaurants, entertainment and lifestyle uses; and c) Provide easy accessibility from Lavender and Kallang MRT stations to attractions like the beachfront and the adjacent Sports Hub, with a network of second-storey and street-level walkways.
