Land around Marina Bay was reclaimed throughout the 1970s,
1980s and 1990s. The first detailed land use plan was exhibited in 1992.
Planners have worked on this project from the 1970s until today.
Interesting facts from the photos.
Noticeably, Marina Centre where Mandarin and Pan Pacific Hotel are, were not there in 1976. It was just a piece of reclaimed land in 1976. The only way to drive from Marina Centre to Shenton Way in the 80's was via the Anderson Bridge in front of Fullerton Hotel. The Esplanade Bridge was only up after 1992. Very interesting photos!
