It's a FULL CIRCLE by 2025

3 stations close to the heart of Singapore's Central Business District - Keppel, Cantonment and Prince Edward - will complete the Circle Line and allow commuters to transfer between MRT lines without entering the city centre.

Marina Bay - now and then

The top photo was taken in the 70s. The photo below was taken from the same angle. The only visible buildings I can use as a reference in the old photo which can be found in the new photo is The Custom House and Clifford Pier, which are located at the bottom left of the photos. 

Visibly, we now have The Sail and The Marina Bay Financial Centre (MBFC) forming part of the new Marina Bay Skyline.

Marina Bay - 15 years ago

The picture below shows how Marina Bay was like 15 years ago. The empty land was reclaimed from the sea.

15 years later, see how the bay is transformed. Visibly, we have the casino, Marina Bay Financial Centre, The Sail and the floating Platform. Amazing!

How Marina Bay was reclaimed from the sea

I came across these interesting photos in the internet showing how the whole Marina Bay was carved out of the sea. The whole Marina area are made up of Marina East, Marina Center and Marina South. Marina Bay is enclose by Marina Center and Marina South.

Brewerkz is still the Best!

Of late, craft beer is getting popular. There are more than a dozen of such breweries in town.  One of the oldest micro breweries is none other than the Brewerkz at Clark Quay. Brewerkz has been in business at Riverside Point at Clark Quay since the nineties. After all these years, it is still the best micro brewery in town in terms of quality, variety and pricing. You can get half a litre (a pint) for just $7 during happy hour.

Beer anybody?

Cycle to Marina Bay

Cycling route to Marina Bay

It is now possible to cycle to Marina Bay directly from East Coast Park without having to go through Tanjong Rhu. This is a great news to cyclists like me. This implies that the whole Gardens by the  bay, Marina South and Marina Bay is reachable via the Park Connector without having to compete with the motorized vehicles. This is a big step forward. It is one step closer to achieving the Island wide Park Connector network dream!
