BanCoe Hypersonic October 5, 2016 Share October 5, 2016 How many times has this occurred, how many buildings we have in SG? Arrive at the statistics.... You get the answers from our ministars when you tried to ask difficult questions. Best to just move forward... Spalling concrete has been there around since like very long time .... 40 years?? , Move on ... No major injuries; Like an eyesore but some flats have been affected more and some have got it fixed by govt. ; My parents old place (private) also kenna this spalling (was 35 years old) n got enbloc so no history of it after that; some places I have seen even the wire mesh exposed rusty rusty Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause even after hdb announced on enbloc, its still need to take at least 5 years for administration works and building of flats to be completed. By the time when residents finally moved out, think flats maybe near 50 years old liao if the flats got enbloc after 40 years plus?! Lol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the time when residents finally moved out, think flats maybe near 50 years old liao if the flats got enbloc after 40 years plus?! Lol. Its all dependent on the Govt. Rochore centre was built in 1977 and 2017 its going to be demolished to make way in the name of development and its prime commercial land (in govt view i'm sure) - that 40 years perfect..in fact most of the tenants and residents have vacated; After that is those Waterloo Street HDB apts might also have to go (akan datang soon , just speculating) as they are in CBD already Siglap Road flats , i was told were built in 1963 , now also almost fully vacated ... thats over 50 years Of course they wont built something immediately unless if there is a pressing need...... they will leave it as an empty field initially always for a few years ...... same thing for the Eunos HDB workshops and also in old Blanco Court and also the Sungei road area Edited October 6, 2016 by BanCoe 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BanCoe Hypersonic October 6, 2016 Share October 6, 2016 isn't that already happening? Yeap and that the approximate number to go by +/- 10% depending on govt suka suka wish Maybe they might preserve the Siglap flats .... no body knows like what they did to the Tiong Bahru ones and make them atas atas and trendy...... and sort of " preserve" the sleepy Siglap fishing or SIT status of the 60's Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
