Kopites Supersonic November 30, 2017 Share November 30, 2017 Loved the pre renovated hawker. One level with wet and dirty floor. Not the current one. Most of the residences now occupied by 2nd or 3rd generation. Thone old folks already passed on.. Quite a number of those ground floor units (near cc) rented out to offices. The bomb shelter also lock up the last I passed by there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The carpark design sucks hahah, the support beams for the shelter are placed right where you open your doors so you'd either have to squueze out, move the car forward to open the door, or if you're blur blur like me, bang the door into it and get paint chips :(( But the food is good hahahahhaha 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor68 Turbocharged November 30, 2017 Share November 30, 2017 Just look at the old buildings design. They have fire safety in mind. Also, design wise, well thought. Somehow we lost those already. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mockngbrd Supersonic November 30, 2017 Share November 30, 2017 Tiong bahru good place to start for an sg story. Now full of amdk and rich ppl, all the ppl that originally gave the place it's charm all getting priced out. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
carloverguy2017 5th Gear November 30, 2017 Author Share November 30, 2017 Yes I used to live in Tiong Bahru area when I was young, for the good 16 years. I moved house twice, from Jalan Bukit Ho Swee to Jalan Klinik ( Beo Crescent ). Good food, good vibes at this old rustic place.Also many ganster fights every night. Haha.. those where the days. I couldn't find out where is the guided tour place, so unfortunately I couldn't enter the air raid shelter. It's a mouldy musky smell inside, can't stay inside for long either.

carloverguy2017 5th Gear December 1, 2017 Author Share December 1, 2017 apparently the Tiong Bahru air raid shelter tour was only organised for a limited time in 2012... now no more already... https://roots.sg/learn/resources/virtual-tours/tiong-bahru-air-raid-shelter It would be such a disappointment to entirely stopped allowing visitors to enter. It could be a very educational tour for our children as part of their Total Defence education and history lessons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
