Hello Tanjong Pagar! Mini Series

Discover the multi-layered history of the precinct of Tanjong Pagar - where so much of Singapore's urban (re)development took place over the centuries. Join us as we explore how the port in the area shaped the settlements in this district and the variety of communities that came to live, work, and play here. Not forgetting the former St Andrew's Mission Hospital at 5 Kadayanallur Street - where many women and children received much needed medical support in the early 20th century - and how one of Singapore's earliest examples of modernist architecture still stands relevant today.
