When I 1st arrived in S’pore in ‘93, this plot was a water-filled harbor. Over 4 years I watched it get drained, reclaimed, and planted with trees to help stabilize the soil. I returned to S’pore again to work there in ‘08, and watched this construction take place. Very impressive!

"You can't think about it as individual buildings, you have to think about it as a piece of city. It's much more of a symphony than it is a sonata." I couldn't have summarised this any better myself having just been last month. This is why Singapore is so far ahead in terms its architecture and city planning, because it all just works together so beautifully. The interconnectivity and accessibility is unlike anything I've ever seen, a true marvel of engineering resulting from nothing short of pure ambition.
