Completed in 1965, it
once stood in stark contrast to its earlier neighbours — mostly village houses
constructed of attap and wood.
Held just months after Singapore’s independence, the opening ceremony of the post office was graced by then-Minister of State for Education, Rahim Ishak. Attendees included Singaporean men and women of all races, dressed to the nines in formal attire — ranging from the Western suit to Peranakan kebaya.
