Ya, the poodle treated it as cold case & many Sporean just forgot this case. Btw, I attach this old map of Queenstown during 1993 for your reference. Cheers!
Ah yes, the Remarkables...

As for Singapore's Queenstown, at least it has:

But it's probably not as remarkable! LOL

I still have 2 full days left in Singapore, decided to leave on Tuesday.
That's true. But though our Queenstown is not so pretty, it has its own charm and a special place in the hearts of local Queenstowners with fond memories. It is truly being missed.
Most picturesque part of Queenstown should be the area behind tanglin halt where the railway tracks are...from there to Portsdown road with the colonial black and white houses....believed area still untouched now.
There was the Sande club there later civil service club (presently Temasek Club).
Railway tracks had been removed buddy
Hey guys I really don't know where to post this but thought Ghim Moh is not far away from Queenstown so here is it. I just came back from Ghim Moh Market breakfast. Primary objective is this:

The last time I've been to Queenstown-Redhill area was about a year ago with GMS and LTB to Zi Yean Dim Sum. Not bad. But in later months, LTB informed that price is upped but standard is dropped. So, we stopped going there anymore. LTB is the expert of eating around Queenstown-Redhill area.
Good morning Ramsey, I know GMS = Goh Meng Seng how about LTB? I know we have a leetahbar here I guess its not him right?
Old Queenstown
Yah, those good'ol days. Now, ... more high rise buildings ? It's a very old estate with no new life. Invigorating it with the potion of youth ?
All photos taken from MRT train,
Tah ChunOng Departmental Store bus-stop. Behind the green space used to be Tah Chung and further is what used to be the food centre. See the road behing the bus-stop? Used to be carpark of TAH Chung.
2-Storey market, see behind building is the Q'town Polyclinic. Van driving on same carpark drive way from Tah Chung.
Q'town Cinema & Bowl, NTUC is gone, blk 39A (bird shop) is gone. Now could see Q'town library clearly. Strange why cidnema still don't tear down.
