Suburban Singapore: Landscape of Change
This paper examines a suburban area in Singapore as an example of how that landscape has undergone change. Using primary source documents, the findings suggest that a range of both biophysical and cultural factors influenced the patterns of change. The nature of the terrain, the regulation of settlement by the colonial government, the ever shifting economic context and emerging ideas of ‘Garden City’ are some of those factors. In the suburb examined, Siglap, a neo-English housing estate and a kampong settlement co-exist for a period, but the suburban morphology ultimately supplants the kampong form.
