WATERFRONT. A PLACE THAT IS ALWAYS HAPPENING AND FULL OF HAPPINESS. A PLACE WHICH PEOPLE AND ARCHITECTURE MEETS. WATERFRONT ACT AS A LANDMARK FOR PEOPLE TO MEET AND GATHER. IN EARLY 1800S, WATERFRONTS IN SINGAPORE – WHICH IS FORMERLY CALLED TRADING PORTS, ACT AS IMPORTANT GATHERING VENUES WHERE PEOPLE CLUSTURED FOR ALL SORT OF ACTIVITIES, WITH THE FAMOUS PORTS BEING CLARKE QUAY (FKA RIVER & GODOWNS) AND RAFFLES PLACE (BOAT QUAY). CENTURIES LATER, THE RULES REMAIN UNCHANGED, THE ONLY THING THAT IS CHANGING IS THE APPEARANCE AND THE NAME. THESE PLACES ARE STILL USED FOR TRADING, OR WE CALLED IT, SHOPPING, SINGAPORE WATERFRONTS ARE FULL OF SHOPPING MALLS, PUBS AND RESTAURANTS WHICH MADE ITSELF TO AN INTERNATIONAL PLATFORM, FONDED BY FOREIGNERS & TOURISTS. MY NAME IS TAN WEN HAO. MY MISSION IS TO ENCAPSULATE THE ESSENCES OF PEOPLE + ACTIVITIES + ARCHITECTURE INTO THIS BOOK BY INTRODUCING SINGAPORE WATERFRONTS AND SHOW YOU HOW PEOPLE UTILISE THESE PLACES.
