This treasure from the National Archives of Singapore is the building plan to the Municipal Building. If you have never in your life heard about the Municipal Building in Singapore, that’s because you are probably born after 1951, when it was named City Hall.

That’s not the City Hall interchange, either! The grand building, overlooking the Padang, was built between 1926 and 1929 and designed by architect F. D. Meadows. It brought under one roof the branches of the municipal departments like water, electricity and road works.
