Singapore Naval Base Housing - 29 Admiralty Road 196553 viewsA typical three bedroomed semidetached bungalow built around 1929.

Singapore Naval Base Housing - Wellington Road 199847 viewsView of housing on Wellington Road. Picture taken from the same spot as the photo taken in 1929 showing the houses under construction. In 1998 these houses were leased to the US Navy for their staff and families. It was interesting to learn that 'folklore' amongst the USN families was that these houses were built by the Japanese during occupation for their officers using forced British labour. The logic - each house had a 'Geisha' room at the rear. I guess it did look like a Geisha room but it was actually there for the Amah! Feb 19, 2025
