People's Park Complex 622

People's Park Complex stands as one of Chinatown's most recognizable landmarks. This co-living apartment puts you in a 31-storey Brutalist icon with views stretching across Chinatown to the CBD. Completed in 1973, the building was Singapore's first multi-use development and featured the country's first shopping centre atrium, making it both an architectural milestone and a piece of the nation's urban renewal history. The complex was built on the grounds of the former People's Park Market, once beloved by the area's working class as a social and commercial hub, and that energy persists today in the shopping levels below. Chinatown is a 5-minute walk from hawker food and wet market shopping, while the nearby Keong Saik Road offers the neighbourhood's concentration of bars, restaurants, and cafes that have transformed the street in recent years. The Outram neighbourhood blends traditional shophouses with hipster cafes and trendy boutiques, where Thian Hock Keng Temple (Singapore's oldest Hokkien temple) sits alongside the vibrant Chinatown Street Market.
