Pearl's Hill Terrace

I was busy but still managed to spend a morning visiting the Former Combined Operations Room Exhibition at 195, Pearl's Hill Terrace. I did a sketch at the courtyard while others explored the interior spaces. The exhibition can only take 15 people at a time and we had a good understanding of how people there worked and protected us. More information of the FCOR exhibition at this link.

Did you know the red telephone ☎️ is direct line to LKY office in the early days?

Communicable Disease Centre

We had the opportunity to sketch the former Communicable Disease Centre (CDC) under the "Discovering SIngapore's Best Kept Secret" series led by Jerome Lim. This is the administration block 804. Formerly known as Infectious Diseases Hospital and Middleton Hospital, you can find out more from Jerome's blog.



This is the detail from the left of the long sketch. I love this part for its horizontality, verticality, diagonal lines, small and big shapes, tones and layering. Its the block 872 at CDC.
