Balestier Road

Finally decided to join the sketchwalk for the last 30mins. Good to do speed sketching today.

Balestier Point on the right that inspired by Habitat by Moshe Safdie, was designed by Chan Fook Pong of RDC Architects in 1986. I had personally met the late Chan in the 80s with my client.

Sim Kwang Ho Shophouses (沈廣合)on the left were owned by a lady named Sim Cheng Neo and they were designed by Westerhout and Oman in 1926.

Size: 390 x 210 mm
Medium: ink and wash

I also did a sketch of the same view in 2011 as below and it was posted here.
