[h=1]13.10.12 - Serangoon Gardens Trail[/h]Updated <abbr title="Saturday, November 16, 2013 at 1:46am" data-utime="1384537577" class="timestamp">21 hours ago</abbr> · Taken in Serangoon Garden Estate, Singapore

From Serangoon Garden Circus to CHIJ Our Lady of Good Counsel, passing by Serangoon Gardens Country Club, My Village (where the old Paramount Theatre used to stand), to where the old Serangoon Gardens Community Centre used to be and the nearby Ling Kwang Home for Senior Citizens, and finally, Church of St. Francis Xavier, residents experienced a nostalgic morning walk with MP Sylvia Lim.

We were indeed very honoured to have local residents who have stayed in Serangoon Gardens for more than half a century, to lead the walk, introducing various places to us, and told us stories about life in the Gardens.

Oh, by the way, have i mentioned that Serangoon Gardens is also known as "Ang Sar Lee" in Hokkien, meaning "red roofs"? The term is used to describe the red-roofed houses originally built to house the British soldiers in the 1950s. It is no wonder that many roads in the Gardens take the names of streets and towns in England, such as Chartwell, Cardiff, Kensington and the like. This is just one of the interesting facts we learnt during the trail.

Pritam Singh

Received some rather disturbing news at around lunch today about a portion of a roof parapet which dislodged at Blk 147, Bedok Reservoir Road. Luckily, no one was hurt. Went down to the site, understand that the AHPETC and HDB staff have assessed the damage. The Town Council has activated its building contractor to comb the facade of the block and to carry out repairs to all surfaces with suspicious cracks and signs of debonding. Checks and repairs will also be carried out to other nearby blocks in the precinct which show signs of similar defects. A small investment will be made by the Town Council in a pair of binoculars to include routine checks to such high areas, which can only be done from ground level. Please do not hesitate to contact me on any query pertaining to this incident. Thank you.
