Celebrating Raffles Place

As we commemorate 61 years of Singapore’s independence, we also celebrate over 200 years of Raffles Place, our precinct that has witnessed the nation’s transformation across two centuries. From the bustling trading hub known formally as Commercial Square since the 1820s to the vibrant central business district it is today, Raffles Place stands at the crossroads of Singapore’s heritage and innovation, always at the heart of what’s to come.

If you work here, you’ve likely walked its streets countless times without realising the rich history beneath your feet. With historic landmarks of the past interspersed between gleaming skyscrapers of the present, Raffles Place offers a glimpse into Singapore’s remarkable journey through time. 

This National Day, celebrate the stories, heritage and community that bring Raffles Place to life.
