History of Tanjong Pagar
Tanjong Pagar is located in the southern end of downtown Singapore. This former fishing village best capture’s Singapore’s transformation into the vibrant city-state it is today. Tanjong Pagar was once a sleepy fishing village and its name, a Malay word that means ‘’cape of stakes” reflects its original state. The kelongs for fishing that were situated here inspired the area’s name.
Tanjong Pagar has undergone various changes over the years while conserving its rich history and culture. Today, the area is a critical part of the city. It houses a blend of cultural residential and commercial properties. Tanjong Pagar also ranks among the top and advanced container ports. Parts of it have been marked for development under the Greater Southern Waterfront Project.
Prior to the arrival of the British, fishing was the main activity here. In the early 19th century, sea nomads or Orang Laut and Chinese inhabitants started occupying the areas between the city and the docs. In 1904, a rickshaw station was built to serve the wealthy customers working at the port.
Because of the area’s fertile soil, and the hilly terrain, the early settlers started farming fruits, nutmeg, and gambier before the 1950s. Fishing and farming remained the key activities for a long time with little improvement in the living conditions.
The growing population saw the rise of shophouses to offer basic necessities. The houses were operated by families who lived in the same building. The lower floor housed the shop while occupants took the upper floor.
Fast-forward, Tanjong Pagar is a flourishing neighbourhood packed with shops, entertainment joints and restaurants. The area is enriched with many karaoke bars, clubs, pubs, restaurants, and cafes. It is among the best dining destinations offering a variety of foods from local Chinese dishes to international fare like Russian, Japanese, Korean and Western.
The future is even promising with plenty of developments in the pipeline. Tanjong Pagar is set to be transformed under the Greater Southern Waterfront project to about three times Marina Bay, in size. The plans will be undertaken under the Urban Redevelopment Authority’s Master Plan program. That means the residents can look forward to improved access to lifestyle amenities of different kinds.
