The list of 1970s era Singaporean Brutalist icons under threat of demolition is just about as long as the national list of Brutalist icons. Last week, I wrote about the Pearl Bank Apartment, where demolition is actively underway with very little time remaining for conservation. Today, I’m happy to write about the Golden Mile Complex, once known as the Woh Hup Complex. Built in 1967, it was the first project to come out of the HDB Urban Renewal Department’s ‘Sales of Sites’ program. Unusually, for such a large project in the newly independent city-state, local architects were hired to design it; Gan Eng Oon, William S.W. Lim, and Tay Kheng Soon of Design Partnership, now known as DP Architects. While others hired foreign architects, like for IM Pei’s OCBC tower, the Singapore-born crew helped to create this behemoth in the tropics, owned & managed by Singapura Developments.
