You asked me who the Tiong Bahru architects were and did they designed any ICONIC buildings subsequently.<BR/><BR/>I'm not too sure YET. I've tried to google and only Robert F.N. Kan showed up.<BR/><BR/>I will continue to find out more information. <BR/><BR/>Thru my search, I also found out the Boys' Brigade in Singapore could be founded by the chief of Singapore’s colonial-period re-housing agency, The Singapore Improvement Trust (SIT).<BR/><BR/>Both of them shared the same name, J.M. Fraser and The BB was founded in 1930, during the period When JM Fraser was chief of the SIT.<BR/><BR/>I was rather active with the Boys' Brigade during my primary and secondary school days and this discovery excites me.<BR/><BR/>I may called up the BB HQ to find out...or dig deeper at the library....if I have the time.<BR/><BR/>Cheers.SGalfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17640179613670014644noreply@blogger.com
