I have passed this building at the Great Eastern Centre, many a time and never fully paid attention to the roman like columns. Roman columns in the middle of the Singapore Financial District at Pickering Street? This place reminds me of Europe, including the trees with temperate like dark branches and apple green leaves. The wild twisting branches give it away as the tropics.

Are these real (as in built during the colonial era) or “fake”? I like the ones at the old Supreme Court, or was it the Parliament House. The one facing the Padang…
I think these are fake, built to give the building a kind of grandeur.
