Kampong Glam's Haji Lane, Arab Street and Sultan Mosque, Bugis Street's bazaars and the Beach Road arts and design scene give the district a creative, cosmopolitan buzz.

Growth & URA Master Plan outlook

The Ophir-Rochor corridor and Beach Road/Kampong Glam rejuvenation continue to add offices, hotels and homes, strengthening D7's live-work-play appeal on the CBD's edge.
