The building is 33 storeys tall, a three-level basement, and stands at a height of 151 m (497 ft). It was built in 1993 in the late-modernist architectural style, with generous use of aluminium, glass and steel. The architects who designed it were Murphy/Jahn Inc Architects and Architects 61.
Chevron House was originally called Caltex House. To its left is Singapore Land Tower while to its right is Hitachi Tower, which shares the same 4-storey podium with it. The building was developed by CapitaLand, the real-estate company which owns many of the buildings in Singapore. In September 2007 it was acquired by Goldman Sachs for S$730 million, giving CapitaLand a profit of S$150.8 million.
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
