Coleman Street, Singapore

Coleman Street, Singapore (28 July 2017)


Coleman Street is one of the streets in downtown Singapore. It starts at Canning Rise, just ahead of the intersection with Hill Street and Armenian Street, and ends at the junction with St Andrew's Road. In between it intersects with North Bridge Road and forms junctions with Colombo Court and Coleman Lane.

Coleman Street was named after George Drumgold Coleman (1795-1844), the famous 19th century architect who designed many of the buildings in Singapore. Born in Ireland, he was reponsible in drafting the layout of the 1822 Jackson Plan of Singapore for Stamford Raffles. He had his home on 3 Coleman Street.

About this website

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While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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.
