Dakota Crescent, Singapore

Dakota Crescent in Geylang, Singapore (27 July 2017)


Dakota Crescent (GPS: 1.3076, 103.8883) is a housing estate in Geylang, Singapore. It is also the name of the road serving the area.

The flats at Dakota Crescent are some of the oldest housing estates in Singapore. They were built by the Singapore Investment Trust (SIT), the precursor to today's Housing Development Board (HDB).

Some 15 blocks here were demolished and their site redeveloped into new condominiums, namely Dakota Residences and Waterbank at Dakota. The earliest residents of Dakota Crescent were those displaced by the major fire that broke out at Kampong Koo Chye on 5 April, 1958, an area today known as Lorong 3 Geylang.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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