Dakota Crescent, Singapore

Dakota Crescent in Geylang, SingaporeDakota 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



Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
