George Street, Singapore

George Street, Singapore

George Street is a minor road in downtown Singapore. It has the length of just one city block. A one-way street, it connects South Canal Road to Pickering Street, separating One George Street from Pickering Operations Complex.

According to Singapore Street Names, George Street was named after trader W.R. George who happens to be the son-in-low of Colonel Farquhar (and by that, I suppose, William Farquhar). George founded two companies, d'Almeida & Company and Stottiswoode & Company. His residential property occupied the site of present-day Raffles Hotel.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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