Maybank Tower, Singapore

Maybank Tower, Singapore (28 July 2017)


Maybank Tower (GPS: 1.28584, 103.85234) is a skyscraper in the Central Business District of Singapore. It is located at 2 Battery Road. The skyscraper is 32 storeys tall and has a height of 175.26 m (575 ft). It was completed in 2002.

Maybank Tower is the main Singapore office of the Malaysia-based Maybank. It comprises a 6-storey podium and a tower that tapers to appear as a bamboo shoot. The façade is clad in double-glaced blue reflective glass and aluminium curtain wall panels.

On 18 September, 2010, a fire was reported on the building. It was discovered by a patrolling security guard. The fire damaged two letters of the bank logo. There were no injuries or structural damage to the building.

The site of Maybank Tower has been previously occupied by Malayan Banking, the precursor of Maybank. Before that, it was the site of the British-era department store, Whiteaways, which also has branches in other cities of the Malay Peninsula - the Whiteaways Building in Penang, for example, is still standing, and is today one of the historic buildings in the George Town World Heritage Site.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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