Murray Terrace, Singapore

Murray Terrace, Singapore (1 August 2017)


Murray Terrace (GPS: 1.27951, 103.84443) is a historic building in the Chinatown subzone of Outram, Singapore. Today it is hemmed in between Maxwell House and the Fairfield Methodist Church, off Maxwell Road. Built in 1929, Murray Terrace shows elements of the Art Deco and Art & Craft styles. It took its name after the now defunct Murray Street, which was named after Colonel A. Murray, the colonial engineer and surveyor for the British government of the Straits Settlements.

As with many of the old buildings in Singapore, Murray Terrace has undergone restoration, which unfortunately has erased its name from the façade. The refurbishment was completed in 2009 and the building is now occupied by tenants from the media and creative industry.

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.
