Standard Chartered Building (GPS: 1.28556, 103.8517) is a skyscraper in downtown Singapore. It is located at Battery Road, occupying the site that has been used by Standard Chartered since 1859, when it was known as the Chartered Bank of India, Australia and China.
The Standard Chartered Building is 44 storeys tall and was completed in 1984. At the time of its completion, it was the largest Standard Chartered building in the world and also the largest investment by the bank up to that time. The building housed that bank's corporate office until 2011, when it relocated to the Marina Bay Financial Centre.
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While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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.
