Picture of the day (Old but New)


Picture of the day (Old but New)

Picture depicts refurbished shophouses near Fu Lu Shou complex. Why does Singapore preserve old building? Why not just remove them to make space for more high rise buildings? Is it because these shophouses look beautiful in the heart of town or is it to create a sense of nostalgia, for the older generation? I believe that it tells a story of the past so that the younger generation would appreciate and see the transformation of Singapore from its early days.It is part of Singapore's history.What if it wasn't preserved? What landmarks do you think its important to preserve?
