These flats featured rounded balconies, flat rooftops and the famous spiral staircases.
These flats are protected under Tiong Bahru Heritage Buildings. They cannot be demolished without the government's permission. You can read more on these flats from
source.
These newer taller buildings are private condominiums.
It is directly opposite the MRT Station of Tiong Bahru. The place where I am standing is Tiong Bahru Shopping Mall.
This condominium is so tall that I have to squat down and bend my head real low to try to take the whole building...lol. I still did not capture the lower few floors. I think this condominium is at least more than forty stories high.

Those buildings are amazing. I am impressed by how what is so old looks so new. Styles change slowly!
Alice: What neat captures of the sky and large buildings.
I'm sure there's a good view of the city from the upper levels.
Great shots Alice, those condos are impressive.
Have a great weekend!
