Haha, well done ^^

There's one good thing about the ugly buildings, it's that you can't see them when u're on the top of them ;-)
Great shots of the Singapore river ! :-)

@hyacinthus

logical and correct :yes:

@redstone

the 23rd floor was still being fitted out, so I went to the 22nd floor. The floor-plates are HUGE, feels like a hall inside :eek:

You have to thank me for it then... heh. :D

Views facing the Singapore River are much more pleasing than those facing Prudential Tower :cool:

It's actually difficult to get an idea of the floorplates size from this shot... No point of comparison... How tall of the ceiling ?

RafflesCity
February 18th, 2005, 06:19 AM
hmm..I think the length of the floorplate is twice what you can see in my pic. Basically the shape is rectangular and it takes a long time walking from one end to the other

as for the ceiling..dont have a figure or reference for comparison, except that it feels like a hall inside! I think its at least 3m

Looked at the pics again. Very nice!:D

Btw, how did you find the lobbies? Were they like detached cylinders?

RafflesCity

Thanks :cool:

@Cliff, see this pic?

There are 2 such cylindrical enclosures at the base of the building. The numbers on the glass walls indicate which floors are served by the lobbies.
