omg!! amazing pictures! you really really capture the sharpness of the building! do you have any of the plaza between the two buildings?

thanks

err..I was there but didnt really take the plaza...however it is nice and open, but if you're walking past the Gateway at the front, it is very windy

All amazing shots, looks so surreal. I would really like to go there someday to take pics.:)

Then look like what.....jiuchengao ah?

no - jiuchengao looks greasy and sticky and flaccid. the gateway is sleek, refined, super-smooth (at least it looks to be), and monolithic. perhaps a giant sculpture.

Nice pics there, great angles for the shots.

Sleek! I think I'll cut my fingertips when touching the corner :D

oh my! That must have been taken in the 90s!

I'm trying to find an absolutely surreal Gateway pic. I put it under 'Surrealist Pictures' thread, but the thread is now gone, and I'm having a hard time finding it on A2O... :(

try going to the building and taking pics of it..even if you cant find a good pic, the experience there is rather surreal :)

FOUND IT!!!!

flat and sharp

How come The Gateway was not built?

It was supposed to be built in the downtown core area.

http://www.emporis.com/en/wm/cx/?id=106295
This website shows the yet to be built building.
Since it said "never built". Will it have a chance to be built?

Looks like PSA Building, hehe. DOn't know why it isn't built, but there are alot of buildings in Singapore that arn't built.
