Throwback to 1980s Tampines: Round Market and Stadium Before Our Tampines Hub
Our Tampines Hub has shared a throwback to 1980s Tampines, before the integrated development became the vibrant heart of the neighbourhood. The featured photograph captures Tampines Round Market and the surrounding estate, taken by photographer Teoh Hin Huat and courtesy of the Housing & Development Board. The post invites residents to reflect on the town's journey from quiet green spaces and early HDB blocks to the bustling mega-hub of today.
Tampines Stadium Redevelopment, 28 November 2014
An aerial view dated 28 November 2014 documents Tampines Stadium during its early redevelopment phase. Ground-level excavation, cranes, rebar frameworks and temporary structures marked the start of works for the new 50,000-seat venue, which replaced the old 1936 structure. Residential blocks and commercial complexes already surrounded the site at the time.
Our Tampines Hub is asking residents to share their favourite throwback memories of Tampines in the comments of its Facebook post.
