Information About
This 1995 photograph shows terraced houses, at River Valley Road (between Kay Poh Road and Hoot Kiam Road). There were two roads, which ran on either side of the Singapore River, could have been named as such as the river looked like a valley between Fort Canning Hill and Pearl's Hill. Today, only one road remains as River Valley Road, while the other has been renamed Havelock Road. Title devised by Library staff.
