with shops offering books, stationery, arts & crafts
materials & courses, musical instruments, pottery, festive
cards, religious items etc; also known as City of Books;
managed by BBCMA
Bras
Basah Complex is situated right in the middle of
town, between Cashin and Bain streets, south facing
North Bridge Rd and north facing Victoria St. This
area was also a traditional location for book shops.
Under the urban renewal plan, Bras Basah Complex was
built in the early 80s as a 25 storey high building,
with the 1st to 5th storeys being utilised for
commercial purpose and the rest for residential
flats.
The authority named it as Bras Basah Complex hoping
to retain the special feature of book stores. This
not only attracted many tenants who were once
well-known book merchants along Bras Basah Road, but
also book stores from other districts. After more
than 20 years, the other name for Bras Basah Complex
is “City of Books” (Shu Cheng).
On the completion of its upgrading, the authority
placed its name (in Chinese) In bright red on the
walls facing the main road and this has brought
about some complaints from people who had thought
that the BBCMA had replaced “City of Books” with Bai
Sheng Lou (Bras Basah Complex in Chinese). This goes
to show that the image of “City of Books” is already
well acknowledged.
Today, beside bookstores, BBC also has other trades,
like stationery, arts and crafts materials, musical
instruments, art gallery, framing, pottery, festive
cards, religious items, art/design and commercial
schools, watches, optical, food,
photo-copying/printing’ photo developing, sports
goods, CD/VCD, medical clinic, hair salon,
dressmaking and 24 hour convenience shop etc.
In order to better reflect the unique feature of
today’s Bras Basah Complex, we are now working
towards our target of being the “ACE Hub - Arts,
Cultural & Educational”.
