Parkview Square, Singapore

One of the most expensive office buildings in the city

Parkview Square.

Parkview Square is an office high-rise building in Singapore. It was completed in 2002 in an Art deco style. It's located in Singapore's central district and stands out with its design and height (144m, 24 floors), because it's surrounded by parks and smaller buildings. I like this skyscraper, but I think it doesn't fit well in Singapore's architecture, it's too different, too unique. It looks massive from close, like a monumental palace, that could stay somewhere in Europe, rather than in Asia. It's definitely one of Singapore's most notable skyscrapers.

I took this photo in January 2005.
