Interesting facts
Before the 1920s much of this district was low-lying swamp between the Rochor and Kallang rivers. The ground was built up partly with ash from the town incinerator that stood near Syed Alwi Road.
Beatty Road links Serangoon Road with Lavender Street, and a short unmarked stretch west of Serangoon Road, towards Race Course Road, is also mapped under the same name.
