About 80 Robinson Road
80 Robinson Road is a 28-storey office tower in Singapore's central business district (District 1), at postal code 068898. Leasing agents give its completion year as 1994. The ground floor has retail space, parking is on podium levels, and the office floors above are served by eight passenger lifts set in a rear service core. Agents describe a typical floor plate of about 11,000 sq ft, laid out without awkward corners and with windows on several sides.
The tower is used as multi-tenanted office space and is still being actively leased in 2026, with both bare and fitted suites on offer. Little has been published about its development history, so the facts below about the street come from the National Library Board's account of Robinson Road rather than the building itself.
Interesting facts
Robinson Road was laid out on land created by the Telok Ayer reclamation of 1879. Before that, the shoreline ran close to Telok Ayer Street.
The road takes its name from a Governor of the Straits Settlements who held office from 1877 to 1879.
The street was once home to the Eastern Extension Telegraph Company's 1927 building, which survives nearby as a conserved landmark, and to the offices of the Chinese newspaper Sin Chew Jit Poh.
Nearby
Telok Ayer MRT (Downtown Line) is about four minutes' walk and Raffles Place MRT (East-West and North-South Lines) about six minutes. Lau Pa Sat, the restored Victorian cast-iron market, is a couple of minutes away, and Amoy Street Food Centre is also close. Neighbouring towers include Robinson 77, Capital Tower and the CapitaSky development on the former CPF Building site. Telok Ayer Street's temples and shophouses lie one block inland.
