About CRU Centre

CRU Centre is a small office building at 18 Verdun Road, Singapore 207280, in District 8 (Little India, Farrer Park). OneMap records the building under this name. It is the base of Cru Singapore, a Christian organisation, whose media ministry gives its address as #02-01 Cru Centre and runs a resource centre there selling Bibles, books and study materials. The building is strata-titled under MCST Plan No. 2150.

Interesting facts

  • Verdun Road recalls the 1916 Battle of Verdun in France. From 1926 the colonial government named newly opened roads in this district after First World War personalities and battle sites.

  • The land here was once swamp. It was filled from the 1920s, partly with ash from an incinerator near Syed Alwi Road, before the present street grid was built.

  • City Square Mall, a short walk away, stands on the site of the former New World Amusement Park.
