About Rangoon Apartment
Rangoon Apartment is a small strata-titled residential block at 190 Rangoon Road, Singapore 218447, in District 8 (Farrer Park, Serangoon Road). OneMap records the address but does not attach a building name to it, so the name Rangoon Apartment comes from the strata records rather than the national map. It is managed by MCST 2029. The block stands towards the higher-numbered end of the road, a few numbers up from Cherryloft at 180 and 182 Rangoon Road.
Interesting facts
The best-known restaurant on the street is a few doors away at 208 Rangoon Road. It serves peppery Teochew-style bak kut teh and has been there since 1988.
Before moving to Rangoon Road, that business operated inside the New World Amusement Park off Jalan Besar, which closed in 1987.
Rangoon is the old name of Yangon in Myanmar. Several roads nearby, such as Mandalay Road and Irrawaddy Road, share the Burmese theme.
Nearby
The nearest station is Farrer Park (North East Line), about ten minutes away on foot. Pek Kio Market and Food Centre at Cambridge Road and Owen Road is close, as are the coffee shops along Rangoon Road.
