About Waterloo Apartments

Waterloo Apartments is a 30-unit private residential block at 64 Waterloo Street in District 7 (Beach Road, Bugis, Rochor). According to EdgeProp it was completed in 1989 and sits on a 999-year lease that started on 7 August 1832. It is managed by MCST 1532. Its neighbour at number 62, Min Yuan, is of the same age and tenure.

The block stands in the Bras Basah.Bugis arts and heritage precinct. Rather than shops and offices, its neighbours are arts houses, places of worship and campuses, which gives the street a quieter feel than nearby Bencoolen Street or Victoria Street, even though it is in the middle of the city.

Interesting facts

  • Several old buildings on Waterloo Street were turned into homes for arts groups under an arts housing scheme. They include the Stamford Arts Centre and the Singapore Calligraphy Centre.

  • The northern end of the street was rebuilt as a pedestrian mall in 1998 to cope with the crowds visiting Kwan Im Thong Hood Cho Temple and Sri Krishnan Temple.

  • The street was one-way for decades and was converted to two-way traffic in 2016.

  • The southern end of Waterloo Street was shortened when Singapore Management University built its city campus, which opened in the mid-2000s, followed by Bras Basah MRT station in 2010.
