Lorong Lew Lian tour. Former cemetery or durian plantation. No ghosts but still got Durian trees.

Lorong Lew Lian tour. Formerly cemetery or durian plantation. This is exact location of 10 durian trees now. As part of making episodes regarding HDB estates, today I am visiting and exploring Lorong Lew Lian. Lorong Lew Lian is just 5 minutes from Serangoon station North East line, exit D. The construction of the Lorong Lew Lian flats began in February 1976, with almost 1,000 units and shops housed in eight HDB blocks, numbered 1 to 8. The blocks were completed one-and-a-half year later. The Lorong Lew Lian flats’ 99-year leases kicked off in May 1978. More than four decades have since passed. It is one of the oldest HDB estates in Singapore. Aimed at making Lorong Lew Lian a self-sufficient estate, many public amenities were added shortly after the completion of the flats, including a kindergarten (in 1978), a community centre (between Block 2 and 3) and a public basketball court (also in 1978) to promote a healthy lifestyle for the youths. Today, it is again undergoing another upgrading to keep up with the surrounding area, condo and landed housing. The neighbourhood of Lorong Lew Lian is located near the meeting point of three old major roads – Upper Serangoon Road, Upper Paya Lebar Road and Yio Chu Kang Road. Kampong Lew Lian (and later Lorong Lew Lian) and the neighbouring Lorong Ong Lye were named after durian and pineapple (lew lian and ong lye mean durian and pineapple in Hokkien), two of the locals’ favourite fruits. Before HDB flats were built there, it was a small village called Kampong Lew Lian, made up of dozens of attap and wooden shacks, existed at the edge of the cemetery. There were also several funeral parlours, small temples and clan associations around the cemetery. By the late eighties, the cemetery was cleared and its site was used for the construction of another cluster of HDB flats, numbered 401 to 427. Completed in 1988, these flats were zoned under Serangoon Central. Thank you for watching. To Join as a Member.
