in Orchard
Orchard Road supposedly got its name from
the orchards and plantations that existed in the area until
the turn of the 20th century. In the 1900s, a mysterious
disease swept through the nutmeg plantations, wiping them
out within a year. Because of its location in a valley,
floods were also common. They were only controlled in 1965
when Stamford Canal - part of which runs below the pedestrian
mall fronting Wisma Atria Shopping Centre today - was deepened
and widened.
In the 1970s, pioneering landmarks like
C. K. Tangs, Plaza Singapura and the Mandarin Hotel came
up and led the way for entertainment complexes. Brick by
brick, and block by block, towers of glass and steel lined
what used to be mud-tracks to make Orchard Road the premier
shopping belt today.
