gilman village - BOhemia





another place going to go - the gilman village off alexandra road.

this corner of singapore has a colonial past. the old buildings used to house the British army within its walls. after the British left, the Singapore Armed Forces Combat Engineers took over this premises. later it was converted to F&B outlets.

he lived in the vicinity of the area many years ago, in Depot road. then he did not pay much attention to this little, until many years later, when he was shopping for furniture, did he realise there was such a quaint place. then the canopy walk from mt faber opened a few years ago, this place suddenly became a in-thing for the 'bohemians'.

- the bohemians do not know that they are living in bohemia until they leave bohemia, or bohemia leave them....
