Kovan mrt area where there are currently all the condo
developments going on up to simon road, used to be very old shop
houses which were gutted by a big fire in the 80s, and never
rebuilt.
The big longkang that snakes along old tampines road and goes
underground at simon road used to be open, and a five foot way very
lok kok hawker centre use to occupy the area along simon road.

mee has relocated to a corner shop at the old airport road hawker
centre.
