THE former Supreme Court and City Hall buildings will be
restored to the tune of $413.8 million.
The restoration project, commissioned by the National Heritage
Board, will begin in January 2011.
Upon completion in the second half of 2014, the two iconic
heritage buildings will have three additional basements added.
They will also house the new National Art Gallery,
Singapore.
The 60,000-sqm visual arts gallery is set to be one of the
region's largest, and will feature both permanent and temporary art
galleries.
