Katong Square

The site of the old Joo Chiat Police Station, which was formerly occupied by Katong Village, was re-developed into Katong Square a few years ago. The development includes Holiday Inn Express and Hotel Indigo and a 2 storey mall.

Unlike busy malls, Katong Square mall has a serene atmosphere. It is a good place for a unhurried meal or to savour coffee or tea tea nice and slow.
