Just happened to stumbled across your thread, and spent almost an hour (office hours :embrass enjoying the tour. Thanks for sharing!!!

btw, the power station beside Labrador Park should be Pasir Panjang Power Station, the smaller St James' Power Station is situated over at Harbour Front/ ex-World Trade Centre side.

Thanks for the info. and welcome to the lost world.
