Coleman House, Singapore

Coleman House, once the residence of Irish architect George Drumgoole Coleman, was constructed in 1829 and served various purposes over the years, including a hotel and boarding house. Notable for its large size and historical significance, it was frequented by literary figures like Joseph Conrad. The building was demolished in 1965 to make way for the Peninsula Hotel, but its legacy as a key site in Singapore's architectural and social history remains of interest to tourists and researchers alike.
