141 Neil Road
By Seeker
141 Neil Road is a historic townhouse located in the Blair Plain district of Bukit Merah, Singapore, built in the early 1880s. Originally owned by Chinese banker Lim Yew Teok, it was gazetted for conservation in 1991 and has been a residential property since its inception. In 2020, the Portabella family purchased the townhouse and later donated it to the National University of Singapore (NUS) for research on heritage conservation. NUS has initiated restoration efforts, expected to be completed by 2027, focusing on sustainable practices and the use of green technology. The townhouse's architecture reflects Singapore's First Transitional style, and it is situated near key transport links, making it an interesting site for tourists and researchers interested in Singapore's architectural heritage and conservation efforts.
