"Largest sports complex being built"

Visit the Turf City, Bukit Timah

Last week, I took the Ang Mo Kio - Turf City shuttle bus to this new shopping sensation, the Turf City.  Currently, there are 4 seafood restaurants, The Furniture Mall, Courts, Giant hypermart, plant nursery (with bonsai and leafy potted plants) and food court opened.  The area covers an amazing 56-ha land.  Singapore Agro Agricultural leased the site for 9 years from the Singapore Land Authority, this is the latest attraction for shoppers all around the city.

The next best thing is a sports complex which will have 8 football fields, a baseball pitch, an archery field and 14 tennis courts will be built on a 30-ha land.

CD-in at That CD Shop, Great World City

The shop is 5-years-old and it still gives a cool ambience, entering the days of Blues and a mix with present day pop.  The deco encircles black-dark veneered wood tones, stainless steel metal strips and cement screed flooring.  There are gray carpet tiles on the testing platforms gives a clear sound effect.  The shop boasts all-you-need-to-drink-coffee, 3-disc CD players and Sony players with pre-amplifiers.  The force is in there!!  You are bound to end up buying at least a few CDs that you just love!!
