Hong Leong Building, Modern skyscraper in Raffles Place, Singapore.
The Hong Leong Building rises 158 meters into the sky with 45 floors of office spaces, featuring clean geometric lines and functional design elements.
Swan and Maclaren Architects completed this commercial structure in 1976, marking a period of rapid development in Singapore's financial district.
The building houses international diplomatic missions, including the embassies of Panama and Norway on its upper floors, fostering global connections.
Located at 16 Raffles Quay, the building contains retail spaces on the ground floor and a basement level with shops and dining facilities.
In 2007, about 5000 workers evacuated the building when tremors from two earthquakes in Sumatra reached Singapore's business district.
