Managing a large plot of land with clusters of conserved buildings is not an easy feat, and the Singapore Land Authority (SLA) has been very careful with how such clusters of these historic areas are utilised.

SLA is a statutory board under the Ministry of Law, and it manages over 2,600 State-owned properties, including black-and-white bungalows and heritage properties. Familiar clusters of these historic buildings that have been successfully repositioned as lifestyle, arts, or F&B zones include Dempsey Hill, Gillman Barracks, and Seletar Aerospace Park.
