About this audio guide
This guide to Singapore City Gallery starts with you standing over a vast balsa-and-acrylic model of the city centre, and asks what a scale model is doing in the hands of working planners. You'll hear how it grew out of decades of separate district models, and why the shoreline you can see here is not the one the city started with. Best heard standing at the model's edge, with the bay in view.
