HDB apartment at Bain Street

My favourite place would be a HDB apartment in the city. One of the last surviving ones would be at Bain Street, otherwise known to many as the Bras Basah flats. Apart from having Art-Friend a lift ride away, the view on the top floor is fantastic. Where else can one admire the sunset like this? With the natural light mixing with the artificial from the surrounding buildings and traffic, no view from any hotel can match this. One is placed right in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the city and yet at above 13 storeys everything is calm with the cool breeze and traffic noise is soft (yes soft) and one can view the faint image the coast of our island and the sea beyond.
