“With our transformation now complete, we are better-positioned to support changemakers and deepen public engagement in social and environmental impact,” says Yvonne Tay, CEO of Temasek Shophouse. “The enhanced Temasek Shophouse will allow us to test and refine sustainable urban design concepts within a conserved heritage setting.”
Social impact hub Temasek Shophouse will open its new outdoor community space to the public on March 14, nearly six months after the official opening of the main building. The new outdoor space supports biodiversity while creating accessible spaces for environmental learning and public participation.
Located near the Dhoby Ghaut end of Orchard Road, the 6,400 sqm Temasek Shophouse is home to the Temasek Trust ecosystem and like-minded co-working partners. The launch of the outdoor space marks the completion of a multi-year transformation that conjoined four adjacent units — 16, 22, 28 and 32 Orchard Road.
