Synopsis
Singapore's coastlines underwent extensive reclamation to make room for developments such as Marine Parade, Changi Airport, and MBS.
Once, they were part of the sea and saw plenty of action, along with their fair share of mysteries: why did the Dutch and Portuguese battle off the coast of Tanah Merah in 1603? Why did the Okinawans come to prewar Siglap? How did a rubbery latex make a modern sultanate possible?
