MacDonald House, a renowned business center located along Orchard Road in Singapore, is an iconic neo-Georgian style building with a unique red brick finish. Designated as a national monument in 2003, it holds significant historical value as the first fully air-conditioned building in South East Asia. Built in 1949 for HSBC Bank, this architectural marvel now houses main tenants McCann Worldgroup and Citibank. One of its notable features is an open well that allows natural light to illuminate the inner offices, while six skylights in the banking hall eliminate the need for artificial lighting during the day. Situated in a convenient neighborhood, MacDonald House offers direct access to various amenities, including shopping malls, dining options, supermarkets, and entertainment venues. Its prime location near Dhoby Ghaut MRT Plaza Singapura ensures easy accessibility for visitors. The cozy and welcoming atmosphere appeals to a diverse range of individuals, such as students, expats, locals, families, and romantic couples. With its lovely rooftop view and rich history, MacDonald House stands as a prominent and inviting destination for all.

It's an office space right in the heart of town. SMU is steps away and Plaza Singapura is at your doorstep.
Lovely rooftop view too.
An iconic brick building located along Orchard Road, a short walk from Dhoby Ghaut MRT. MacDonald House was constructed between 1948 and 1949 and named after Malcolm John MacDonald, who was Governor-General of Malaya. The building is currently occupied by mostly offices, however it is fully occupied most of the time.
A conserved building in Singapore that dates back to the 70s. Rumoured to be haunted by those who remembered and were around during the first decade. Citibank is now their main tenant occupying the first floor with a branch and teller machines.
One is the icon building in Orchard area that has red blocks for wall. A memorable one to visitππππΈπ¬ β¦
