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.

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.
