St Andrew's Cathedral

What you see today is the second church building constructed on the site of the original Church of St Andrew, a location selected by Stamford Raffles himself in 1823. The land this church was built on was donated by Singapore’s first Arab settler, Syed Omar Ali Aljunied, upon request by Raffles. The original church building was completed in 1837 but, much to the chagrin of Governor Surveyor John Thomson, it didn’t have a spire. He ordered one to be added to the building later, but forgot to install one very important piece of technology.
