However, some landmarks still remain, like Toa Payoh Methodist Church, Toa Payoh Library, and Bethesda Bookstore which hasn't change its interior design over the years.

OUR HISTORY

In the past, Toa Payoh was actually a prominent town in Singapore. The word "Payoh" was developed from the Malayan word "paya" which stands for swampland. Toa Payoh is also similar to the Chinese meaning of Paya Lebar, which means "huge swamp land.". Toa Payoh was a large-scale and infamous homesteader region.

Back in the late 1960s, Toa Payoh was well known to be “the Chicago of Singapore” for its remarkable crime rate. Life back then, was simple and easy, but there was a lack of safety, security, and hygiene. Fights will normally break out because of the jostle in the queues for water, which is a daily chore for the people. Many homesteaders were involved in cultivation and fostering work.

Others were like hawkers' stall owners, factory employees, technicians, or domestic helpers. 

The homesteader began relocating out in 1962 as an outcome of increasing payment prices and another useful inducement granted by the government. The clearance process was inclined to start off, and the renovation started in early 1964.
