This week, it's a special Insider Tour episode as we visit the old Dakota Crescent, one of Singapore's oldest housing estates that was built by the existing Singapore Improvement Trust (SIT), which was a Government run initiative before the now established Housing and Development Board (HDB). As an interesting titbit, the name Dakota Crescent was actually derived from the Douglas DC-3 "Dakota" planes that used to land at the old Kallang Airport when it was still in operation.

There were a couple of different types of flats among the 15 blocks of low-rise flats, with the highest being just 7 stories high. One of which was a butterfly-shaped block, along with a 3-storey walk-up apartment block and a 2-storey commercial block.

We were also very kindly invited by one of our viewers to his wonderful 3-room HDB home at Cassia Crescent (which essentially is where incidentally many of the residents from Dakota Crescent have moved to). Special thanks to Jerrold for taking the time to show us around his estate as well as his home!

Correction: We apologise for the mistake where the flat was said to be 100 sqft (which is impossible!). The flat is actually around 700 sqft in size 🙌
