Wheelock Place (Chinese: 伟乐坊; pinyin: Wěilèfāng), (Tamil வீல்லாக் ப்லேஸ்) is a 21-floor office tower and shopping mall on Singapore's Orchard Road. The building was designed by Kisho Kurokawa and completed in 1994 as Lane Crawford Place (Chinese: 达卡佛坊). It is now owned by Wheelock Properties, a division of Hong Kong's The Wharf (Holdings) Limited.
The mall has an underpass to Shaw House and ION Orchard. It was the site of Borders' flagship Singapore store until its closure in 2011.
Famous quotes containing the word place:
“Today masses of black women in the U.S. refuse to acknowledge that they have much to gain by feminist struggle. They fear feminism. They have stood in place so long that they are afraid to move. They fear change. They fear losing what little they have.”
—bell hooks (b. c. 1955)
