U.R.A. Failure?

Briefly, what I learnt at that USP Workshop today about the URA.

What they have done right: Void decks for most HDB apartment blocks. Void decks are a great
i) way to ventilate
ii) place to hold social activities like weddings and wakes
iii) place for elders to hang out.


What's not so right:

i) random structures that are of no use, like the viewing gallery in the park in Toa Payoh
ii) not developing Ann Siang Hill as a tourist spot
iii) tearing down the old National Library, the most awesome brick marvel in the world


Verdict: Try harder URA.
