Coleman Street, Singapore (28 July 2017)
Coleman Street is one of the streets in downtown Singapore. It starts at Canning Rise, just ahead of the intersection with Hill Street and Armenian Street, and ends at the junction with St Andrew's Road. In between it intersects with North Bridge Road and forms junctions with Colombo Court and Coleman Lane.
Coleman Street was named after George Drumgold Coleman (1795-1844), the famous 19th century architect who designed many of the buildings in Singapore. Born in Ireland, he was reponsible in drafting the layout of the 1822 Jackson Plan of Singapore for Stamford Raffles. He had his home on 3 Coleman Street.
