Marina Bay CBD is Singapore's new downtown

For years the Central Business District was simply a place where people went to work. Tens of thousands poured into the area every morning and left it empty every evening. At nights and on weekends, the CBD was virtually a ghost town.

But all that has changed. The CBD has greatly expanded, not only in size but also in terms of the amenities it offers. It is now a place where people live, work and play.
