Considering the rapid changes and development that District 13 has undergone over the years, it is surprising as we consider its historical backdrop: that Macpherson and Potong Pasir had been plagued by poverty and destitution. From 1910 to 1937, Potong Pasir was filled with sand-quarries, hence resulting in the name Potong Pasir that means “cut sand” literally in Malay. Later in the 1950s Potong Pasir became one of the locals’ essential vegetable plantation areas that utilized traditional forms of planting. Farmers then were poor and lived in old rickety attap houses because vegetable farming could not reap huge profits.

District 13 is now served by the North East Line (NEL) and Circle Line, making it accessible to other parts of the island and key areas of the city. In addition, a range of future developments are already underway for the district, including The Venue Residences and Sennett Residence.
