it's Slim Barrack, just after 5SIR moved to Bukit Panjang Camp before current Kranji Camp

Ayer Rajah Camp was at the other end of Portsdown Road
didn't know the condo used to be a camp

one north gateway is built with the original 2-storey camp building as its front facade

the opposite one north residence used to be where cookhouse (defunct during my time there, fresh rations were ferried from Ayer Rajah Camp everyday), soccer field, & a 2-3 building tiakong used to be one of the offices of the lion head agency

I remember there was something near there. besides a camp. Can't remember what it was prison or something?

Means they preserve one part of the building when building the condo...

Same as Ki residences... preserve one wall for plants to continue growing iirc.

So this place is haunted?
according to a duty medic, there's one happening (demolished) block which was near to present day NTU guildhouse building. no duty personnel (medic, driver, etc) dare to bunk in overnight there
