Amoy Street is one of the old streets developed during the 1830s defining Chinatown under Stamford Raffles' 1822 Plan.





No.22 Amoy Street Shophouse - It has elements of western classical architecture and influences of the neoclassical jalousie windows of Europe, which can be seen on its facade: rhythm of three vertical bays with distinguished horizontal bands in the form of centrally paired door height window shutters; the Georgian-style fanlights, the Classical Roman Doric moldings, the use of Classical proportions and orders, Doric piers and Corinthian pilasters.



The Anglo-Chinese School (ACS) was founded on 1 March 1886 by Bishop William Fitzjames Oldham as an extension of the Methodist Church.


Siang Cho Keong 仙祖宫, located at 66 Amoy Street was built in 1869 and was originally named as Zhi Yun Miao 紫云庙.
