What's your favourite memory in this place?
SINGAPORE: Though it’s quite common to share stories about certain places on social media, a netizen recently did the opposite by sharing a photo of a building reportedly near Woodlands Checkpoint and asking other online users to share any stories they might have about the place.
A Reddit user gave Singaporeans the opportunity to share any stories about a certain place in Woodlands Checkpoint by starting an online thread on Reddit. The post, which came with a photo, brought back childhood memories to many who saw it. Many Woodlanders said that the place used to be a cinema. “This place last time according to my parents used to be a cinema,” said one. “They used to watch movies together there. Woodlands Centre before it got torn down last time used to have a huge Sheng Siong, also had KFC, quite a lot of clothes/fabric/shoe shops, phone shops, hawker centre I remember had a stall selling grilled stingrays/seafood also.
“There was a cinema inside many many many years ago right?” shared another online user. “I remember my family taking a detour here because the jam to JB was so bad. We watched a movie together. Such fond memories – it was the only movie in a cinema that we watched together as my dad passed away shortly after.”“Wow this was my childhood,” a third wrote. “I used to stay near the old si Ling primary area which wasn’t too far away. When I was little my dad would bring us to the McDonald’s.
