East Asiatic Company Building

The East Asiatic Company Building was a landmark at the corner of Raffles Quay and Telegraph Street in Singapore. Completed in 1895 as the Eastern Extension Telegraph Building or Telegraph Building, it housed the offices of the Eastern Telegraph Company in Singapore until 1924, when the offices were relocated to Robinson Road. In 1925, the building was acquired and taken over by the East Asiatic Company, serving as that firm's premises until it was demolished in 1955 to make way for Denmark House.
