Art in Transit: “Farther Shores” by Bruce Quek
It wasn’t so long ago when the sea would have been above you, and no one had yet named this place Bayshore. In time to come, perhaps the shoreline will be elsewhere once again, and the very sense of what this place is will continue to evolve.
‘Farther Shores’ takes images of our Bayshore as it is and blends them with other places that share the same name. It also shares about the imagined possibilities of what Bayshore may once have been and what it may yet be. This is not to disorient us in time and space, but to broaden our sense of who we are, what we have been, and what we may become.

There is a mall coming near Bayshore MRT. It is targeted to 2025. ( I read it somewhere )
It will be a boon for residents along Bayshore Road and nearby Upper East Coast Road as well as future visitors to the area to have supermarkets, shops and a hawker centre adjacent to the new Bayshore MRT station. This could be envisioned as the first phase of the upcoming Bayshore Precinct. It is hoped that the authorities also consider re-developing the stretch of East Coast Park near Bedok Jetty into something very interesting given the expected increase in visitors via the Bayshore MRT station with possible addition of F&B and other commercial set-ups. Wooden deck chairs and beach huts could be added for a more rustic beachfront setting. Just as canals have in recent years been beautified, the same could be done to this stretch of the East Coast beachfront.
is it possible for the bayshore and costa de sol residences have a private undergound walkway linked to the mrt? funding will be 80:20 since it would make sense to have a exit on the other side of the road.
it would be nice for the bayshore station to have an exit to east coast park.
a similar F&B setup like parkland green on the other side of east coast would be perfect!
It would be nice to have some shops, food court above the Bayshore MRT station. Considering proximity to residential areas. Can LTA consider this suggestion.
Dear Sir or Madam
I’m a resident at The Bayshore. May I know any condominium will build beside the Bayshore MRT station in the future?
Thank you.
