This rare 2.5-storey shophouse with entrances from both Club Street and Ann Siang Hill has a wide frontage which allows businesses great visibility and excellent foot traffic. It is within walking distance of Telok Ayer and Chinatown MRT stations.
Club Street received its name from various prominent Chinese clubs located along the street, the Chui Lan Teng Club, Ee Hoe Hean Club and the Kee Lam Club, some of which were in operation for over a hundred years. Club Street was referred to as “tua man lai”, “within the big gate”, due to the large gateway at the entrance of Club Street (at the junction of Cross Street).
The Chinese Weekly Entertainment Club, founded in 1891 by a Peranakan millionaire as a gentlemen’s club for the rich among the Chinese community, can still be found on 76 Club Street. Along the same road leading to the Straits Chinese Weekly Entertainment Club, 64 Club Street was originally used as a stable in 1922. Many years later, the Pondok Peranakan Gelam Club was established in 1932 and occupied 64 Club Street up until the turn of the century.
The Pondok Peranakan Gelam Club was a community club for the Bawean Malay community and served as a communal home for Baweanese immigrants from the 1930s to the 1960s. From the 1960s, many occupiers began moving into Housing Development Board (HDB) flats, but the community continued to use the premise as a club house up till 2000. The National Heritage Board designated Club Street a historic site in 2000.
