Until the late 1960s the front of Clifford Pier was a carpark. After office hours the carpark was transformed into a gathering place for musicians, mobile foodstalls and prostitutes.[citation needed] The carpark later made way for road-widening and construction of new developments.[1]

New developments

There are new developments at the water front property along Collyer Quay betweenMarina Boulevard and One Fullerton. A new waterfront hotel, called theFullerton Bay Hotel, opened in 2010. The historical buildings, these beingClifford Pier and the former Customs Harbour Branch Building, were incorporated into the new developments. The hotel and the historical buildings are connected to incorporate theMarina Promenade and to allow free pedestrian traffic along Marina Bay. A new office building, OUE Bayfront was also built to replace the former OUE building which stood beside Clifford Pier.
