There are still 2 questions left unanswered - it's called Kreta Ayer Neighbourhood Police Post and it was formerly North Canal Road Post Office. The architecture of the building is typical of post offices built in the 1950s-60s.
Alright, I cheated by checking my 1963 and 2003 street directories.
okay, full marks to victor. this blue and white building is located in hong lim park (former hong lim green), the place where the speaker's corner is and where you can demonstrate/protest openly soon. it used to be a post office.
North Canal Road, in front of Hong Lim Green Was some out-patient clinic
