Originally designed by architectural firm Keys & Dowdeswell and
commissioned by the Namazie family, the Neoclassical Capitol
Building was completed in 1933, four years after the Capitol
Theatre. The adjoining theatre dominated the Singapore movie
scene for decades after it opened as the premier cinema in the
country.
Upon the redevelopment of Capitol Building, Capitol Theatre
and the neighbouring Stamford House and Capitol Centre, this
cluster of buildings is now known collectively as Capitol
Singapore.
This integrated development houses a lifestyle, shopping and
entertainment development that includes a retail arm, an ultra-
luxury hotel, luxury apartments & Capitol Theatre has become a
venue for dance and theatrical productions, film screenings and
red carpet movie premieres, with its original architectural details
kept intact.
