Tanjong Pagar MRT station is an underground Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station on the East West line located at Maxwell Road between the junctions of Peck Seah Street and Cecil Street in Downtown Core, Singapore.
[4] The station site was shifted 15 metres closer to Wallich Street in 1984 to eliminate a sharp bend on the line.
[6] In November 1986, in a bid by the MRTC to give the system a local touch, the station's name was changed from Maxwell to Tanjong Pagar.
The installation consists of triangular plates, meant to portray ship sails, with red lines, which the artist views as a reflection of Singapore's "bustling international trade".
In addition, Tanjong Pagar station also features two wall murals by Aw Tee Hong and Iskandar Jalil.
