  The actual road name is seletar farmway 6. the blocks are still there, but u really have to bring touch light there. cause really dark. and the staircase are all block. so that meants u need to climb in one of the units to gain access into the block.

  I remember a few years ago when these blocks were still operational. I passed by them en route to the fish farms in the area.
  
  Guess the gah'men is keeping them for future development, or maybe for the SAF's training purposes? No idea.

  yes yes. the Seletar West Farmway flats are still there. the shophouses are being boarded with plywood as recently as 3 months ago. however, the stiarcase leding upstairs is locked by metal gates, of course.
  
  last month, saw a group of workers carrying out light maintainence on the compound.
  
  the New Tiew flats is designated as SAF area, aka PROTECTED PLACE.
  
  the Punggol Flats had been demolished
  
  the Seletar Flats had also been demolished at Dec 2004, and a flat piece of land stands.. very sad..
