In conjunction with this year's Singapore Architectural Heritage Awards, featuring 5 winning projects, it was also announced that a slate of post-war buildings (built in the 1950s and 60s) will be earmarked for conservation. This marks a significant shift of what is considered an appropriate cut-off date for a building to be considered part of the nation's heritage.

There is also a book launch of past conservation projects undertaken by the Urban Redevelopment Authority and an exhibition featuring this year's Award winners at the URA Gallery.
