This 1983 photograph shows Chin Hin Street, now an expunged road, from Tew Chew Street (towards Merchant Road). Two-storey shophouses line both sides of the street. Most of the shophouses have awnings to protect the goods being displayed on the lower floor of the shophouses. A building under construction can be seen in the background. Title devised by Library staff.
