View of Telok Blangah and CBD from Mount Faber 2004
Standing at 106m above sea level, Mount Faber overlooks Telok Blangah housing estate and the Central Business District of Singapore. Mount Faber was originally known as Telok Blangah Hill. In July 1845, it was renamed Mount Faber after Charles Edward Faber of the Madras Engineers. He and his team built a narrow winding road to the summit for the new signal station and flagstaff.
