It was officially opened in March 2014, replacing a void deck space at Block 547, Woodlands Drive which had been in use since 2003.[3] Admiralty is connected to Sembawang and Yishun via Gambas Avenue; the Woodlands Industrial Park and Senoko Industrial Park via Woodlands Avenue 10; Woodlands via Woodlands Avenue 7; Marsiling via Woodlands Square and Woodlands Avenue 3; and the Expressway via Woodlands Avenue 12. EtymologyThis name "Admiralty" reflects the area's association with the large British Naval Base (in the Sembawang area) that was established between 1923 and 1941. Given that the residence of the Rear Admiral of the British Navy was located in this area, the road name probably reflects the Naval High Command. When the British began the construction of the Naval Base they laid out and developed Admiralty Road in 1923 which ran through the Naval Base area. The base was the key British installation in the region and was projected as the Asian bastion of the British Empire between the world wars.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://keylocation.sg/singapore/planning-areas/sembawang|title=Singapore's Sembawang Planning Area|website=Key Location|accessdate=27 December 2018}} {{Places in Singapore}}{{coord missing|Singapore}}{{Singapore-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|title=Integrated Development In Woodlands, "Kampung Admiralty", Takes Off With Groundbreaking Ceremony|url=http://www.hdb.gov.sg/fi10/fi10296p.nsf/PressReleases/60131D3FCAAB7CAB48257CC50010762F|publisher=Housing & Development Board|accessdate=19 August 2014}} 3. ^{{Cite web|url=http://news.asiaone.com/news/singapore/admiraltys-new-cc-makes-splash|title=Admiralty's new CC makes a splash|date=5 March 2014|website=AsiaOne|access-date=2016-04-24}} 4. ^{{Cite book|title = Singapore Street Names: A Study of Typonymics|last = |first = |publisher = Victor R.
