It is one of the five MRT interchange stations in Singapore to feature cross-platform interchange; the other stations are Raffles Place MRT station, Tanah Merah MRT station, Jurong East MRT station and Bayfront MRT station. City Hall station took its name from the national monument of City Hall, which is within walking distance from the station. Other landmarks in the area include Raffles City, the Padang, St Andrew's Cathedral and The Cenotaph. City Hall is connected to Esplanade MRT station via Raffles City and CityLink Mall. Due to its location at the heart of the Civic District and the numerous landmarks within its vicinity, City Hall station is one of the busiest MRT stations in Singapore. HistoryPrior to the building of the station, it was called St Andrew's. It was renamed to City Hall for historical significance reasons in 1984. On 4 May 1984, the contractor Nishimatsu-Lum Chang Joint Venture awarded the construction of the station where it began on June 1984 together with the tunnels to Bugis MRT station, under Contract 107. IncidentsOn December 10, 1985, a foreman died at City Hall MRT station.[1] On June 5, 2008, 280 youths spent the night at City Hall to learn how to deal with an emergency in a train tunnel. There was a simulated bomb explosion during this exercise and they have to know how to activate the detrainment ramps at both ends of the train, and evacuate to safety via an escape shaft. The students also used the items from their Ready Bags to "survive" the attack.[2] This station was part of the series of 2011 MRT train disruptions on 15 and 17 December 2011, caused by a misalignment between the trains' current collector shoes, which collect power from the third rail, and the third rail itself. These were Singapore's two largest MRT disruptions at the time of occurrence.[3][4][5][6] A power failure and blackout occurred at the station on 6 July 2012 at about 1.30 pm, causing the platforms for north and west-bound trains to turn pitch black. Air-conditioning and escalators also stopped functioning. Emergency lighting was turned on immediately after the incident occurred. However, train services were not affected by the incident.[7] Lighting was progressively restored from 2 pm, and was back to normal at 3.15 pm. All escalators have also been turned on. SMRT has apologised for any inconvenience caused.[8] Public artThere is a mural along the wall of the station called Vitreous Enamelled Mural by Simon Wong. However, this art piece is not under the Art in Transit scheme. Popular cultureCity Hall is one of the four MRT stations to appear in the "Uniquely Singapore Edition" of the board game Monopoly. It was also mentioned in the 2009 film Whiteout. Nearby points of interest
