Fullerton Building is now known as Fullerton Hotel, a 6 star hotel.

Previously the Singapore Club occupied the top floor before World War II - Governor Sir Shenton Thomas and Lady Thomas occupied rooms here before British surrender to Japanese

Named after Robert Fullerton Governor of Straits Settlements (1824-30); he saved Central and South Malaya from Siamese domination; two important treaties: the Anglo-Dutch Treaty 1824 and Anglo-Siamese Treaty 1826 were signed when he was Governor
