Peirce Reservoir, originally named the Kalang River Reservoir, is
Singapore's second reservoir
Peirce Reservoir, originally named
the Kalang River Reservoir, is Singapore's second reservoir. In
1922, it was renamed Peirce Reservoir in commendation of the services of Robert
Peirce, who was the municipal engineer of Singapore from 1901 to 1916. In 1975, a dam was constructed at the upper
reaches of the Peirce Reservoir, forming the Upper and Lower Peirce Reservoirs.
The Upper and LowerPeirceReservoirPark are popular places with their unique pleasant setting and
tranquility. Adding to the scenic beauty is the surrounding secondary forest
which was protected as a water catchment area when the reservoir was built.
