Old buildings that are now gone....

Further to my entry earlier on old buildings and the compre and essay we have done on this topic, take a look at the following pics:
1) The old National Library building, which was demolished to make way for a vehicles tunnel opposite SMU. Many have fond memories of this place, but it's gone now, even though u can still see photos of it, and some pieces of its bricks integrated in the SMU building opposite it.

2) The National Theatre, which no longer stands there (in River Valley Road, near Clark Quay). But on its spot is a sculpture indicating its former presence, and of course photos of it in the archives are aplenty. Are are they the same as the real thing?
