Where are the HDB blocks in NDP 2000’s Shine On Me music video? Singaporeans think they’ve found them

An online mystery has been solved by eagle-eyed netizens who believe they have identified the HDB blocks featured in the NDP 2000 music video of Shine On Me. The singer Mavis Hee was seen dancing in front of a cluster of HDB flats in several scenes, leading users to speculate about the exact location and whether the flats still exist.

After some research, the original poster (OP) determined that the filming spot was likely from the MSCP (multi-storey carpark) at Serangoon North Avenue 3, with the flats visible from left to right as blocks 548, 549, 550, and 554. Many users expressed nostalgia for the 90s HDB estates, considering them the best era in terms of design and amenities.
