[SINGAPORE] Following the abrupt closure of Singapore private members’ club 1880 this week, The Business Times (BT) understands that its staff have banded together in an attempt to revive the business.
A source told BT that they have made an offer to buy the club’s assets, with support and backing from its landlord, RB Corp – a member of Singapore-based and privately held property investment and development firm RB Capital Group.
The group’s flagship development at Robertson Quay includes the InterContinental Singapore Robertson Quay hotel where 1880 is located on the third level. The 22,000 square foot club has a restaurant, bar, spa and co-working space.
