Where once the burnt-out pillars in the heart of this city were a reminder of a terrible fire which destroyed the handsome pre-World War II colonial-style Land and Survey Building we now have a community art project. Over the years the building was converted into the Social Welfare Department and then later the office for the Society for the Blind. In the 1990s, there was a proposal that the heritage building be turned into an art gallery, but it caught fire in 1992 and all that was left were the concrete foundation and 30 pillars facing the open sky. Last September, a group of artists turned the abandoned site into an art showcase; “Pillars of Sabah 1” focused on a selection of Sabah personalities who have achieved significant success or played a role in the state’s development.

Once a dilapidated place, the tourism board and local artists have worked together to rejuvenate this place in the city center. Every few months, there are new art works on the pillar and artistic installations and sculptures making it a 'instagramable' spot. After taking pictures to your heart's desires, cross the street and head over to Suria sabah shopping mall for some air-con, shopping and food!
