Previously headquartered at
Joo Chiat Police Station in East Coast Road under the former NPP system, the present headquarters took over jurisdiction of the division on 1 August 1987. The rest of the NPCs came online when the NPC system was implemented here on 17 December 2000. When the Geylang Police Division was closed in December 2000, 'G' Division took over half of its areas of control, while the rest came under the
Ang Mo Kio Police Division and
Central Police Division, thus extending its responsibilities to critical areas and sites around
Geylang Road and the
National Stadium, where major events regularly require support from the entire division and beyond, such as during the
National Day Parade when it is held there. Other major events handled by the division include the
Singapore Airshow exhibitions in Changi, and the
Hari Raya Puasa bazaars at
Geylang Serai. ==Establishments==
