The two black-and-white photos were from someone who was here in the late 50's. The other two were from a colleague of his who was a keen photographer and were taken between 1966 and 1969.
Thanks Mike.
And here's a photo that Peter took of the Spore River from the Fullerton.

Comparing the last 2 photos, it seems that they demolished more than just the Marine Police Station but also the old Immigration office block.
I thought the Immigration Office block is now the Asian Civilisation Museum?
Yes the foyer (of Immigration) on the side facing the Marine Polcie Station was demolished because of MRT works during tunnelling under Singapore River. They put up steel struts and beams but found not safe.
Haha. I think many readers did not spot the mistake with one of the photos. The top photo was flipped horizontally so that the word in the top left corner originally appeared in the top right corner as DTL. Thanks to reader Richard Hale for pointing out the errror.
