It expanded in the early 19th century to include Acheen Street and Armenian Street, forming a layout similar to today. Over time, the Malay presence declined, although they once owed much of the inner city. Due to frequent flooding, traditional houses were built on raised platforms, and some Indo-Malay style buildings still remain today.

Although the exact date of their first meeting is unclear, they likely met through Maxwell's government appointments and social events. As a new colonial cadet without strong political connections, Swettenham focused on learning Malay under his teacher Haji Mohamed Said.
