Singapore, 31 Mar 2021 More private homes, community facilities and even a retirement village – these are ideas property analysts have brought up for large plots of land in Jurong previously reserved for the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore bullet train project put discarded.
These developments will be in line with the overall transformation plans for the Western Singapore region, they said, including to make Jurong Lake District a second central business district in the future.
Ms Christine Sun, senior vice-president of research and analytics at OrangeTee & Tie, said there is room for more private homes to be built given how it “has been a while” since the Jurong East area has seen a new residential project.
HDB home owners in the area also have “upgrading needs", she added. "So it is good to offer new private homes for these people."
