Area likely to have mix of homes, offices and recreational facilities
A large new precinct near the Central Business District to be freed up by a new undersea road offers many exciting possibilities, say property consultants.
They say the upcoming Marina Downtown could complement the existing CBD in the same way the financial hub of Canary Wharf complements the city of London.
The 70ha area, to be developed once a section of the East Coast Parkway (ECP) is removed, is likely to feature a mix of homes, offices, retail and recreational facilities, said property and planning consultants.
This will allow for a new CBD, with the Marina Bay area as a seamless extension of the existing financial district.
