The Greater Southern Waterfront will be developed, as part of the ambitious plan to remake Singapore’s southern coast, and be part of the 120km-long waterfront. This was announced during the National Day Rally 2024, where more homes will be built in the waterfront precincts near the city centre.
We’re keeping an eye on the urban rejuvenation plans to see if the area will truly embody the ‘Live, Work, Play’ concept. Till then, homes in the neighbourhood still prove to be desirable properties thanks to their convenient city fringe location.
Whether you are a keen investor or a homeowner looking to live near the Greater Southern Waterfront, here are four developments you might want to check out.
What to Expect from the Greater Southern Waterfront
The plans for the Greater Southern Waterfront will see new office spaces built, old power stations in Pasir Panjang redeveloped into a recreational facility, and more nature trails created.
Once completed, our city boundaries will be expanded and the accessibility between working and residential zones will be improved. A waterfront promenade extending from Pasir Panjang to Marina East will join huge open areas and lush greenery.
An estimated 9,000 new homes will be added to the Greater Southern Waterfront area. Of which, 3,000 will be private property units and 6,000 will be BTO flats. These BTO flats are slated to be launched within the next two to four years.
It’s suffice to say the neighbourhood is not yet full developed. Due to the Greater Southern Waterfront being an up-and-coming location, some may see investment potential with homes in the area.
