Description
Union Square Residences
Replacing the former Central Mall, Union Square Residences is a new 99-year leasehold mixed-use development located at 20 Havelock Road in District 1 (D1).
Location
Union Square Residences’ best selling point is its central location. The strategic locale offers residents unrivalled access to amenities and attractions in key employment and leisure areas such as Clarke Quay, Chinatown, the Orchard Shopping Belt, the Central Business District (CBD), and the Marina Bay Financial District.
The development is also conveniently located near various MRT Stations, including Clarke Quay MRT station (NE5), Chinatown MRT station (NE4/DT19), and Fort Canning MRT station (DT20).
The condo is also close to choice schools, including River Valley Primary School and Singapore Management University.
Accessibility and Amenities Near Union Square Residences
The nearest MRT stations, just five minutes away from Union Square Residences, are Clarke Quay MRT station (NE5) on the North-East Line (NEL) and Chinatown MRT station (NE4/DT19).
Residents can access the Downtown Line (DTL) at Chinatown MRT station. The DTL shaves commuting time into the city by up to 30 percent by providing a more direct route to the CBD. A direct train ride will take residents to employment nodes in Telok Ayer, Downtown, and Bayfront in less than 10 minutes.
Residents can also take a straight bus to the Orchard shopping belt at the bus stop right outside the development.
For drivers, Union Square Residences is within a 10-minute drive radius from Tanjong Pagar, Marina Bay, and Raffles Place. The development’s CBD fringe location in the Core Central Area (CCR) also makes it highly accessible from major expressways such as the Central Expressway (CTE), East Coast Parkway (ECP), and Marina Coastal Expressway (MCE).
Residents who enjoy nature can explore various green spaces and corridors nearby, such as Fort Canning Park, the Singapore River Promenade, and Pearl’s Hill City Park.
