Siglap Road site crop

 

A 1.93ha residential site at Siglap Road has been awarded to a consortium comprising Frasers Centrepoint unit FCL Topaz, Sekisui House and Keong Hong Holdings unit KH Capital, after the developers submitted the highest bid of $624.18 million, according to the Urban Redevelopment Authority.

The offer translates to about $858 per square foot per plot ratio.

The tender for the 99-year leasehold site closed on 14 January 2016 with eight bids. It could yield 750 housing units.

The land parcel is within proximity to the future Siglap MRT station and the East Coast Parkway (ECP). Parkway Parade, 112 Katong and established schools such as Victoria Junior College and Tao Nan School are also nearby.
