    Default Watertown : Punggol Waterfront Living

    Creating a thread for this as I got the mailer in my letterbox.

    Developed by FEO, Fraser's and Sekisui House.

    Integrated with mall.... let's see if the whole MRT, mall and condo in one is still super in demand.

    Expected TOP: 1Q 2017 (that's very far away).

    Actually, wilth the concept and idea surrounding this project, I am actually impressed with it... Given the vision of Punggol 21, and surrounding condos having good response this year, this might be another bestseller yet...

    Bedok Reservoir near Newater plant in Bedok... We already drinking the corpse water. No wonder Mediacorp survey found that audience tastes have changed for the darker serials like Vampire Diaries, In Cold Blood and Perfect Deception...

    You mean these? Longkang water source?

    These pics are taken last week directly behind watertown. Initially I thought it is some longkang. Honestly Punggol 21, the extremely densely populated town is depressing and its waterway is vulnerable to construction pollution giving a strange odour and shows very bad management. Even the park connectors, the waterway and the restaurant by the bay is up, I do not see how it is comparable to the pcn at river valley and really waterfront living given a very cramped backdrop in the future despite a very pretty artiste impression.

    Why not, they building a reservoir there right? Like Marina Barage. Reservoir water level lower than the sea level. Then one fine day, it floods for no reason.

    I thought it is quite natural for rivers to appear muddy after a heavy downpour, based my knowledge after of watching years of documentaries.

    Punggol prices will be controlled by these new projects so I suspect it should not go any further up... ATT should be the highest price for now...

    Waterfront living in SK and Punggol area began with H2O and then others like Boathouse and Parc Vera followed. More and more such projects so the exclusivity in waterfront living is slowly but surely eroded!

    Wonder how's the sale of H2O!

    H2O (387 sold out of 521 units)
    74%

    H2O's view is quite spectacular, the site is located at a point that u can see the river meander with both sides of greenery.

    Near aerospace hub, and in the quieter part between Jalan Kayu and Sengkang West.

    One thing in common for Watertown and H20 is integrated landscaping with the park or river itself. More costly.

    Parc Vera and Boathouse is in a slightly lower league altogether.
