    the units that u saw sold at what seems to be ridiculous psf is becoz they have super views. its totally unblocked view of marina bay sands becoz they are taller than surrounding developments, in particular, the 2 mickey mouse developments next door, robertson edge and vivace.

    in comparison, many of waterford resi units face each other.

    the finishing within the units is better for wharf vs waterford.

    do however take note that there will be many units which do not have the views and yet want to sell at the same high psfs.

    i feel that wharf is sitting on too small a plot of land, hence the earlier comment that it feels cramp. the pool is a tad too small!

    there are 4 10xx sq ft units sold in nov and dec 12 at record psf of 1949, 2049, 2121, 2229 with quantums of 2.014m to 2.304m. just ask bro starrynight, i would buy a similar unit at rivergate anytime at the same prices.

    Both are 999 lease.

    Waterford TOP only a couple of years ago.

    Caveat: I have yet to view units in either development.

    Hope those who are familiar with both developments can comment - before I go on my viewing expeditions.

    I can understand why Aspen is lower, as it is a much older development.

    waterford is more cramp the pool is dark and its right beside a very active temple.

    Bargain Hunter is right. There were 4 transactions of units in Stack 9 in Nov at widely varying prices. Above 15th floor will get the good views.

    2012-11-1915 Tong Watt Road #17-09 Sub Sale 1,066 2,121 2,260,000 Private
    2012-11-1215 Tong Watt Road #10-09 Sub Sale 1,066 1,830 1,950,000 Private
    2012-11-0915 Tong Watt Road #21-09 Sub Sale 1,033 2,229 2,303,590 Private
    2012-11-0115 Tong Watt Road #20-09 Sub Sale 1,033 1,949 2,014,350 HDB

    No doubt, for this price, Rivergate is a far superior investment (ok, I'm biased... heh). TBH, I'm not so keen on Wharf cos the entrance is a small street with the old shophouses still on the other side of the narrow road (am sure people will still park illegally at night even though it is a double-yellow line road), etc.

    Will check out MPR in more detail 1 of these weekends.

    BH:

    Yup, #9 from the living and bedroom and see part of the other temple. Stack 9 view from low / mid floor not great - see Dhoby Ghaut, Indian temple, Aspen Heights, etc.

    I didn't view Stack 10, but would have thought that high floor Stack 10 has best view cos it faces MBS and Raffles Place skyscrapers?

    high floor 09 should be better coz dual view east and south. stack 10 only single view south.
