Cascadia Showroom Sneak Peak

I was just about my mid-days browsing when I came across these images of Cascadia's showroom even before it launches. Looks like plenty of effort was spent on making this mass market project look as up market as possible.

Cascadia? Finally some news?


Source: Straits Times

Bukit Timah (D21) has been long slated to be the next 'spillover' area from escalating property prices along with Meyer Rd (D15).

However what the D15 area has achieved recently has only made its luscious green and hilly counterpart turn only more green in envy.

Projects that have been lined up to launch in D21 have been 'delayed' forever. Leaving agents red faced when clients demand they make good on their 'launching this weekend' promises. These projects are: Jardin, Cascadia, Hillcrest, Floridian and unnamed projects along Shelford Rd and Balmoral.

However the latest development was spotted in a one-liner in the Straits Times to conclude the article on a $2.02b bid on a prime site at Marina: "MGPA has been on an active buying spree here. In March, it agreed to buy Temasek Tower from CapitaLand for $1.04 billion. Last month , it also bought 162 units of Allgreen Properties' Cascadia condominium in Bukit Timah for a median price of $1,527 psf, sources said".

Well there you go folks. Finally after all the hush hush from Knight Frank, the exclusive marketing agent, we know whats going on - the cream of Cascadia is probably being made available for tenancy before brochures are even printed.

Now sit back and watch the Maplewoods, Sterling, Blossomvale and gang skyrocket.

Advance in Nanotechnology Reaches New High; Property Developers Dig New Low

Introducing the Hillcrest Villas (D21): 163 cluster terraces in 256, 486 sqft of land.

Don't be fooled by the seemingly decent landsize. By guesstimation, Condos on plots that size have roughly 20-30 stacks at most and this? A massive 163 stacks packed into a medium-sized parcel of land. Reminds me of the never ending cascades of UDMC Chalets at East Coast Parkway.

Well, one man's meat is another man's poison...furthermore it's only a whisper away from Raffles Girl's Primary School - a prime breeding ground for capable future CEOlettes who might decide not to pack 163 cluster terraces in 256,486 sqft of land.

Thanks Prophunter for your contribution.
