1. In my opinion, it is not that bad. 2. Frankly, I see it more as a graceful geese gliding gracefully on water; see attachment 3. In my also; it looks less like a cooking pan as a cooking pan is rounded; where else this either looks: like the cake scoop. For example, when we scoop up a slice of a piece of cake to a plate. Or at least it is like a chopper as you had mentioned. 4. A chopper is actual good as this is an "offensive" weapon and the only thing is that whoever is in the "way" of this chopper e.g. neighbourhood land is not as good. For example, please see attachment Fabercrest hill site. It looks like the blade of the long Chinese weapon. 5. Edelweiss Pa…

Location: Siglap Road (Marine Parade) Developer: Mandarin Gardens Pte Ltd (Overseas Union Bank financed) Tenure: 99 years TOP was 16 years ago in 1986 Total units: 1,000 apartments. Comprising of Studio, 2 bedrooms, 3 bedrooms and Penthouse. When it was launched in 1986, many of the units are sold at a premium. Most probably because of the district 15 location. Even during that time, many of the units were vacant. And by coincidence, a video system at the guardroom to each unit - failed. Installed by Chubb, this system gave problems and did not work. In my opinion, there are many unsold units at this condo. Basically, in order to save space, the major blocks are connected…

Marina One Towers 21 and 23 For me, immediately that comes to mind are two L-shaped boots or a grown-man's moustache. In this illustration, from a Shapes and Forms Feng Shui point of view, although the largest stack/units = #08 has a nice number. It is unfortunately not the best stack given that it is at the edge of the building. Although it has stunning views, corner stacks which is literally at the edge of the development does not have optimum Shapes and Forms. Surprisingly, other than the whole "working" world may peer into these (Block 21) stacks, stacks like 09, 10, 11, 12, 13 & 14 are considered to have better Shapes a…

Martin Modern by Guocoland What a pity stacks/units that have pool view also affected by afternoon sun. Especially Tower 8 with the larger units stacks #01, #02 and #03. For Tower 10, stack #12 is the most affected by afternoon sun. Including stack #11. While stacks #13, #14 and #15 also have indirect afternoon sun all year round. It is a pity that the developer should have mirrored the two blocks on this plot of land.

Maysprings condominium was finalized during the Flying Star Period 7 in 1998. The land tenure is leasehold for 99 years. This condominium consists primarily of two identical rectangular blocks: Blocks 2 and 6. Positioned between these two blocks is Block 4, which is centrally located on the rectangular plot and houses the clubhouse. The majority of the apartments are oriented towards Flying Star S1 or N1, with fewer units facing E1 and W1.

Squatters of SGP land caveat emptor... Minister for National Development (MND) Lawrence Wong says that majority of occupiers (apologies I mean squatters) of 99-year leased homes have to surrender their flats when the lease expires. As government has no means to en-bloc each and every flat.. The Minister wrote on the MND blog: “For the vast majority of HDB flats, the leases will eventually run out, and the flats will be returned to HDB, who will in turn have to surrender the land to the State.” “Do not assume that all old HDB flats will be automatically eligible for the Selective En bloc Redevelopment Scheme, or SERS. SE…

Many new condo developments today have interior walls that come with dry walls. For example: The Sail, Livia and recently TOP Caspian and also 8@Woodleigh. All other developers should take a page or example from the Sales Brochure of Naung Residence. Where under 3.0 WALLS Internal Wall : concret wall and/or brickwall and/or precast wall While many other brochures are not clearly written. Please see attachments. This is because given that many new condo units nowadays come with internal walls that are dry-walls. Where often it can be a disappointment when someone wanted to mount a TV onto a wall but could not as dry-walls don't provde such a solid support. For…

Dear All, Punggol (Edgefield plains) Govt Housing Development Board flats (HDB) Many of these new generation HDB flats face each other. Many are entrapped i.e. in very close proximity and has no view other than looking into other apartments. This is the general area where all these new flats are clustered together:- http://www.streetdirectory.com:8080/map.jsp?x=36220.7008101852&y=42206.2093460648&level=7&star=1&xyfile= Not all face inwards, but it seems a majority are facing each other. Air flow is often at the mercy of specific timing or sometimes, it just flows past some units. Many of these flats TOP in 2002 and lots more TOP this year and the next. Gen…
