Location: Singapore Oh Dear! Now I know what it means to stay in an afternoon sun home....

Case Study: Afternoon sun units: The saying goes: "An experienced buyer will often first check to see where is the afternoon sun!" One entire block with stacks #01 to #03 and the side wall of #08 will be soaked in afternoon sun. For#01 to #03 one can say that it is a "direct hit!" all year round. Thus no running away from afternoon sun especially towards the living room / bedrooms... Is the afternoon sun bad? Sometimes this is based more on Common sense. But again, many seem to point the finger (or rather everything) is Feng Shui! What do you think?

Scotts Square @ Orchard by Wheelock Properties is a high-end mixed development. Consisting of 2 residential towers above a retail mall. The 2 residential towers has a total of 338 units. Formerly, this plot was the Scotts Shopping Centre.

A new close-by development:-

This new development is also in close proximity with a 1966 street map of the area:

Juniper Hill, freehold with 115 units. Expected T.O.P. on 31 March 2022 under Period 8 Flying Star Feng Shui

Haus on Handy a high end 99 leasehold development by CDL. This development consists of 130 residential units. Estimated T.O.P. is by 31 July 2023. Under Flying Star Feng Shui is Period 8.

The 1966 Street map shows that Arena Residences is located close to the Chinese Presbyterian Church. And in 1966, this plot of land was surrounded by 4 schools: Guillemard English School, Guillemard Integrated School, Kallang Integrated School and slightly further away is the Government Primary School. In addition, the iconic Singapore Badminton Stadium is a close-by neighbour. Location in terms of Feng Shui is border-line.

Congratulations! Watercove = Just T.O.P. visiting soon...

Commonsense: Question marks and Olloi site: Although the areas highlighted under ? marks x 2 is usually designated perhaps for low rise buildings: how about the construction noise as well as potential poison arrow(s) if any ... including blocked views etc...

Frankly, I give the Olloi site a poor grading. Given that it's close proximity to especially to Joo Chiat Complex 1 - 4 as well as the various shop houses (too close) to this development. Thus because of the above.. poor marks under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui:-

The 1966 Street map shows the plot of land Seraya Residences sits on is a "clean. And during that time very close to St. Hilda's School and Church. And to this development's 8'Oclock is the Haig Girls' School. Today, at 6 O'clock is the current Tanjong Katong Primary School. Some roads close to this development has been consolidated. Otherwise, very much the same as in the 1960's. Just be careful of the straight purple arrow as shown below:-. From this "angle", the development seems more like:-

The Hyde at Balmoral: Under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui - the site is off Steven's Road and generally major concerns so far. This is the e 1966 Streetmap, the main Balmoral Road remains much the same. What is good is that in the past, there were no cemetery or a market anywhere near to the current The Hyde, also.

The Hyde @ Balmoral at Balmoral Road by Aurum Land. The Hyde @ Balmoral, freehold with a tower block of 12 storey's high with 117 units. Expected T.O.P. is on 1 September 2022 which is under Period 8 Flying Star Feng Shui.

Sky Everton at 50 Everton Road with 262 units. (Freehold - Estate in Fee Simple) Estimated T.O.P. is on 2 December 2023 under Period 8 Flying Star Feng Shui

Seraya Residences @ Katong by Macly 33 Pte Ltd Seraya Residences consists of a 1 block private freehold apartments with 17 units in total. Typical ground floor car-parks and units on level 2 onwards. Expected T.O.P. is in the last quarter of 2021. Thus under Period 8 Flying Stars Feng Shui. Overall, the plot is rectangular in shape and generally acceptable Shapes and Forms Feng Shui:-

Part 12: Is there a concerned if my unit's main entrance door opens towards a wall? To some they have heard that it is inauspicious. As this symbolises a "blockage" of luck coming into the unit: "As immediately once comes in, one "slams" towards a wall = symbolising difficulties". Thus if one meets a superstitious person and/or their geomancer or "hearsay" then it can become a stigma. In partcular to practitioners of Feng Shui who always consider the main door as the frontage. Otherwise, the good news is that often the main door is not the actual frontage of the unit. Thus so long as no reflective material facing the main door is fine or okay.

Part 11: Should I be concerned with the stove sharing the same wall as the toilet? There are a few layouts in The Tapestry where the stove shares the same wall as the toilet. Good news is that so long as the stove does not share the same wall as a sink or WC; this is regarded as a non-issue.

A sucker is born everyday! Don't be one! LOL!

A single point block tower. Cannot go wrong under Shapes and Forms Feng Shui. Because of “balanced” wind flow around the block.

Ok thank you very much. I appreciate your advise.

Launching this month (June 2019).

Today, one can see hordes of visitors especially foreigners passing this area to take photos. Often, I see Japanese tourists doing it...
