Over 8,800 BTO flats completed in Tengah; residents move into town's Garden district
The Straits Times|November 27, 2024
More than 8,800 Housing Board flats in Tengah have been completed, comprising nearly 40 percent of the 23,000 flats offered so far in the new town, the Housing Board said on Nov 26.

Residents have also started moving into their homes in the Garden district, the second of five housing districts in Tengah to be developed. Plantation was the first; the other three districts in the works are Park, Brickland and Hill.

The keys to 2,936 units in Garden, or 89 percent of the 3,306 booked units, have been collected.

In total, 7,921 households have collected the keys to their flats across eight Build-To-Order (BTO) projects in the Plantation and Garden districts as at Nov 15, HDB said.

The first batch of Tengah residents collected the keys to their homes in the Plantation district at the end of August 2023.

Billed as an eco-friendly and car-lite "forest" town, the 700ha area in the west is the first new HDB town to be developed since Punggol more than two decades ago.
