Lakeside Apartments is located within the Jurong Lake District (JLD). JLD will become Singapore’s second Central Business District (CBD). Singapore’s top two universities are also located in the West Region, providing a strong talent pool. The nearby Jurong Innovation District,Tuas Port and one-north hub make the Jurong Lake District a great location to access the universities, maritime and port industries. Besides, plans are afoot for an integrated tourism attraction.
The new condo launch replacing the Lakeside Apartments is expected to draw a high level of attention as there is a shortage of new residential developments in the area. There will be more than 300 residential units adjacent to the Jurong Lake, offering views of the lake and its surroundings.
