MIDTOWN MODERN LOCATION

Whenever we hear of a condominium with a garden landscape in the city, the images that conjure up in our minds would be high rise buildings with sky gardens or vertical gardens adorning the walls of residential towers.  And we have seen many such residences all around the city.  

Through this elementary interpretation of ‘garden residence in the city’ developers such as GuocoLand are constantly innovating to seek a breakthrough in defining ‘nature living in the city’, building homes in the midst of a large botanical garden in the middle of the thriving Bugis-Rochor area!  And today GuocoLand has boldly embarked on a visionary development to bring that vision to life at Midtown Modern Location.

Nature Living In The City

The first of its kind, GuocoLand’s Midtown Modern will be a truly impressive development that offers the rare experience of luxury living within nature & greenery in the heart of the city.  Having spent much of their time working in offices, people are wearied at the thought of having to spend their rest time in a place filled with boring and lifeless concrete structures.  

How we wish to have the best of both worlds – living in the city and in the garden at the same time!  And stepping up to the challenge, GuocoLand plans to bring this unique concept of nature resort living in the Midtown Modern Location where residents can enjoy the unmatched comfort of living in a tranquil garden within a vibrant city!  

Major Transformation At Downtown City

Voted as Singapore’s coolest ‘hood’ by Time Out, a popular online leisure portal, Bugis continues to shine as a rare melting pot for fascinating food, drink, arts and culture.  Ranked 29^th worldwide, the Midtown Modern Location offers a unique blend of everything that is characteristic of Singapore.  The Downtown City of Singapore consists of a few major areas namely the Central Business District, the Civic District, and the Beach Road-Bugis-Rochor cluster.  

Following the transformation of Marina Bayfront and Marina Bay Financial district, authorities have been steadfast in carrying out the rejuvenation of the neighboring districts which includes the Midtown Modern Location.

The rejuvenation of the Beach Road-Bugis-Rochor vicinity began with the redevelopment of Suntec City and Raffles Hotel followed by the addition of several integrated developments.  The transformation will reach a climax with the completion of the mega-developments at both Midtown Bay and Midtown Modern Location. 

The Bugis-Rochor area where Midtown Modern Location is situated is a matchless gem in terms of what it can offer to residents.  Located within close proximity to 4 historical districts, the Bugis-Rochor area bears a rich history of the founding generation of Singapore.  The 4 historical districts in the vicinity, Kampong Glam, Little India, Chinatown, and the Civic District, are gazetted for conservation, preserving the unique identity of their individual locations.  

Furthermore, in view of the rich cultural heritage of the area, URA Masterplan details the future development of an Arts Belt in the Bugis-Bras Basah area.  Notably, Bencoolen Street, Queen Street, and Waterloo Street will be transformed to feature staging grounds and spaces for arts and cultural events for the Singapore community to participate and enjoy! 

Another highlight to the Midtown Modern Location is the development of the North-South Corridor which is a 21.5 kilometers expressway with dedicated bus and cycling lanes.  Slated for completion in 2026, the North-South Corridor will help ease traffic from the northern part of Singapore into the city.  In addition, with the dedicated bus lanes, it is projected there will be a reduction of 10 to 15 minutes in the bus rides into the city.  Furthermore, the entrance and exit onto the North-South Corridor will be located along Nicoll Highway providing great accessibility to the Midtown Modern Location.

Right Above The MRT Interchange

Located right above Bugis MRT Interchange, Midtown Modern Location is in the center of amenities especially with Bugis Junction mall just right next door!  You can find a huge range of supplies at the supermarket and shops at Bugis Junction, including a wide range of dining options that stretch from fast food to fine dining restaurants.  In addition, Midtown Modern Location is within short walking distance to many large scale shopping malls in Raffles City, Suntec City, and Marina Square.

Furthermore, both Midtown I and Midtown II will offer their own retail shops and services.  And if you desire something uniquely Singapore, historical districts such as Kampong Glam, Chinatown, and Little India offer ample choices of authentic local art, culture, and food! 

Easy Accessibility to Good Schools

In terms of connectivity, Midtown Modern Location is well situated right above the Bugis MRT Interchange where you can access 2 major MRT lines namely the Downtown Line and the East-West Line.  Through the Downtown Line, many reputable schools in the Newton and Bukit Timah area are easily accessible.  These schools include Anglo Chinese School Primary which is only 3 stations from Bugis MRT via the Downtown line.  

The Downtown Line also enables quick commutes to other renowned schools along Bukit Timah such as Singapore Chinese Girls School (4 stops) and Hwa Chong Institution (6 stops).  Besides schools in Bukit Timah, travel to tertiary institutes such as the National University of Singapore, Singapore Polytechnic and Anglo-Chinese Junior College is also fast and traffic-free via the East-West MRT line.

Quick Commute to Business Districts Throughout Singapore

Besides effortless accessibility to many good schools, residents can enjoy a fast commute from the Midtown Modern Location to major business districts throughout Singapore.  For residents who are working in the Central Business District, Raffles Place and Tanjong Pagar are merely 2 to 3 stops away from Midtown Modern Location via the East-West MRT line.  Those working in Suntec City and Marina Bay area can also look forward to a fast train ride in less than 4 stops via the Downtown MRT line. 

Furthermore, those working in the western part of Singapore such as one-north and Jurong Lake District can also enjoy speedy travel to work via the East-West line.  Last but not least those working in the east such as Paya Lebar Square and Changi Business City can reach their workplace with a direct hassle-free MRT ride from Bugis Interchange.
