why?

November 12th, 2004, 10:08 AM

the design of the a/c uses a system that needs constants maintenance to the equipments as it serve a larger and taller building. imagine a office tower the height of the Icon.

but Icon is residential...is there a difference in the aircon supply between residential and office building?

The model at the URA Gallery

As of today:

Floor plates are 9 stories.
Core is 12 stories.

The skyline view will likely be one of the coolest

Of course, they are rather advertising the sea view, hehe

I went to neighbouring Tanjong Pagar Plaza Block 2, 17th floor, to get a better idea:

Really cool ;-)
Only a few luxury units left on the uppermost floors, they say on the sign.

RafflesCity · January 11th, 2005, 09:40 AM

it has risen very fast! I can see the units forming!

until now, it took such a long time to see it rise, maybe becos the base is huge

however, those units facing the back might suffer if that plot of land is developed into a high-rise condo, which it is allocated for

Pengui · January 11th, 2005, 10:16 AM

It's massive indeed :-)
We can expect it to rise fast with 3 cranes on site and all the dust they make

drwho · January 24th, 2005, 12:59 PM

hyacinthus> nice picture!.. you should go to the construction workers and tell them to hurry up!

RafflesCity · January 24th, 2005, 02:31 PM

they seemed to have grown 1 floor in 2 weeks?

but its wide!

Its going to make a big impact

hyacinthus · January 24th, 2005, 03:35 PM

@drwho

nvm... they can take their time...

@RC
Maybe, I'll just take 1 every 2 months so that we can see more difference?

RafflesCity · January 24th, 2005, 03:37 PM

RafflesCity · January 24th, 2005, 03:41 PM

I'm hoping it will be faster now since theyve gone past the fat podium level

redstone · January 24th, 2005, 04:47 PM

RafflesCity · January 24th, 2005, 04:51 PM

redstone · January 24th, 2005, 04:54 PM

Update In Construction Progress. I think the Icon residents don't get much sunlight...

redstone · February 1st, 2005, 03:36 PM

Would add some much-needed density to Tanjong Pagar...

That temple looks strange.... Any pics of it?
