RC and I were assuming something low or midrise would get built here... We were damn wrong ^ ^

Well thats ok...at 43 storeys it will look gigantic as there are no other highrise structures next to it.

However, lets hope that the design is a firm one and not just a proposed one. ;-)

It does look like one of the WTC proposal in NY though.

LOL...dont bother staying up for it as it will probably be a while before it starts rising

redstone · February 24th, 2006, 03:55 PM

This is unbelievable...

Andrew · February 24th, 2006, 06:21 PM

This is an amazing proposal and it'll look huge at Keppel Bay, there's nothing even approaching that height in it's immediate vacinity.

PJCCUK · February 25th, 2006, 10:02 AM

It's horrible! That area needs low rise to protect the view of mount faber! HORRIBLE, ridiculous as well!

redstone · February 25th, 2006, 01:15 PM

is it confirmed?

JoSin · February 25th, 2006, 04:31 PM

How can it be horrible? If it is horrible what do u say about all the buildings blocking the view of all the mountains behind hong kong skyline?

heirloom · February 25th, 2006, 05:22 PM

why's every development either 30 or 43 storeys?

RafflesCity · February 26th, 2006, 04:07 PM

Plot ratio and height control requirements probably.

I can imagine the developer boasting that they have a world-famous architect behind their project

heirloom · February 26th, 2006, 04:47 PM

definitely

i hope they actually mention daniel libeskind and not just trumpet "world famous"

redstone · February 26th, 2006, 04:59 PM

Hope it's confirmed!

asciano · April 4th, 2006, 04:17 AM

Cliff · April 4th, 2006, 06:51 AM

JoSin · May 6th, 2006, 10:53 AM

Keppel to build more waterfront homes

22 Nov 06

THE Keppel group has become the latest developer here to cash in on the craze for plush waterfront living.
It says it may build exclusive villas on the 5.3 ha Keppel Island that it owns in Keppel Bay - home to a shipyard until 2000.

And it will launch a condominium designed by world renowned architect Daniel Libeskind, who is designing the masterplan for New York's ground zero site.

Keppel said it will launch the 1,200-unit waterfront condo - known as Keppel Bay phase two - early next year.

It will sit on about 84,000sqm of land on the mainland opposite the island, with a shoreline of 750m, unusually long for a condominium. It will have six high-rise blocks and some spacious low-rise apartments.

The condominium will be part of the 4.86 million sqft Keppel Bay mega development, which is 70 per cent owned by Keppel Corp and 30 per cent by its unit Keppel Land.

About 2,800 homes are set to built, including the existing 969-unit Caribbean at Keppel Bay, which is almost sold out.

The most exclusive homes of the lot are likely to be reserved for Keppel Island, where the Marina@Keppel Bay, a separate development, will be completed by late next year. The marina will have high-end restaurants and tentative plans are for high-end villas and possibly condominium units on the island.

A 245m cable-stay bridge, to be completed by the first quarter next year, will link the island to the mainland.

Keppel also has two other smaller plots for condominiums on the other side of the Caribbean. One is 3.4ha in size while the other, a joint venture with Mapletree, is 2.9ha.
