District Overview
A district in transformation. Guoco Tower proved the mixed-use thesis, and The Skywaters (formerly Fuji Xerox Towers) will become Southeast Asia's tallest building. CBDI 2.0 supports residential and hotel conversion, creating 24/7 activation.
URA Master Plan Highlights
- The Skywaters — 305m, 63 storeys, completion ~2028
- Newport Plaza — CBDI-supported mixed-use development
- Tanjong Pagar MRT + future CRL interchange
- Anson-Tanjong Pagar: 1,100+ new homes planned
Investment Thesis
The highest vacancy in the CBD (11.2%) is a near-term challenge but creates entry-point opportunities. The rejuvenation pipeline will fundamentally reshape the district's demand profile. Best value-add play in the Singapore CBD.
Risk Factors
- Elevated vacancy from shadow stock
- Construction disruption during redevelopment
- Higher capex for heritage-sensitive redevelopment
