• Since the Lorong Puntong site was sold in October 2014, and the Ang Mo Kio Avenue 2/ Ang Mo Kio Street 13 site was awarded in January 2013, this is the most recent government land sales site to be offered in that region.
• Given the lack of new private residential launches in the area in recent years, the Ang Mo Kio Avenue 1 development should pique buyer interest, particularly among HDB households in Ang Mo Kio and Bishan wanting to upgrade to a private home. According to the HDB, Ang Mo Kio has a population of 143,800 HDB residents, whereas Bishan has a population of 63,200.

Nature & Parks

1. Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park

Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park, one of Singapore's largest urban parks, is a terrific area for families to spend a fun day out. The former concrete canal has been de-concretized and naturalized into a magnificent 3 km flowing river with rich banks of wildflowers as part of the PUB's Active, Beautiful, and Clean Waters (ABC) Program. Aside from its distinctive waterways, the park is known for its beautiful flora, Pond Gardens, and River Plains, making it a popular recreational destination for locals.

2. Lower Pierce Reservoir

The Lower Peirce Reservoir, Singapore's second-oldest reservoir, was completed in 1912 by impounding the Kallang River's upper reaches. The forest that lines its banks is classified as a mature secondary rainforest, with abundant rubber trees and oil palms - tangible memories of a time when Singapore was blanketed in plantations.

The Central Catchment Nature Reserve includes the Lower Peirce Nature Trail Boardwalk. This Nature Boardwalk runs along the border of Lower Peirce Reservoir and through one of Singapore's last surviving mature secondary secondary woods. Many kinds of birds, mammals, insects, and other animals that are adapted to the forest environment call it home.
