hi, i thought it's 4 pieces of sliding door ?
regarding your qn to change to folding before. I asked before, its not allowed.
cheers
You are probably right. I may have seen wrongly.
I think they are busy on the swiming pool as there are cover on the swiming pool, there may be some kind of welding work as well as tiling work so they need cover. Right?
Pictures anyone?? :))
Hopefully SL will start on the carpark after this.

Its not allowed even at our own cost?
Its not allowed even at our own cost?
that's Singapore for you...lots of rules to follow...even your own dwelling place...rule is that it should not adversely affect the external facade, anyway, the inaugural MC for the first year, which is SL unlikely to approve...Subsequent years, perhaps if the MC is proactive enough, best is for MC to work out what is the acceptable design and put it to a vote...that's what strata title living is ....communal living...anything affecting the external facade firstly cannot flout URA and BCA rules and should not adversely affect the overall appearance of the development ....which can affect the value of the individual units...:beats-me-man:
Irritating isnt it :)
Private condo even more rules compared to HDB...haha
My current condo.... even after form MC (many years ago already la), never manage to get enough votes. I think 80% votes needed so some of these proposals, usually manage to get 60-70%... so can't pass through.
Right now, I'm only hoping the invisible grille won't face any problem. I'm half mind whether to submit it to the MC or not, coz is easier for them to just reject it.
Can dear sis share the process Double Bay went through to get it approved? I remember is quite troublesome. I heard my fren told me initially, even deck flooring also face issues... is it true?

Dear Shadus, i cant remember any process for the invisible grille leh... i noticed there are a set of standard window grilles are available for you to choose (but I didn't pay attention as i dont need it sorry...), but i can see several units already installed invisible grille in their huge balcony, and it's so obvious! hahaha... so far they are safe..
decking floor so far so good, but contructor said Livia got problem from URA. not so sure also..
I'm also hesitaing if installing windows on the backyard, as my backyard is even bigger than my 4th room! :o it's really wasted if i dont fully utilize it~ :D

Dear Mr Tay, if we dare dare install windows in backyard during first year, what will happen? :D

Dear Mr Tay, if we dare dare install windows in backyard during first year, what will happen? :D
Frankly, I don't think it flouts URA rule, since some backyards in condos already have windows, (as long as there is through ventilation and SMART windows allow for that) and in my AQbP case, we were allowed to fix windows (but it was only 2 panels). For WV for the 3 room backyard, its quite a long stretch at the aircon side and another short stretch next to the washing machine. Doubt if SL will approve and not sure if the wall was designed to take the windows weight ... ha ha. If you do without approval, quite a big risk.. My plan is just install the bamboo blinds with black and white stripes with pvc backing. That should contain the light to medium rain, probably not the heavy storm. When new MC takes over after 1 year, I do not see why others should object if it is feasible (ie wall can take it, etc), its glass, transparent, in backyard...should not adversely affect facade, whoever wants, install at own cost...why object even if u dont want it now, but good to have this option on hand, makes the unit more saleable in my opinion. :D

It really puzzle me how ca a foldable glass door without frame can affect facade? Think SL is just using that as an excuse ...:simmering:
1 unit at AQbP 1324 sq ft (same as my unit) sold in April at 1048 psf, bought in 2009 642 psf, Pr 537544 15.8% annualised. Suspect its my block at 13 storey undergoing renovation. :cool:

Dear sis, don't say sorry leh. We're very thankful for all your experience sharing. ya, invisible grille is not that "invisible"...haha.
Anyway, if i'm not wrong, the reason why all these are not allowed is SL afraid will fail final inspection.

I would love to install too... but actually, from far, it is pretty obvious. You can go to those condo with balcony and observe.
Some high end condo even more strict. The color of curtains is also fixed. Sometimes it seems to me the higher-end, the more ex, the more rules... LOL

yes, SL will not take the risk. to them, as long as can pass the final inspection, their job almost done. why bother to take risk and effort to deal with URA?
Maybe we can approach our dear MP Mr Low! hahaha :D isn't this part of his job? 为民请愿？:cheers5:

The board outside says Q3 TOP. So I think worker defined Q3 as August. Is that consistent with your interpretation Sis EastLover?

Bro Kengar
Q3 TOP definitely impossible regardless of what the main road "Board" said. Looking at the progress so far, Q4 13 may still pose a challenge to SL.
There're still many balconies glass frames not mounted yet + function room ?? + carpark + pools + playground + etc.....
Does anyone also noticed that we can't upload pics anymore, it seemed to have errors uploading.....been trying to upload pics of the Quarry, it's as big as Waterview or bigger....
You can access via Tampines Ave 10 > Tampines Ind Ave 1, about 300m you'll see a small road path leading to the Quarry.
You can also see many pple flying kites or motor planes at a big field there!!!
You'll be amazed how big the Quarry is.....definitely something gg to happen around the corner in the years to come....
Anyone got latest pics to share, you maybe able to upload them except me....
Cheers!!!

Thanks for the reply. I got kinda excited when I saw Q3...as I drive pass WV everyday to send my son to school and occasionally drive him home in the afternoon, there is still lots to be done.....so Q3..not really possible and I echo the bros/sis here that even Q4 looks challenging.
But we can always hope!

Yes that worker told me the Q3 is referring to August, so they hurryup now. But he also said high chance to delay as training days impact the progress ...
Let's see how long more they complete the carpark, join together, it seems they completed 2/3 liao :rolleyes:
Bytheway office moved to carpark now. Only 3 stack not install balcony yet, 3-4 block not install aircond yet... Progress ok lah

Thanks Kengar - via Picassa is easier & faster. I hope that WVers can post more photos with this method.
Thank you so much bro & EL for the progress photos. I'm sure SL is rushing their workforce - 3rd Quarter ends in Sept, last Quarter is from Oct - Dec. We still have 4 months+ till end of 3rd Q. Hope SL can finish everything by Aug & TOP by Sept 13.

Its a common problem in S'pore. Good to discover early when main con maintenance people still around (within the 1 yr), although waterproofing has 10 yrs warranty. B4 10 yrs up, one more check before the MC signs off. Repair is fairly easy. They will do grouting from the lower unit ceiling ... drill a few holes and pump in grout ...Of course best is not to have to go through this.

Br kengar, I just sent u the latest photos. Can u pls help to share in forum?
You can see SL installed the soil in the plots next to child pool, meanin landscape is going to start soon?
The club house finally joined with the carpark, can see how close to the model.
For the blocks near ave 1, half of them installed balcony, none of them installed aircond unit, meaning piping not completed?
See the units nearest one, one stack balcony floor not ready, thus can't install balcony.
For the tennis court, the flooring not done yet. But the fens already completed in block 79. Will join to next block once tennis court completed.
One good thing is that I'm so surprised to see the wall beside Tropica is ready!! Initially I thought its just a wired wall like WFW, but it seems a solid wall indeed! That's great!
so can expect TOP Q3 2013.??.....:jump-for-joy::jump-for-joy::violins:

thank you very much for sharing the photos. I think SL is doing well so far as they know trees need to grow a bit before TOP so they are starting land scape work.
Progress is great! I wonder how big/small the function room will be? Will it be on the top floor or the middle floor? Cos the top floor seems small. I would prefer a function size of Tropica's.
Thanks bro! Progress looks good right?:D

Actually can we convert the top floor room as study room or mini-library? just like Double Bay, very good concept~
BTW did you notice that the poles below function room in the model is different from the actual one? the actual implementation is straight one, for safety purpose? :D

I believe the photo shows the "top room" which is the main function room which can be reserved for private functions.
The other "room" with blue glass (left of picture) downstairs should be the "cafe" or "general room" for all guest to use?

wow you so detailed!
I was told that the lift are all installed but not activite yet.
For swimming pools, once they remove the cover, maybe they would complete the tiling already? the aqua exercise equipments and children water euipments should be quite straight forward? :p
By the way, the BBQ pits are built already, only left the deco and tents?
We need Eastboy to upload the photo from his sister's block, to see the progress of carpark from another end. it seems they completed the carpark in basketball court already. The walkway and viewing gallary is almost done i think. just to install the decking on top?
Does anyone have the model picture about basketball court? what will it link to the WV wall?

This is clearer - looks like the driveway (to the right of the main entrance) ends with going to thecarpark straight. The rest is grass, shrub, and trees

Tks for the pics again bros and sistas!
Sometimes I just try to avoid coming in to the forum n if I do, I can surprise myself with the speedy progression. Lol.
Anyone can advise if roller blind is allowed at the balcony? Saw some projects with it. Block the glaring sunlight in the day..
And.. I just realized..... Wv thread has 6k plus replies! Others just a few pages.... Lol.
Drove past the ave 10 just now, and saw that they planted trees on the area facing the reservoir. A step closer to completion. :)

so can expect TOP Q3 2013.??.....:jump-for-joy::jump-for-joy::violins:
Definitely very possible.
From picture, it looks like the current exterior progress looks v. much on track for end Q3 TOP. But interior progress, very hard to check.... have to assume they're aligned with exterior progress so give and take a bit, early Q4 looks very possible. They will take probably 3 months to distribute all the keys.

I think we can only derive the interior progress based on the progress of exterior. Need to consult Mr Tay again: :D
1. When they install balcony, can we assume the flooring are done?
2. When they install the aircond units, can we assume they have completed the wiring, piping, and bathroom ? (Bathroom possible??)
3. So the last part should be cabinets, wardrobe etc. I think they can build in factory and just install in WV right? Last time my Reno, the worker just took half day to install all the wardrobes in 4 bedrooms. So I hope the interior is easy part also?
Definitely very possible.

I think should have. Else they would be at super high risk.. I think something like clipping a thick wire to their waist..?? Like how the air con man jump out to repair the condenser unit. I almost freaked out last time. They r super bold.
Oh actually I meant the front balcony. Also I think it's quite nice to have it rolled halfway during the day. Like very cozy. :)

Dear All
Just to let you all know, I requested for a reconciliation of the supposedly 60% white:40% crystal blue colour scheme to what is painted at the actual site.
To my surprise, the architect now claims the crystal blue is actually only 30%. The reply came with an architect's illustration and calculation.
I am confused with the reply. Perhaps my comprehension of the letter and illustration is poor. Need some expert advice here.
I am not sure if anyone is still interested in this topic. Accordingly to Shirley, she says most us who had written to Sim Lian about the colour issue has ACCEPTED the colour scheme since nobody has raised any more questions.

Hi, I'm no expert but this is exactly how I expected them to justify the proportion of Crystal Blue versus White.
The Crystal Blue is painted on the surfaces that are parallel to the roads (i.e. these are the surfaces that are the most obvious to someone looking straight at each block from the road). The white is painted on all the surfaces that are perpendicular to the road and in other areas that are less visible when looking at each block. So even though the architect calculates the surface area painted in Crystal Blue and the surface area painted in white is 30%:70% by area, what is most obvious to someone looking at the property is that all the surfaces that face them are actually painted Blue, and the areas that are hidden from view are painted White! So while the architect's way of caluculating is technically not wrong, it is not what it seems to a person looking at the development. I bet the figure will be vastly different if they calculate only the surfaces that are visible from the road. This is exactly one of the things that irks me about this episode; that the architects and developer are just sweeping this under the carpet and grabbing at straws to justify their unilateral decision to change the colour. Anyone looking at the condo from outside can tell you that it looks mostly blue! :doh:

hi Sis, me no expert in this, but your deduction seems very logical. Am following all these with interest from Hanoi, thks to internet ha ha, just back from Halong Bay and spending a few more nights here to relax and enjoy the food. Progress looks good and early 4Q should be very doable.
I checked with SL - they say "last quarter of 2013 TOP, but dependent on weather and govt checks." to me its like Xmas or something, all the way to the end. But if they do a beginning Q4 - that would be a good present for us all. :)
Whatever it is, looking forward to it!

Hi all,
See attached photo.
I've been following NV Residences (Pasir Ris) FB and came across this very interesting resident behavior.
It is alleged that these are residents and supposedly "Chinese Nationals". They rented the BBQ pit which is next to the Aqua Pool.
After seasoning their BBQ food, they "washed" their hands in the pool :doh:
I hope our future WV residents are more civic-minded :)

While it seems from all the internet hype about foreigners, I don't think all are that bad.
There are some locals just equally bad.
At the end of the day, we are all going to be one-in-common, ie. Waterview Residents, regardless of race or religion :-)
Everyone just has to be civic minded to keep the harmony at our condo.
Be it late night noise to noisy kids screaming at the pool, to keep the areas clean...we all have to do our part. Management office only comes in when lines are crossed.
Yes, I hope so too and maybe its not yet planted onto it. Sadly I dont like the trees at present time, maybe it need to grow more leaves on it. :scared-5:
However, from the showflat model, from what i could see, there should be enough space for the BBQ pits which is next to block 79 even the trees are at present location.

Just met up with my ID.... Super looking forward!!!
Btw, I only paid the first 10% after down payment... N I check my mail box daily...mines the slowest block... :(
Dear sis EL.. Next time can help me take stack 44 if its not too troublesome... Thank u v much !!
Just got letter to pay 5% for doors, windows etc. Next 5% will be for carparks, drains, roadways, etc, and then TOP 25%.:cool:
My ID says can start prelim discussions in July. Ha ha:D
Hahaha.... agree with Mr. Tay n Shadus on colour, actually I more like the tone down blue now compared to when first saw it fresh. :D
What I preferred more is the overall layout, location and design floorplan of the project...:cheers5:
Went to also all the new project in east last year, but somehow ended up buying the last few units of WV:cheers5:
The pictures made WV looks like majestic crystal blue towers rising out of the water! :D You know, those towers where princesses of the past lives... so WV are where all the prince and princess dwells. I heard the king bought one of the penthouse overlooking the reservoir too!

Nice. Wanted to get a 2+s unit at WV from the subsale market but not enough money to foot the initial 40% downpayment -.-
hi potential neighbours! :cheers4: trying to buy one of the subsale units, and can't decide which stacks will have best view.
is this graphic accurate? would you all agree that the hottest stacks are 9,12,13,14
next best 40,42,43
worst are those facing tamp ave 1, too much road noise although its facing the quarry.
currently eyeing one of the stack 43 ones, view will be good, face reservoir? or what would you guys recommend? coming in this late I don't have the luxury of having seen the showflat or the mock-up model of the condo, would appreciate any advice/recomendations you all have. thanks in advance!! cheers :)
ps. how's the interior like? comparable to Qbay bo?

Hi ablaze,
All the stacks in WV are best. You mention the hot stack are best of the best. The mention hot stacks all are 3, 3+1 & 4 room. Are you looking for 3 room and above? The mock-up model and ID you can find from the beginning page. Waterview is better because much much cheaper (2010) than Qbay. That my :2cents: input.

One super plus point I realised about WV is that the balconies are not connected. They are separated by the lift tower. Cant imagine relaxing and chit chatting at the balcony and hearing yr neighbours just behind that thin piece of wall spearating the balconies.

In fact WV units all not link (except the HS back to back), just like HDB point units, there is a big distance between units.
your renovation will not impact your neigbour's wall :D

Welcome to FEC!
Which stack is the best? Actually, it really depends your buget and needs - do you want 3 bedder? 3+Study or 4 bedder? :rolleyes:
stack 43 will have double view - reservior view + pool view.
Wish you can find your dream house here :cheers4:

1 pointer, stack 19 & 17 is 3+1, but floor size is smaller than some 3 bedder. (this is due to not having a back balcony and surprisingly the only block with 3+1 & 4bedder). you can visit below for the floor plans

Not true. In fact you get to hear and see your neighbor clearly. Can also peek into your living room when standing at the side of the balcony. My previous apt is similar to this layout.

Huh? You sure? The gap between the 2 balconies are about the width of the lift lobby leh.... u got to be very very tall, if not, I doubt u can peep inside to the other unit's living room. Unless u are talking about back balcony, which cant be seen from the actual site now.;)

If you look at the waterfront series though all have water theme, they made an effort to make it sound good. Doesn't matter, just take waterview as unique otherwise everybody start to flame me. This is just personal preference. Name to me quite important.

'Palace' sounds like night club as I saw many night clubs' name with 'Palace'.2cents:
Btw, do any one know the exact size/measurement of the study room?
Based on the drawings of 1:100 scale, it works out to be 2.3m length x 1.7m width, which is quite small. :(

Yes, a single bed is able to fit, but the door may not completely open, unless the door is folding type :) My intention is to use it for my maid, maybe custom a recess type of bed with shelves above it for storage.

I believe SL must have the workers washed & cleaned up internally the completed units~so when the external works are done ~ it's finish!
Can TOP soon. Pray hard no objections/discrepancies found from the different Authorities.
Hi, did anyone receive letter from lawyers to pay some legal fees? I had the idea that that bank abosrbed all legal fees since its new development but recently receive a letter to pay the lawyers like 600+.
May i ask the 5% is for the door frame or completion of car park, road and drains?
have not been in that area for 2 weeks, not too sure on the latest progress.
Quoting desquire's old post,
1) 5% booking
2) 15% 8th week
3) 10% foundation
4) 10% concrete framework
5) 5% brick walll
6) 5% celling
7) 5% door & window, internal plastering
8) 5% car park & drain
9) 25% TOP
10) 15% Completion
i'm guessing it's item 7 cos i dun track that often too.

This is depends, When do you purchase the your unit, have you take up loan from the bank?
Some bank will absorb the legal fee if you take up their loan.
Thanks Sis EastLover & Kengar for the pics. Looking good. Wife already bought new pots - HappyCall and Luzerne New Bone crockery - ha ha, she just couldn't resist. On schedule to have first consultation with Stan sometime in late July, depending on progress .... no hurry for me ....:cheers4:

I drove by yesterday, I saw the level 2 just putting up the walls between the hall and the first room. Also noticed all the sliding doors are not up yet. This was coming down Tampines road. Looks like this will be faster....fingers crossed!
Hi FEC
Attached are pictures taken on 15 June 13.
Progress looks good, they are rushing to complete the exterior. Not too sure abt the interior progress,could see that some of the units air-cons, balcony, kitchen cabinets, rear balcony gates and balcony sliding door has been installed. The tiles of the swimming pool are almost done.
Presently concentrating on the entrance, the fitness area, basketball court and the clubhouse.
Lets hope for the best.

May need to consult Mr Tay again :D

Hi folks,
It is indeed exciting reading posts about the progress of WV.
Was wondering how many of you folks have young children and die die need to put up invisible grills for the safety of our kids??
Should we pool our requirements together and rally Sim Lian to look into this as a bulk requirement, probably like what they would be doing for window grills??

I would be keen to put it up cos i've a gal too
Hi folks,
It is indeed exciting reading posts about the progress of WV.

I will be keen in installing the invisible grills too. I'm not sure if i should just do it (tm) during the reno.

I need a grille too. Either invisible grille or the glass panel type is ok for me.

Did construction work slow down because of the haze? Hope it does not push back the TOP date :(
I guess some delay would be inevitable. Imagine the workers got to work under such bad condition, very likely will work at slower pace.
Does anyone know that will waterview be fibre ready when we shift in?

Depends on what you mean as fibre ready. Both Tropica n AqbP have opennet fibre termination near the main entrance. Looking at clover by the park case where sl is also the developer, sl used cat5e cable for the telephone plugs in rooms etc. As phone only use 2 wires in the 8 core cat5e cabling, the remaining wires can be used for a wired network. The opennet termination box should be in the yard n with the right equipment, we should be able to get a wired network up by using the spare wires n install Ethernet jacks in each room n those places where a phone jack has been installed. This gentleman named Jason had provided vy elaborate details of how this can be done at his webpage Living@clover.

Thks for the tip. I will probably wireless first with booster stations. If that doesnt work too well, will try this method. Trying to cut down on the number of wires. What with all the different adaptors and charges for handphones, tablets, routers, media player, notebooks, etc, I'm going wire bonkers :scared-3:

If haze becomes a yearly monster, then games over liao....:doh: :doh:
Beside worrying for backyard glass pane, you need to worry disease like TB, asth..., foreign rich people exodus, sharp prop price drop...totally over Liao.:banghead: :banghead:

Not to warry as I stopped today 3pm at Bedok resourvoir park, saw the workers are working as normal. Of course it was blue sky at that time. Noticed that quite a number of trees are line up around the swimming pool. It is nice.

Thanks sis!!! U r the best!!
Woah, the speed is amazing! It's only a week ago that u posted the last. Really so happy seeing the progress. Haha! But.... Why the swimming pool take so long? Are they fixing the tiles?
Anyone has any idea why the windows are still not installed for some penthouse? Just curious... Or it my eyesight problem.. Lol

I suspect the owner bought 2 pent house units side by side and request sim Lian to hack down the wall in between to make it a super big balcony. :o

I guess it is safety reason, noticed that there are some chains are from top to ground floor still in use, so they probably scare to damage the galss panel if they install it earlier.

haha, now ppl starting to believe in Q4 TOP.... Seeing is believing!!!
My Manhattan forums reported that owners had received letters from developer informing TOP in Q4 13. Looking at their pics 9I have not seen the site for some time), WV seems more advanced, so I have hopes WV should complete b4 MM. If MM can make it by Q4, surely WV will be early Q4 if not Q3 :cheers4: Lets hope the haze is gone 4 good. More haze less speed.:cheers3:

Hmm. Thou SOR remains low, The fixed component is going up... Or ... Already went up. Heard sibor is going up too. 内目消息。。。dunno true not...
I was looking at my progressive payment letter from the lawyer and it occur to me that collectively, in this forum, we can update on internal progress. For eg. my Blk 95, every unit is done. The next payment will be for external (car park, swimming pool etc) and the payment after is TOP.
So now we know Blk 95 is done. Anyone else wanna update for their blk?

At last I have been allowed to register!
Long time reader, finally able to contribute :D
We are in block 75, stack 08, partial reservoir view, overlooking the tennis court, 3+1 unit.
Next payment for our stack will be car-park and roads.
Going back the invisible grills on the balcony - I have 2 small kids (4+2) and there is no way I won't be putting some sort of grill up there. This is my first Singapore property - what can they legally do to stop us from doing this? Especially as its a health & Safety issue for kids! I'm from the UK, and back there this would not even be up for discussion! :beats-me-man:

Best is to wait for TOP. Usually when you collect your keys, they will give you a welcome package containing your keys and a file of the house-rules or do's and don'ts. Questions of putting up grills and the type of grills shld be inside. If not, just ask. Very unlikely grills are not allowed. Relax :D

Hi all! If I want to keep my interior walls white, do I still have to paint them?
I think the interior will be painted white by default right?

Yup, all new units generally come with standard white walls.
i find it weird why they painted the blocks in light jade color. :beats-me-man:
it looks weird. the color doesnt fit w the blocky design.
