Hah, yeah now got choice more shopping for P Pasirian indeed. Mean more expensive too. When Nin Residence, The Sennette, Parcel B and Parcel C (launched together) are done by next election, this place look more like part of town. When will the P P Mrt commercial complex be launched ? I guess may be soon.

Yah, I guess the mixed project may be 7-9 storey given the size of the plot at juncture of completed woodsville interchange.

Saw from the tender prospectus, the potong pasir plots, part development most likely residences can be up to 64 AMSL (Above mean sea level) which is up to approximately 16 floor height limit

yep, Gahment bought over these 10 years back. Have been leasing these shop spaces fir quite few eateries, convenient stores, 24/7 supermaket, bengawan solo and of course the famous Jackson hawker centre - all these no more liao.

So make more sense to speed up the commercial plot just next to P P Mrt station means no more P P election rally in future. Any way P P SMC is history oredi

Come to think about it. there is a row of landed property opposite Kovan Melody and another row (newer one) oppposite Kovan Residence. I notice that the location is very good (since so near to MRT), how come nobody ibuys? Can it be because of potential acquistion?

How to check if this site is zoned for future housing expansion?
