Singapore to redevelop Dakota Crescent: MND Minister Lawrence Wong

HDB flats will be built, whilst the central courtyard will be retained.

One of Singapore's first housing projects, Dakota Crescent, will be developed by Singaporean authorities, Minister for National Development Lawrence Wong said.

According to a Facebook post, authorities will build new HDB flats and retain the central cluster of buildings around the courtyard for community uses.

Dakota Crescent was developed by the Singapore Improvement Trust (SIT) in 1958 as a public rental housing estate. It previously had 15 low-rise blocks and the popular dove playground, the minister said.

"We will continue to engage stakeholders and involve the wider community as we redevelop this estate," Wong added.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
