<strong>Jurong</strong> Lake District; the next CBD<br />
<strong>Jurong</strong> Lake District 5 is a major regional centre in the west of<br />
Singapore which provides an attractive location for commercial<br />
development outside the city centre. The aim is to cater to the<br />
diverse needs of businesses and to create job opportunities<br />
closer to where people live.<br />
It is further believed that its proximity to more than 3,000<br />
multinational and global businesses clustered in the International<br />
Business Park and the <strong>Jurong</strong> and Tuas Industrial Estates could<br />
make it “the next CBD of Singapore”.<br />
<strong>Jurong</strong> Gateway<br />
The 70-hectare <strong>Jurong</strong> Gateway 6 is projected to be developed<br />
into a vibrant commercial hub; the biggest outside the<br />
Central Business District with about 500,000 square metres<br />
of office space and 250,000 square metres of retail, F&B and<br />
entertainment. An estimated 2,800 hotel rooms are projected to<br />
also be developed to cater to business travellers and to visitors<br />
of the leisure destinations around the lake. To add vitality and<br />
create a “live, work, play and learn” environment, 1,000 or more<br />
homes are targeted to be introduced.<br />
<strong>Jurong</strong> Lakeside<br />
<strong>Jurong</strong> Lakeside 6 spreads over 290 hectares, where new parks, improved promenades, more<br />
water activities and numerous attractions are expected to be blended in with the scenic lakeside<br />
setting. It seeks to be a key recreational and edutainment destination while complementing<br />
the commercial and residential uses of the areas nearby.<br />
