The Collective At One Sophia: Central Area URA Master Plan

D9 falls under the Central Area URA Master Plan. The central area is home to Singapore’s global business and financial hub and serves as a vibrant lifestyle destination for locals and visitors alike. Rejuvenating works in the pipeline will grow the area by diversifying land use to accommodate more jobs and business opportunities.

Full operation of the Thomson-East Coast Line will significantly boost connectivity to the city centre, further reinforcing the development’s investment potential.

Orchard Road will be upgraded from a shopping haven to a mixed-use urban corridor with seamless connectivity to the Singapore Botanic Gardens and Fort Canning Park. This will form a portion of a 6km green corridor linking key historic landmarks along the Singapore Botanic Gardens, The Istana, Fort Canning Park and the Singapore River.

Heritage-rich precincts in the area, such as Kampong Glam, Little India, and Chinatown, will further be injected with new life through continued place-making efforts in collaboration with local communities and businesses.
