Two key schemes to rejuvenate CBD extended for another five years
Two key urban rejuvenation schemes to liven up the central business district will be extended for another five years. In the Anson-Tanjong Pagar area, four projects are in progress to breathe new life into ageing offices. This new network has been dubbed 'Streets and Squares'. With the completion of all these projects in the coming years, the Anson-Tanjong Pagar area will be transformed into a vibrant mixed-use urban neighbourhood with more than 1,000 new homes, hotels, shops and eateries, as well as new public spaces and more active street fronts.
