SINGAPORE – Mapletree Investments (“Mapletree” or “the Group”) is pleased to announce plans for its new 123,000 square metres (“sqm”) flagship commercial project in Singapore’s Greater Southern Waterfront (“GSW”). As part of its latest HarbourFront Precinct’s rejuvenation, HarbourFront Centre will be transformed into a landmark that redefines Singapore’s southern skyline.

Mapletree’s new premium integrated development is set to enhance the HarbourFront Precinct and further anchor it as a vibrant business and lifestyle hub in southern Singapore.

New 33-storey Premium Integrated Development

The new 33-storey landmark pairs upscale retail with premium best-in-class office space at an established waterfront address with full-fledged amenities. It comprises 26 floors of Grade A office specifications (Levels 8 to 33) and five floors of engaging spaces for an experiential visit (Basement 2 to Level 3).

The premium office tower welcomes tenants through an exclusive lobby featuring 16-metre-high ceilings and bespoke finishes. Its column-free layout maximises space efficiency and flexibility, complemented by expansive floor-to-ceiling windows. The retail podium will offer shoppers curated fresh concepts alongside interactive brand experiences.

With a green tapestry cascading from the office tower into a 13,000 sqm elevated verdant park and located adjacent to a newly created stretch of waterfront promenade, tenants and visitors can enjoy sunset views of the Singapore Strait as well as waterfront walks and activities.

Mr Hiew Yoon Khong, Group Chief Executive Officer, Mapletree, said: “The reimagined HarbourFront Centre reflects the Group’s broader vision of rejuvenating the HarbourFront Precinct, further establishing it as a vibrant business and lifestyle hub in southern Singapore. As a leading real estate developer, Mapletree sees a compelling opportunity to unlock greater value by transforming HarbourFront Centre to better serve the needs of our tenants, visitors and residents in the precinct. Leveraging 25 years of proven development expertise, this flagship commercial project marks another milestone for Mapletree and we look forward to creating another development well-positioned for the future.”

Ms Amy Ng, Regional Chief Executive Officer, South East Asia and Group Retail, Mapletree, added: “We are pleased to introduce this transformative project to create an upscale destination in the heart of the GSW. This project will anchor the HarbourFront Precinct as a Southern Waterfront gateway hub. Our commitment to anticipating market needs drives our efforts to reposition our assets for long-term performance and maximise value for our stakeholders.”

Strategic Location and Sustainable Features

Strategically located within the 24-hectare HarbourFront Precinct, the premium integrated development is flanked by VivoCity in the east, HarbourFront Towers One and Two and the new two-storey cruise and ferry terminal in the west. The terminal will commence its operations at the new premises next to the existing HarbourFront Centre around 2H 2026. It also offers unparalleled connectivity within HarbourFront Precinct and is directly connected to HarbourFront MRT station with access to the North East and Circle Lines. Connectivity will be further strengthened with the completion of the Circle Line loop in 1H 2026, benefiting tenants, visitors and residents. 

In addition, the flagship commercial project will be complemented with full-height glazing and refined horizontal louvres to improve passive shading for energy efficiency, while also optimising the 360° panoramic views of the sea in the south, and the Southern Ridges as well as the city in the north. To promote sustainable and green commuting via the coastal cycling network in the GSW, the new development will offer ample bicycle parking and end-of-trip facilities. A range of sustainable elements – including a solar photovoltaic system to reduce reliance on grid energy, sustainable water management practices, a smart lighting system and electric vehicle charging stations – will also be included.

The premium integrated development prioritises energy efficiency and environmental responsibility, aiming to achieve the BCA Green Mark 2021 Platinum SLE and LEED Platinum certifications, reflecting Mapletree’s strong commitment to sustainability and climate resilience.

Newest Iconic Landmark in the GSW

The new development is also well-positioned to support the approximately 100,000 existing homes in the Bukit Merah, Queenstown and Sentosa areas as well as the emerging communities of about 10,000 public and private homes in the new residential enclave of Berlayar Estate. It is also conveniently located near 13 interconnected green spaces, accessible through curated trails within the South-Western Parks and Connectivity Network. This strategic position enhances the development’s appeal to a growing community of residents, tourists and global businesses.

To pave the way for the transformative works, HarbourFront Centre is slated for closure in 2H 2026 and the new development is expected to be completed by 1H 2031. Mapletree will provide relevant updates as the new development progresses.
