Kallang Riverside review

My 2c: 1. Really ambitious developer or marketing team. Dare to price reference alongside Keppel Bay projects. They are totally different worlds. 2. Nice suspended sky pool 35m long. 3. High 3.2m ceiling. 4. Very spacious master bathrooms. 5. Dont like time limited finishing options sales tactic eg. for free Marble flooring and glass partition panels for bedroom. 6. Piped in encased aircon is nice touch. 7. Developer track record in question. 8. 2000psf for mid floor one bedder is... WOW. 9. Verdict: Find better value elsewhere.

For instance, five-bedders shrank the most with average sizes of the biggest units dropping from 2,035 sq ft to 1,569 sq ft, while the smallest units in this configuration shrank from 1,605 sq ft to 1,505 sq ft.
