Here's comes monsoon rain

A planned work to install the first of the Prefab had hit a snag die to rain. As you can see the cranes and Prefab units are in place to be lifted. However the incremental weather gave it a halt that the main con dreaded. 

Can you guess which model of the flat it belongs to?

BLK 820 is progressing the fastest and likely we will see the 'lego' pre-fab units blocks going up soon. 

Prefab construction site

More of the previously constructed Prefab units are brought back on site. No new refab units were constructed yet since phase 2 started.

The quick build dormitory across the road seems to be ready for TOP. 

Nice rows of 'Landed terrace' awaits our foreign workers. Hope they can stay safe in the new dorms amid the pandemic.

And the pre-fab units are back again.

We still have no clue why whey were removed and brought back again. Our best guess is those were probably sent for testing since they are the first batch or could be because they have been in the elements for months. 

Hope to see the commencement of "Lego" stacking soon. 

BTO booking is closing!

It's a beautiful Sunday. 

Have you booked your BTO unit yet? 

Launch Launch Launch

The much awaited Choa Chu Kang BTO is finally launched. There are a total of 571 units of 2 to 4 room flats for applications.

The good news is that Keat Hong Verge has the shortest waiting time of just 23 months to key collection as compared to some BTOs that need a jaw dropping 5 years to complete! This is due to the additional measures required for construction sector to fight against COVID-19.

We do expect construction cost to go up in the near future due to all the additional safety measures for foreign worker dorms and thus the increase in cost of labour as well as raw materials. So do your maths and choose an affordable unit within your budget.

From the photos, you may be thinking that construction of the lower floor units may have commenced. But that isn't the case even thou the pre-fab units have gone "missing".

Over the past few days, we saw trailers transporting most of the pre-fab units that have been sitting there for months off the site. We have no idea why but it could be sent for testing or maybe even used for other sites. Do you know why? Let us know in the comments below.

Happy National Day

Are you ready for August BTO - Keat Hong Verge

The Keat Hong Verge construction site has roared back to life. Dust and construction noise breaks the calm and peace for the past few months.

While the foundation and formworks have progressed a lot, you may have noticed the 2 cranes have not moved an inch since phase 2 resumed. Probably the crane operators are still under quarantine in the dorms.

And good news is the BTO will finally be launched this month after much delays due to circuit breaker.
