The 234 Apartment

AT least two projects nestled in a mature residential precinct in District 9 near Somerset are being run as serviced apartments - despite not having the regulatory approval to do so - and a third one is opening. Oxley Thanksgiving Residence , a freehold condominium at 328 River Valley Road owned by Chinese temple Poh Ern Shih , and St Thomas Lodge , which also sits on freehold land at 32 St Thomas Walk , are listed for short-term stay on the website of accommodation service provider Atas Residence . The Business Times' visit to these projects confirmed that they are being run as serviced apartments. A third property, Devonshire Apartments at 17 Devonshire Road , has just undergone a major renovation, and the units there are understood to be starting a new chapter as serviced apartments this month. BT's query to the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) confirmed that these three properties are currently approved for residential use, but "do not have planning permission to...

SINGAPORE: More than 100,000 new jobs will be created and 20,000 homes built in the 360- hectare Jurong Lake District , the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) said on Friday (Aug 25). The Jurong Lake District project - set to be completed after 2040 - was first announced in 2008 as part of URA's efforts to provide more job and recreational options in the heartlands. The Government has said it plans to transform the area into Singapore's second central business district . The new jobs will be created in sectors such as the maritime industry, with the future Tuas mega port ; infrastructure development, due to the neighbouring Jurong Industrial Estate ; and in the technology sector with the Nanyang Technological University and the planned Jurong Innovation District nearby , URA said. New residential developments will also be built in this western corridor, which will be a mixed-use business district . However, the exact mix of private and public development has not yet been d...

An inner- city Wellington site with resource consent for a 22-storey mixed-use building is up for sale. The land is being sold by the owners of an Auckland development company  who have decided to concentrate their interests there. The property, on the corner of Victoria and Bond streets, is home to two, two- storey 1920s buildings , which house small retail and hospitality tenants, with residential accommodation above. However, the development firm has had plans drawn up, which allows a 22-storey mixed-use development with retail at stre...

The Northpointe Village shopping center could get a 300- unit apartment complex , on a vacant parcel with rental appeal for employees of Mettler Toledo. The Swiss- manufacturer broke ground in January on a 250,000-square-foot plant, within Northpointe. The plant is expected to bring about 500 jobs into Pasco County, with about 185 of them being new jobs for the company. Northpointe Village is a walkable ‘main street’ village concept with offices and shops, off State Road 54 at Suncoast Parkway. Apartments would add a residential component to the development. (Kathy Steele) Members of the Pasco County Development Review Committee recommended approval of the apartments at their March 30 meeting in New Port Richey. The matter now goes to the Pasco County commissioners for a final vote. Letters of support came from the board of directors of the North Pointe at Suncoast Crossings Owners Association , and Mettler Toledo. Mettler’s General Manager Viggo Nielsen wrote that the apartments...

click to enlarge Crews on site at 2447 Cass, which housing preservationists say is slated for demolition. Historic preservationists are keeping a watchful eye on three brick multi- level buildings that stand in the shadow of the Little Caesars Arena after getting word last week that the Ilitch family- owned Olympia Development had planned to demolish them without permission. The company’s contractors had previously obtained demolition permits for the more than hundred-year-old buildings, but according to the city's buildings department, the permits are frozen as the city studies whether the buildings are eligible for historic designation. Alarm bells first went off Tuesday when workers in neon shirts and hard hats showed up outside the more than hundred-year-old buildings at Cass Avenue and Henry Street, near Woodward and I-75. With them was a truck printed with the Homrich logo— a company known for its work in demolition and remediation. The activity sparked swif...

616 Lofts at 820 Monroe Ave. NW in Grand Rapids. (Photo: Facebook.com/616Lofts) GRAND RAPIDS, MICH. - Despite a relative lull in multifamily residential housing construction at the beginning of 2017, indications point to another surge. Currently in the city of Grand Rapids, there are 19 projects under construction and more than 2,000 apartment units, most of which fall into the market-rate category. Meanwhile, there are 15 proposed or approved projects in the city with nearly 15,000 units, many of which qualify as affordable housing developments . Several projects seemed to stall earlier this year, and at least one project, the Warner Building, switched from a residential component to hotel prior to its groundbreaking in June. A major signal residential might still have forward momentum is the groundbreaking of 601 Bond by the New York- based development group Time Equities Inc. The 16-story, 140-unit mixed-use building in the North Monroe neighborhood had gone dark for months be...

Along Florida's Turnpike in South Miami -Dade, where potato farms and fields of row crops stretched all the way to the visible horizon at the time when Hurricane Andrew struck , it’s virtually all rows of close-packed houses and townhomes today. Now the unavoidable noise walls are going up to forever block vistas once among the most beguiling in South Florida. Along South Dixie Highway , where scraggly lots, small farm fields and vegetable- and fruit-packing houses once mixed it up with used-car lots and budget motels, the landscape is a cornucopia of strip malls, Publix and Wal-Mart stores and fast- food chain restaurants . And everywhere there is traffic, backed up one way in the morning, when three-quarters of all employed adults in South Miami - Dade head north to downtown Miami , Coral Gables or even Doral to work, and the other way when they drive back home in the evening. Lightning struck as thunderstorms swept through the ruins of Homestead in the days after Hurricane...
