Prices
Nearby Altez @ Enggor has seen a price range of $1,600 to $2,300 psf and a median price of $1,817 psf last month according to recent URA data. So expect to see something around the $2,000 psf mark.

UPDATE:
Our Facebook fan has given us an update on the prices -

Level #06 to #08 : $1600+/- psf
Level #12 to #17 : $1700 - $1870+/- psf
Level #23 to #27 : $1950 - $2200+/- psf
Level #33 to #35 : $2150 - $2510+/- psf

As always, we appreciate your contribution!

Early thoughts
We suggest taking the high floor 2BR units facing East. They are larger than average and one gets a nice view of the City as well as the Marina Bay Sands.

Low floor units will have to contend with the AYE to the south. Tanjong Pagar Terminal could be a turn off for some.

Looks like it would be ideal for renting to expats working in the CBD.
