By the way, this layout also considered as Stove and WC (Bath 2) side by side?

Found this thread: Looks like Substation not a problem then?

Another view from HDBs near Central Grove and TRE Residences:

By the way, this layout has Fire Stove and WC side by side... Ops.

I see... How about the Grey Cages as below? Are they threatening to nearby units?

Potentially L1-L5 no impacts? (As long as not seeing the shapes as "arrows")

These poison arrows are pointing upwards, likely hitting higher floors (say Level 6-8 depending on the view from Balconies of respective Units) ... In this case, the lower floors (e.g. 1 to 5) will not be affected?

Looking at TRE's floor plans, looks like most walls (even those exterior of the house) are rather thin (and dry):

Central Grove overlooking TRE Residences' future pool:

Sims Green overlooking Alcove's Pool:

One Condo enjoying the Pool View of the other: Sims Green overlooking Al Cove Pool, but not the other way round. Similarly, Central Grove overlooking TRE Residences Pool, again not the other way around.

Free one Mai Hiam...

Lucky HDB Residents, get pool view for free, can also be the additional Selling Point for their units. More examples below: Rosewood from nearby Woodlands HDBs.

Just a few examples that I know of... Let me know, if you know of more... #1: Residents of HDB Block 102 Aljunied Crescent get to enjoy the rare double pools views of Sims Urban Oasis for free.

Another U Shape candidate: Atrium Residences right next to Guillemard Edge.

For the above Floor Plan, the wall between Bath 2 and Bedroom 4 seem to be Dry Wall though. That makes it the 0.01% then?

This development (Guillemard Edge) would be U Shape I guess...

For this sample floor plan, judging from the wall thickness, maybe those marked in Green are Solid Walls, while those marked in Blue would be Dry Walls. Interesing that the same wall surfaces are actually made up of different materials.

In this case, this one would be like Half Horse Shoe plus Half U Shape... Maybe 50% good in Feng Shui sense?

Hi Master, just happened to stumble on this topic. With reference to the Site Plan of Sims Oasis as below, would it be considered as U-shaped too?

For the walls at TRE, maybe need to wait until the readiness of the actual on-site show units to find out... I may drop by the Sims someday to take a look. But how to tell if it's solid wall or dry wall? By thickness? Or knock knock?

From my limited experiences so far, sometimes Big Projects progresses much faster than smaller projects, e.g.: 1. Sims Urban Oasis (1000+ units, launched in 2015, est TOP 2018) vs TRE Residences (200+ units, launched in 2014, est TOP 2019). 2. Guillemard Edge (200+ UNITS, launched 2012, TOP early 2014) vs many other smaller projects at Geylang (mostly between 50-100 units, some launched 2011, TOP in 2015/16.) This could possibly be due to a few reasons: 1. Economy of Scale: Big and Small projects both require similar administration overheads, hence large project has lower overhead costs per unit. 2. The need to recoup large investments more quickly. 3. Reputation also more at stake for big projects which are more visible with more buyers involved. 4. Last but not least, many units to sell means need to build units more quickly to attract buyers, else may face ABSD. Just my 2 cents...

Indeed, the unblocked views may not last... Pool views are safer bets.

Some pictures of Le Crescendo, if anyone are interested...

Recent Pictures, TOP should be very soon...
