I do agree with you. unit 109 and others on same row will be noisy and and will be facing chaotic scenery due to the traffic and others that are not suitable for kids. the inner units somehow gives the sense of security.

Choices differs... But I agree with you. Those with young children will not choose BL mainly due to environment.

For BL, the path way from the main door cut through the living room in a weird way. That's what I feel, since the dining portion now becomes too small to hold a proper table without extruding out. You will be able to see half of your dining table 'hanging' there when you open your main door. Check out the recommended floor plan.
MT has a very decent dining hall, personally I feel it is easier to fit the furniture.

I've noticed the same thing too. i was inclined to choose BL but looking at the layout of the rooms seems like MT is a better choice as living/dining seems bigger, and the masterbath seems nicer too and don't look cramped as the common bath. Now really having dilemma if we should go with MT, comfort over price? i think in the end comfort will play a big deciding factor.

looking at the pricing i must say i am really disappointed.

of course most people will go for MT since the pricing is not much different with BL.

i thot BL will be significantly cheaper but i am so wrong.

PPL who are getting KW, did you notice the estimated delivery possession date? 30 Nov 2017!!! Is HDB slowing down construction again???!!! Or is delivery possession date normally much later than key collection date??

plz help help, i'm looking for my first flat, but i really don't wanna wait so long :eek:

Usually for BTOs that are 40 storeys high, the duration for construction is 4-5 years. I think this is because they need more time to do the piling. I rather wait than rush them. I have lived nearby both sites for the past 15 years and I've experienced 3 scary tremors from Indonesian earthquakes. So its best to give them more time to do a good job :o

If use 4 to 5 yrs to construct a 40 sty BTO, the contractor will go bust immediately. It shouldn't take more than 3.5 yrs.

If you are comparing only on mcnair tower, Its not a bad choice. its ranked at no.2 in my own humble opinion for mcnair tower though. i feel that 240 seems to be slightly better than 272. because 272 MIGHT eventually be blocked by future high rise residential right infront of it. 240 is also cheaper, though the reason might be because its surrounded by SA, which doesnt really bother me.

yea... 240 looks better and also cheaper, don know why 272 so ex

Four room.. total only 823.. but my que no 899.. I still got appointment date.. means what ah?

Maybe they issue u queue no first bcos 899 is not far off from 823.. So in the case of a few dropouts u stand a chance to choose a unit.. If all 823 units all taken before ur appt date, they will send update to ur hdb homepage asking u no need come for appt?

That's what I guess ba..
