The only EC that was launched in the Jurong East area was Westmere, some 30 years ago, in 1996. “Since then, there [has] been no new EC developments introduced [in] Jurong East, making this one of the most anticipated EC sites in the western region,” adds Sandrasegeran.
The launch of the Jurong East Avenue 1 executive condominium (EC) site under the 2H2026 government land sales (GLS) programme is expected to draw very strong interest despite the recent change in EC policy, says Mark Yip, CEO of Huttons Asia.
The Jurong East Avenue 1 EC site, which is placed on the Confirmed List of the 2H2026 GLS programme, marks the “return of EC housing to Jurong East after a prolonged absence”, says Mohan Sandrasegeran, head of research and data analytics at Singapore Realtors Inc (SRI).
