City Developments Limited (CDL) has been crowned the Top Developer at the EdgeProp Singapore Excellence Awards 2022. This is its sixth consecutive win, and it is the only developer to have achieved such a streak since the Awards’ commencement in 2017.
CDL Group General Manager Mr Chia Ngiang Hong, who represented the company at the awards ceremony on 21 October at JW Marriott Hotel Singapore South Beach, thanked valued partners, collaborators, stakeholders and colleagues for their unwavering support and journeying with CDL through its efforts to shape Singapore’s landscape.
He attributed its success of CDL’s residential launches this year to the company’s keen perception of what buyers want and the careful planning to stay atop the evolving needs and aspirations of home buyers. He further highlighted that CDL has been selective in its land acquisitions, ensuring a good mix across various segments. He said, “We see great potential in our sites, which are spread out over various good locations from the east to the central to the west.”
Designed by Danish architecture firm Bjarke Ingels Group, CanningHill Piers will be the tallest residential development along the Singapore River. The landmark residence is part of an integrated development that also includes a commercial component with F&B and retail outlets named CanningHill Square, a hotel operated under the Moxy brand by Marriott International and a serviced residence with a hotel licence operated under the Somerset brand.
In addition, Mr Chia shared that a greater emphasis on wellness has emerged: “Since the onset of the pandemic, people have looked for more comfort and ease in their lives and placed a greater focus on things that matter most to them.”
With the key trends of wellness and sustainability expected to evolve going forward, Mr Chia shared that CDL continues to push for green designs as well as efficient construction methods and places a lot of emphasis on the health performance of its buildings, and conceptualises them with factors such as acoustic comfort, natural ventilation, thermal comfort and biophilic design in mind.
Irwell Hill Residences is envisioned by world-renowned architect MVRDV and features two iconic 36-storey towers with a stunning champagne gold pixel-patterned facade.
CDL also received six other awards at the ceremony, including the Top Development award for CanningHill Piers, which also bagged four other awards. Irwell Hill Residences received the Sustainability Excellence award.
