Executive Summary:
The Kallang Distripark site, spanning 13 hectares, is being considered for transformation into a major private housing precinct. If proposals under the Urban Redevelopment Authority’s (URA) Master Plan, amendment on Aug 14 2026, proceed, the site could yield 2,250–2,550 private homes, supported by a neighbourhood park, new roads, and commercial spaces. Lee Rubber Company-linked entities privately own Kallang Distripark. While parts of the site are freehold, other sections hold a 99-year lease that ends in 2067.

Key Highlights

    • 2.4ha plot (with commercial space): ~600–800 units
  • Combined potential: 2,250–2,550 homes
• Land Tenure:
  • Mix of freehold and 99-year leasehold (till 2067).

Scale Illustration

To visualize the size:

• 13 hectares = 130,000 square metres.
• A standard football field is about 7,140 square metres.
• This means Kallang Distripark is roughly equivalent to 18 football fields in land area.

• Expect strong MRT connectivity and central positioning to drive demand.
• Potential mixed-use vibrancy with housing, retail, and park integration.
