I. Area Overview

Marina Bay and Singapore's Central Business District (CBD) are the most international areas on the island. This zone is a hub for finance, technology, and multinational corporate headquarters, making it one of the most popular living circles for expatriate professionals.
For buyers looking to invest in Singapore property, condos in the CBD are consistently among the most watched segments in the Core Central Region (CCR), prized for their scarcity, strong rental demand, and superior views.
Marina Bay is famous for its iconic landmarks – such as Marina Bay Sands, Marina Bay Financial Centre, Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay, and Gardens by the Bay – representing Singapore's "calling card to the world."
