District 15 with areas like East Coast and Marine Parade, was earlier predominantly home to numerous nutmeg, pepper, coconut, cotton and gambier plantations. The growing Eurasian population in the district led to the rapid development of residential projects and amenities in the area. East Coast is most definitely a paradise for foodies offering exotic local specialities like chili crab, katong laksa and roti prata. The area’s very own beach also draws crowds and it is a popular destination for water sports and recreation. Residential properties in Marine Parade are preferred because of their nearness to the coastline, scenic location, proximity to the Central Business District and easy access to all conveniences and recreation options including parks, libraries, healthcare centres. Property buyers, especially families are attracted by the wide range of reputable schools in the district. A well connected bus service system is available to residents to commute to and fro from the Central Business District. In recent years, District 15 has emerged among the top choices for property buyers as it offers a wide array of residential options ranging from HDB apartments to private residences. New residential launches and upcoming projects that are set to offer several leisure amenities and conveniences are also attracting investors.
