The Potter’s Garden opens at Jurong Innovation District

The park rejuvenation integrates heritage, biodiversity, community amenities.

JTC has opened The Potter’s Garden, a five‑hectare park in Jurong Innovation District (JID).

The project refreshes the former Jurong Eco‑Garden to serve workers, residents, and visitors, according to its announcement.

The park was renamed to honour Jurong’s pottery legacy and its connection to Singapore’s last two dragon kilns at Thow Kwang Pottery Jungle and Jalan Bahar Clay Studios. JTC said it worked with both studios, community potters, and artists to showcase ceramic works throughout the park.

The rejuvenation was carried out with SJ Group and landscape architect Henning Larsen. JTC stated that nature‑based solutions were incorporated to manage rainwater, with an eco‑pond designed to store stormwater. About 65% of stormwater is filtered and reused for watering plants.

Community feedback from surveys in 2021 shaped the new design. Additions include two playgrounds, a fitness corner, refurbished footpaths, and a pavilion popular with birdwatchers.

Minister Desmond Lee said: “The Potter’s Garden celebrates the area’s rich pottery legacy, with Singapore’s last two dragon kilns found here and their work featured in the park. Residents can enjoy lush greenery, rich biodiversity, and community amenities for all generations, from children’s play zones to elder‑friendly fitness corners.”

Nelson Liew, Group Director, New Estates, JTC, added: “Renaming this park pays tribute to the pioneers of Singapore’s pottery and ceramics craft who shaped this area’s identity.”

The park is accessible via the pedestrian overhead bridge near Block 864A Jurong West Street 81, which opened in February 2025.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
