HDB completes final two pandemic-delayed projects

It is also on track to complete about 17,000 flats across 27 projects this year.

National Development Minister Desmond Lee has announced the completion of the final two pandemic-delayed projects by the Housing & Development Board (HDB).

These projects, Punggol Point Cove (Phase 2) and Kempas Residences, were impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic but are now ready for homeowners.

Since November 2024, keys have been progressively handed over to homeowners. With the completion of these two projects, HDB has finished all 92 pandemic-delayed housing projects, delivering over 75,800 flats over the past five years.

Punggol Point Cove (Phase 2), consisting of 1,179 units, had five blocks completed by December 2024, with the final block finished earlier this month after a 12-month delay. As of 15 January 2025, 657 households (59% of booked units) have received keys. The project faced delays due to pandemic disruptions and the replacement of the original contractor.

Meanwhile, Kempas Residences, with 583 units, completed its final block in mid-January 2025, six months later than planned. As of 15 January 2025, 37 households (7% of booked units) have collected keys, with the rest to follow soon.

In 2024, HDB completed 22 projects, including four without delays, namely Alkaff Breeze, Champions Bliss, Parc Glen @ Tengah, and Grove Spring @ Yishun. Two of these were shorter waiting time projects, with key collection in under three years.

Looking ahead, HDB is on track to complete about 17,000 flats across 27 projects in 2025. With the completion of all pandemic-delayed projects, there are currently no delayed projects among those under construction.

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.
