About The Riverwalk
The Riverwalk is a strata-titled mixed-use development at 20 Upper Circular Road, Singapore 058416, on the south bank of the Singapore River in District 1. It combines shops and restaurants at the lower levels, strata offices, and a residential component known as Riverwalk Apartments. The land is held on a 99-year lease from 15 December 1980. Property portals list Premier Realty Pte Ltd as the developer of the apartments. They differ on the completion date, with EdgeProp giving 1985 and others 1990.
The development sits between Boat Quay and Clarke Quay, a few minutes from the Raffles Place office district. Its offices are mostly small suites used by professional firms, agencies and clinics, while the ground level faces the river promenade with food and drink outlets. The building is standing and fully in use, and the commercial portion is listed as holding a BCA Green Mark certification from 2019. No collective sale or redevelopment plan was found.
Interesting facts
The lease dates from 1980, so the project dates from the years of the Singapore River clean-up, which ran from 1977 to 1987.
EdgeProp records a site of roughly 7,700 sq m and a gross floor area of about 37,700 sq m for the commercial listing.
It stands beside the conserved shophouses of Boat Quay, so low-rise heritage streets begin almost at its door.
