A downtown built on reclaimed land
Almost all of the ground around Marina Bay was sea until the 1970s. It was reclaimed in stages over the following decades, and planned as an extension of the Central Business District, so the district is overwhelmingly offices: most of the buildings listed below are strata or single-owner office towers in District 1.
The homes are few and tall. The Sail, Marina Bay Residences and Marina Bay Suites stand on the bay itself; Marina One Residences is the residential part of the Marina One development; and One Shenton and The Clift sit on the Shenton Way side. Each has its own management corporation, often with an office in the building's lobby or carpark level.
New launches around Marina Bay
Marina Bay has had more new condominium launches since 2025 than at any point since the first towers were built:
- W Residences Marina View — IOI Properties Group, 683 units on a 99-year lease on Marina View, launched in October 2025.
- One Marina Gardens — Kingsford Group, 937 units on Marina Gardens Lane in Marina South, launched in April 2025, just outside the ring.
- Newport Residences — City Developments Limited, 246 freehold units in the Newport Plaza development on Anson Road, launched in January 2026, at the Tanjong Pagar edge.
- Skywaters Residences — part of The Skywaters at 8 Shenton Way, the former AXA Tower site, developed by a Perennial Holdings-led consortium, with completion reported for 2028.
- Marina Gardens Lane land sale site — a second residential site beside One Marina Gardens is on URA's Confirmed List for the second half of 2026.
These projects join the directory once their management corporations are registered, usually after completion.
Getting around
The ring is covered by more MRT stations than anywhere else in Singapore: Marina Bay (an interchange for three lines), Downtown, Bayfront, Raffles Place, Shenton Way and Telok Ayer. Each station's page lists the developments within a ten-minute walk of it.
Who manages the buildings here
The office towers are mostly run by the large firms — CBRE, Savills Property Management and JLL — or by the landlord's own building management. The rest of the downtown is on the District 1 page, and public carparks with live lots are on the carparks page.
