    [SINGAPORE] A 14-storey office building at 158 Cecil Street, on a site with a balance land tenure of about 55 years, is understood to be quietly on the market at an indicative price of S$165 million to S$170 million.

    This is about 30 per cent lower than the S$240 million that an entity linked to the late Denis Jen – a Singapore citizen known for investing in shopping centres in Australia – paid for the Singapore office block a decade ago.

    The Business Times understands that Jen’s children are spearheading a potential sale of the asset via property brokers.
