    [SINGAPORE] A site along Cross Street in the Central Business District has been earmarked for redevelopment for residential use, according to the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA).

    The land parcel is being proposed for residential with commercial at first storey use, with a gross plot ratio of 6.3. The empty field located at Telok Ayer MRT station previously housed the Market Street Interim Hawker Centre. 

    “The proposed amendments are to facilitate a future residential development, as part of plans to introduce more accommodation options near key amenities and transport nodes in the Central Business District (CBD),” URA said on Apr 24.
