Higher height limits a game changer for redevelopment potential in areas around Singapore airports: analysts

[SINGAPORE] Relaxed height restrictions near airports and airbases could result in huge increases in built-up floor area allowances, a move lauded by property market observers for its potential to unlock redevelopment opportunities.

The government is reviewing Singapore’s height limits for buildings near airports.

Residential buildings could be built up to 15 storeys taller, and commercial and industrial buildings could be built up to nine storeys taller.
