Orchid Country Club, Science Park sites among plots rezoned for housing

[SINGAPORE] Three sprawling golf club sites and five Buona Vista business park plots are among parcels of land that have been rezoned for housing in the new Draft Master Plan 2025 (DMP2025). 

Unveiled on Wednesday (Jun 25), the DMP2025 charts Singapore’s development over the next 10 to 15 years, with a review done every five years. Key planning priorities outlined in the blueprint’s latest iteration include carving out new residential neighbourhoods to meet demand, as well as retooling the city-state’s regional hubs and industrial estates for an evolving economy. 

Analysts highlighted the rezoning of existing golf courses Orchid Country Club in Yishun and Warren Golf & Country Club in Choa Chu Kang, where leases end in 2030. Marina Bay Golf Course, which closed its doors in July 2024 after its lease expired, has also been earmarked for residential use.
