    A LAND parcel bounded by Media Circle and one-north Avenue, currently zoned for business-park use, is being proposed for a high-density residential development. Elsewhere, land use in five other sites already earmarked for residential use will be intensified for this purpose. 

    On Friday (Oct 6), the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) said that the residential development in Media Circle will support the demand for housing in one-north and enhance the district as a vibrant, mixed-use business park.

    More information on the development plans for the site will be announced when ready, said URA.
