It represents the best of cosmopolitan living with all the TOP RIGHT privileged choices at its doorstep. ROBERTSON QUAY BOTTOM MARTIN MODERN SITE COSMOPOLITAN DISTRICT 9 The insightful and well-travelled among us know the value of having choices and having quick access to them. Time is precious, that is why very few locations in Singapore are as sought after as District 9. This district is bounded by Orchard Road, River Valley, and Robertson Quay. The Orchard Road area is the established shopping and lifestyle heart of Singapore, while the Robertson Quay area is packed with dining, theatre and gallery options. District 9 is also minutes away from the Central Business District (CBD), financial district and the glittering pleasures of Marina Bay. Situated in District 9, Martin Modern residents will be presented with a lifestyle that will please both the discerning sophisticate and the smart investor. LIVING AND BREATHING REAL LUXURY Real luxury is having the indulgence of natural space in land-scarce Singapore. Martin Modern has generously utilized 80% of its land area to be developed and artfully designed into a unique botanical garden and arboretum of native flora. More than 200 species of plants and 50 species of trees will form a lovely, enchanting, natural park that will embrace the two-towered development. Residents and their loved ones will be able to spend healthy quality time together strolling, jogging and doing yoga - without crowds - within their haven in the prime district. And when Martin Modern owners look out their windows each day, they will be greeted by a naturally lush and verdant vista that few developments can afford. 4 5 C AT C H T H E Two factors make Martin Modern a not-to-be- missed opportunity: the up-coming revitalisation REVITALISATION EARLY of the area, and the rare opportunity of a large plot in an established enclave.

Martin Modern has an unparalleled location, being close to the most important and exciting districts in Singapore, such as Orchard Road, the Civic District, the Central Business District (CBD) and Marina Bay. Such proximity brings with it convenience, time-saving, and an assurance that your property will keep its value well. ORCHARD ROAD TO SHOP AND SUP Known the world over as one of the great, world-class shopping streets to visit, Orchard Road is synonymous with the best shopping, dining, and leisure Singapore has to offer.

  • Clifford Pier - a Gateway to New Life
    Page 1 CLIFFORD PIER - A GATEWAY TO NEW LIFE Taken from an article written by Kelvin Ang for ‘Skyline’, URA’s corporate magazine Before the age of affordable mass air travel, travellers to Singapore would have arrived by sea, on a luxury steamer if one was fortunate and wealthy enough. The majority of the rest – men and women in search of their fortunes would have entered the Singapore harbour in more humble vessels. Sometime in the late 1930s…every seafarer would see, as the ships drew closer to the Lion City, the skyline would gradually rise up from the watery horizon. Perhaps initially as a hazy mirage before eventually becoming clearer, with the grand, grey landmarks lining up along the various quays, becoming more solid in the brilliant tropical sun that shines down over the Equator. Scanning hopefully from the deck of the ship, a traveller would have seen his future anchored on one end by the Fullerton Building, possibly the grandest post office in the Far East. If the traveller had arrived on a fast steamer in the late 1950s, his attention would also be caught by the skyscraping Art-Deco style Asia Insurance Building that terminated the western end of the vista with its shiny silver crown. Or perhaps he is arriving at dusk, and as the flaming sunsets that this island is known for turns into velvety night, his eyes would be drawn ahead to a set of red lights marking the location of Singapore’s Clifford Pier. This is where all the smaller lighter boats seem to gather around, discharging passengers and their luggage that they have picked up from the larger ships.

  • NSS Bird Group Report-Oct 2015
    NSS Bird Group Report-Oct 2015 October normally marks the peak passerine migration period for Singapore. Unfortunately it was also the peak time for peatland forest fires in Indonesia resulting in prolonged haze in the region. This is not a rant about our own inconvenience, but before we proceed further, spare a thought for the lost habitat for these migrants that have flown thousands of kilometres to find their wintering ground destroyed. The globally threatened Brown-chested Jungle Flycatcher at Bidadari on 3 October The list of migrants that came to our shore this month is a long one. Among the notable ones are the ever popular Black-backed Kingfisher that landed at Bidadari on 6 October. Bidadari, which is widely considered as the best place in Singapore to see migrant forest birds also played host to numerous Brown-chested Jungle Flycatchers. This globally threatened species made its first appearance on 3 October and a few seemed to have made it their wintering ground. The Siberian Blue Robin, another attractive species that occupy the same bushes and ground as the jungle flycatchers also made its first appearance on 5 October. 1 Ferruginous Flycatcher at Bidadari Other notable sightings at Bidadari include the Asian Paradise Flyacatchers that made their first appearance on 2 October, the attractive Ferruginous Flycatcher on 28 October. The short range migrant from Malaysia, the Malaysian Hawk-Cuckoo made an appearance at Bidadari on 15 October. It’s cousin the similar looking Hodgson’s Hawk-Cuckoo came from further north and consequently made its first appearance on 18 October.
