This is the second BTO launch for 2014, bringing the total number of flats offered for sale this year to 6,636.

HDB will set aside up to 15% of the Studio Apartments, 2-room and 3-room flats in a BTO project (subject to a minimum of 20 units each) for parents applying under MGPS. The same number of 2-room and bigger flats will be set aside in the same BTO project for their married children. (MGPS). There will be flats set aside in EastCrown @ Canberra, EastLace @ Canberra and Fern Grove @ Yishun for this purpose.
