Parquet in Downtown Core homes

Downtown Core has high-rise condos around Marina Bay, Shenton Way and Tanjong Pagar, mostly completed from 2007 onwards. Downtown condos mostly have engineered timber in the bedrooms. A light sand and recoat, or a polish, protects the thin top layer. Heavy sanding isn't right for these floors.

Local tip: Most downtown condos need lift booking and works permits. Send us the management's rules and we'll provide the documents they ask for.

About Downtown Core

Sir Stamford Raffles landed by the Singapore River in 1819, and Raffles Place (first called Commercial Square) became the centre of business.

Land around Marina Bay was reclaimed from the 1970s, and Marina Bay Sands opened in 2010.

Homes in the business district are mostly high-rise condos from the 2000s and 2010s, such as The Sail @ Marina Bay, One Shenton and Marina One Residences.
