Want to apply for the Tanjong Rhu Riverfront I & II Kallang/Whampoa HDB BTO June 2024 project? Like Kit Chan’s “Home”, your future home could be where the river always flows.

Instead of the Singapore River, however, with the Tanjong Rhu Riverfront I & II Kallang/Whampoa HDB BTO June 2024 project, you’ll have the Geylang River. The Tanjong Rhu Riverfront I & II Kallang/Whampoa HDB BTO June 2024 launch offers a chance for many to live in Tanjong Rhu with a total of 2,063 2-room Flexi, 3-room, and 4-room BTO flats.

The Tanjong Rhu Riverfront I & II Kallang/Whampoa HDB BTO June 2024 flats are spread across two blocks: about 1,400 BTO flats in the more southern plot, while the smaller plot comprises about 620 BTO flats. Being launched in such an attractive location also means that the Riverfront I & II Kallang/Whampoa HDB BTO June 2024 project will likely fall under the Prime Location Public Housing Model (PLH).
