Punggol residents now have a hip new hangout with the completion of Oasis Terraces, the first of six new-generation HDB Neighbourhood Centres (NCs). Offering something for everyone in the family, it features an array of shops, family-friendly dining options that cater to all budgets, a supermarket with extended opening hours, a 24-hour fitness centre, and educational and enrichment centres to serve Punggol’s young population. A polyclinic, one of Singapore’s largest, is also housed within the development, offering residents access to a wide range of affordable healthcare services.

Fronting the scenic Punggol Waterway, Oasis Terraces is integrated seamlessly with the surrounding developments.

Oasis Terraces is also home to HDB’s first ever Entrepreneur Cluster, where online-to-offline businesses and new businesses offering niche products can try out their ideas and learn to run a retail store at a lower fit-out cost and rent. Besides encouraging innovation and entrepreneurship in the heartlands, it also provides residents with more retail options.

For residents who prefer shopping online, they can now enjoy an even better experience at the Experiential Collection Lobby, which includes parcel lockers, charging points to test newly-purchased electronic goods, and even tablets to shop online at e-marketplaces.

Located along Punggol’s famous waterway and set amidst lushly landscaped, multi-coloured terraces, Oasis Terraces is a great place to hang out with friends and fellow residents. The sheltered community plaza is often abuzz with events and festive celebrations, while various “play and explore” elements such as a water park and playgrounds offer opportunities for family fun and leisure. Residents of all ages can relax in the ample rest spaces or keep fit at the well-equipped fitness corner overlooking the scenic waterway. At the rooftop community garden, gardening enthusiasts can also grow fruits, herbs, flowers, and other plants as part of the National Parks Board’s Community in Bloom programme.

The sheltered Community Plaza in the heart of the NC is a venue for weekly events and activities.

A range of facilities is provided for residents to lead a healthy and fun lifestyle.

And in the next three years, five more NCs will be completed in Hougang, Sengkang, Punggol, and Sembawang – joining Punggol as a new-generation NC. These NCs will play an integral part in creating a comprehensive and quality living environment for residents and supporting the growth of vibrant communities.
