Jurong Lake District (JLD) is a district of Singapore, planned as part of Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA)’s decentralisation efforts to bring more quality jobs, amenities, and recreational options closer to homes. The plans for the district have continued to evolve since the blueprint was first unveiled in the URA Master Plan 2008.[1] It consists of three precincts, namely Jurong Gateway, Lakeside and Lakeside Gateway. It is 472 hectares (4,720,000 m2) in size and served by two major expressways and three MRT stations. It is planned to be Singapore's next central business district.[2][3] In June 2023, a white site 6.5 hectares (ha) in size was released for sale to kick-start development of the largest commercial district outside Singapore’s city centre.[4]
Spread over 290 hectares (2,900,000 m2), residents and visitors can look forward to new parks, improved promenades, more water activities and numerous attractions blended in with the scenic lakeside setting.[5]
Located around the Jurong East MRT station, the 70 hectares (700,000 m2) Jurong Gateway will be developed into a vibrant commercial hub; the biggest outside the Central Business District.[5]
Lakeside Gateway is a 112 hectares (1,120,000 m2) mixed-use business precinct and home to the future terminus of the Kuala Lumpur–Singapore high-speed rail.
On 11 July 2016, Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) announced the Request For Proposal (RFP) for Lakeside Gateway.[2][3]
