Plans for new green resort in Singapore uncovered
Sands has announced its plan to build a $8bn ultra-luxurious resort in Singapore, with views across Marina Bay, inspired by the island’s greenery and sustainable approach.
Designed by Safdie Architects and led by Marina Bay Sand’s designers Moshe Safdie, the new resort features a 570-suite hotel tower capped with rooftop and dining experiences, retail boutiques, gaming, meeting space, spa and wellness amenities and a 76,000 square-foot Skyloop.
Rotated at a 45-degree angle to frame views of Marina Bay and the Singapore Straight, the 55-story hotel tower will feature biophilic designs integrated throughout the building alongside green amenities.
The building’s architecture and operations will sit in line with Sands ECO360 global sustainability program.
The use of low-carb concrete and recycled steel will be practiced white a construction waste management plan will be set in place whereby at least 75% of construction waste will be diverted to reduce landfill disposal.
Patrick Dumont, Sands president and chief operating officer, comments:
“Our new development will raise the bar and redefine the ultra-luxury hospitality realm on a global scale, fuelling further growth of high-value tourism.”
The new venue will also be integrated with new and existing developments within the Marina Bay precinct to enable pedestrian connectivity. This includes access to Bayfront metro (MRT) station and links between Marina Bay and Gardens by the Bay.
Construction is expected to finish in 2030.
