“Capitalising on the gradient of the site topography, the orientation and heights of the blocks have been staggered to give the effect of “ridges”, transforming the project into a beautifully terraced landscape that maximises views of the waterway,” HDB said in its citation for Waterway Ridges. “The barrier-free design, combined with a network of footpaths and sheltered linkways, enables residents to enjoy leisurely strolls within the development safely, while plazas and viewing decks offer opportunities for social interaction among residents.”
