Big changes are on the way for Dover Drive. The former ITE headquarters at 10 Dover Drive and the ITE Dover campus at 20 Dover Drive are set to be demolished. Approval from the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) was granted on August 14, 2025, and demolition is planned to begin in the first half of 2026.
The upcoming plans not only promise fresh housing options but also bring along a whole set of opportunities for homebuyers and families.

What will happen to the site?
Most of the land, which covers 5.9 hectares, will be cleared for housing. Out of this, about 3.8 hectares has already been earmarked for new flats. For now, the site is managed by the Singapore Land Authority (SLA) and is still used by the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT). Once SIT fully moves out, the land will be handed over to the Housing Board (HDB) for redevelopment.
Where does this fit in the URA Draft Master Plan 2025?
The redevelopment of the Dover Drive site is not happening in isolation. It is actually part of the Draft Master Plan 2025, which outlines how Singapore’s land will be used over the next 10 to 15 years. This plan provides a guide for where housing, transport, and amenities will be placed across the country.
In this case, the Dover Drive site will form part of the new Dover-Medway neighbourhood. You’ll find this area sitting between Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) and one-north. With its central spot and strong connections to both education and business hubs, this location has the potential to become a lively and attractive place to live.
How many homes will be built on the Dover site?
The 3.8-hectare housing plot is expected to yield between 1,300 and 1,900 flats. If private homes are considered, the same space could support as many as 1,900 condominium units.
This development is only part of the first phase of the Dover-Medway neighbourhood. Once the entire project is completed, the area could eventually hold about 6,000 homes, made up of both public and private housing.
A nearby site at Dover Road, measuring 1.35 hectares, is also expected to be released for sale in November 2025. That plot alone can accommodate around 625 private homes, along with commercial space for shops or other services. Clearly, this neighbourhood is shaping up to be a major hub for future housing.

Will more primary schools be needed?
Analysts have noted that while there are several secondary and tertiary institutions nearby, there aren’t many primary schools serving the area. This could mean more may eventually need to be built.
Still, the site does have one strong draw for young families: it sits within 1km of Fairfield Methodist School (Primary), a school that is highly popular with parents. That proximity could make the new flats especially appealing.
What types of flats could you expect?
Analysts believe the new Dover flats could fall under the Prime classification. This is because the site sits just about 1km from one-north MRT station and falls within Queenstown, an area already known for its strong housing demand.
In fact, between January and August 2025, more than 110 flats in Queenstown were sold for S$1 million or more. That tells you there is significant demand in this area. With such strong interest in nearby homes, it is likely that the upcoming Dover flats will also see heavy competition.
Wrapping up
The Dover Drive HDB plans are set to transform an old campus into a thriving residential area. With over 1,300 flats expected in the first phase alone, plus more to come in nearby plots, the Dover-Medway neighbourhood is going to be an exciting new chapter for housing in Singapore.
If you’re looking for a home near Queenstown, one-north, or Fairfield Methodist School (Primary), this development could be worth watching closely. From location to potential flat types, every detail suggests demand will be high – and you’ll want to be ready when applications open.

SINGAPORE, 18 November 2025 – Qingjian Realty, Forsea Holdings, ZACD Group and Jianan Capital are set to preview the highly anticipated Coastal Cabana Executive Condominium (EC) from Saturday, 6 December 2025. Located along Jalan Loyang Besar in Pasir Ris, the 748-unit coastal development enjoys a coveted position within walking distance to Pasir MRT and next to Downtown East, with select units offering panoramic sea views. Designed as a serene retreat within a vibrant neighbourhood, Coastal Cabana offers families the quiet luxury of generous living spaces, thoughtfully curated facilities, and seamless access to the estate’s recreational offerings.
Mr Du Dexiang, Managing Director of Qingjian Realty said, “Coastal Cabana is a much-needed addition for upgraders and aspiring homeowners who appreciate the vibrancy and convenience of this well-developed mature estate. At Qingjian, our focus has always been on building quality homes with enduring appeal that meet the needs of buyers. That commitment is reflected in what we have created at Coastal Cabana. With the uncertain future supply of EC developments in Pasir Ris over the next few years, this project is well-positioned to capture strong pent-up demand in the area.”
Mr Wang Xin, Director at Forsea Holdings added, “Coastal Cabana reflects our shared vision with Qingjian Realty of creating homes that combine thoughtful design with enduring quality.

A Well-Connected Coastal Home in the Heart of Pasir Ris
Located in one of Singapore’s most family-friendly neighbourhoods, Coastal Cabana offers residents the rare combination of coastal tranquillity and urban convenience. The neighbourhood’s abundant green spaces and family-friendly amenities have made it one of the East’s most desirable places to call home.
Situated next to Downtown East and just minutes from Pasir Ris Park and Pasir Ris MRT, the development enjoys close proximity to a full suite of shopping, dining, and recreational options.
In the coming years, the existing Pasir Ris MRT station will serve as an interchange connecting the existing East West Line (EWL) and the upcoming Cross Island Line (CRL) – offering residents island-wide connectivity and shorter travel times to key destinations and employment hubs.
Residents will also benefit from excellent road connectivity, with the Tampines Expressway (TPE) and Pan Island Expressway (PIE) offering easy access to the rest of the island.
An Evolving Neighbourhood That Offers Something for Everyone
As part of the ongoing rejuvenation of Pasir Ris, the Urban Redevelopment Authority’s (URA) Draft Master Plan 2025 will introduce new residential, commercial, and recreationalenhancements to Pasir Ris, further strengthening the estate’s appeal and bringing greater convenience, vibrancy, and long-term value to the neighbourhood.
Set within this evolving and self-contained estate, residents will already enjoy a wealth of amenities – from seaside leisure and nature parks, to lifestyle, shopping, dining, entertainment options, as well as reputable schools.
For those with school-going children, a strong network of educational institutions can be found nearby, including Casuarina Primary School and Pasir Ris Primary School within 1km of the development. Other nearby institutions include Elias Park Primary School, Hai Sing Catholic School, Meridian Primary School, Meridian Secondary School, Singapore Institute of Technology, and the Singapore University of Technology and Design.
Homes Designed for Every Generation
Set against the Pasir Ris coastline, Coastal Cabana is envisioned as a modern coastal sanctuary where families can enjoy generous spaces, sea views, and seamless connectivity.
Thoughtfully conceived as a rare coastal sanctuary with stunning sea views, Coastal Cabana is designed for comfort, connection, and convenience. The development pairs functional layouts with luxury resort-inspired facilities – offering residents the tranquillity of coastal living and the energy of a vibrant, well-established community.
The mix of three- to five-bedroom units cater to the evolving needs of families at every stage of life – from young couples starting out to multi-generational households seeking space, comfort and togetherness. All unit types are north-south facing and feature naturally ventilated kitchens and bathrooms, with selected layouts offering flexible spaces for use such as study or flexi areas that can be adapted to suit different lifestyle needs.
Homeowners can also expect quality interior finishes with kitchen appliances from Bosch and bathroom fittings from Hansgrohe.
A Space for Connection, Framed by Nature
Beyond their homes, residents can also look forward to over 65 family-oriented amenities, including a two-storey clubhouse, four swimming pools, and a sky terrace that offers sweeping sea views.
Coastal Cabana’s expansive clubhouse is envisioned as the heart of the development’s activity, providing residents with a multitude of options for connection, play, and relaxation.
The two-storey clubhouse is one of the most striking features of the development. Designed as an expansive social and recreational zone, it offers spaces for every member of the family – including four function rooms, a karaoke room, a music room, kids club, yoga studio, and a fully equipped gym. Beyond the clubhouse are other facilities including a tennis court, BBQ pavilions, outdoor fitness park, and adventure park for children.
Coastal Cabana’s collection of swimming pools are thoughtfully designed to suit different lifestyles, from family recreation to wellness and lap swimming.
The development’s collection of four swimming pools has been thoughtfully curated to cater to different lifestyles and generations – from the 50-metre Grand Pool and Lifestyle pool for serious swimmers, to the Family Pool designed for parents and young children, and the Wellness pool with spa facilities and aqua gym for leisure and relaxation. This deliberate separation of spaces allows residents to enjoy both tranquillity and connection, echoing the development’s vision of harmonious living.
Complementing the range of facilities, the development is also distinguished by its landscaping and architectural concept, which draws inspiration from tranquil European gardens – reflected in its symmetry, manicured hedgerows, and elegant vertical features that frame the facades.
The Grand Boulevard forms the centrepiece of Coastal Cabana’s arrival experience, leading residents and guests through a resort-inspired sequence from the drop-off area to the main lobby.
The experience begins with each arrival home. The Grand Boulevard forms the heart of Coastal Cabana’s arrival experience – framing a resort-inspired flow that begins at the Grand Boulevard Lobby – an elegant drop-off area – and the adjacent Boulevard Lounge which serves as a grand welcome for guest entering the development. Upon entering the grounds, residents are greeted by a long reflective water corridor that creates a serene visual transition from the lively surroundings into a calm, contemplative space within the development.
The long reflective water corridor lined with manicured hedgerows creates a serene visual transition from the development’s lively surroundings into its calm, landscaped interior.
The common areas are thoughtfully arranged around lush, manicured courtyards framed by tall landscaped walls and hedgerows, evoking a sense of peace, privacy, and timeless elegance. Expansive green lawns and open play areas create welcoming spaces for children to play and for families to gather, encouraging outdoor recreation and community connection. Together, these elements create an environment that feels both tranquil and alive – a crafted sanctuary that changes in mood and scenery as one moves through it.
