The Greater Southern Waterfront and The Hillshore

Across Pasir Panjang Road from The Hillshore lies the western end of the Greater Southern Waterfront, the long stretch of coast that is being reshaped as Singapore’s port operations move to Tuas.

What the Greater Southern Waterfront Means for The Hillshore

The Greater Southern Waterfront is a corridor of about 30 kilometres along the southern coast, from Pasir Panjang to Marina East, planned over the coming decades for housing, parks, leisure and work. As the city terminals consolidate at Tuas, large areas of coastal land are freed: the corridor as a whole covers about 2,000 hectares, which published reports describe as six times the size of Marina Bay.

Pasir Panjang sits at the start of that corridor. The developer’s brochure describes the reclaimed waterfront port below the hillside as a district that will transform once more, and the Pasir Panjang Terminal is among the port areas planned to move to Tuas, by 2040 according to the developer’s map.

Pasir Panjang Power District Near The Hillshore

East along the shore, the Pasir Panjang Power District is planned as a waterfront lifestyle area that keeps the historic power-station buildings of the 1950s and 1960s. A continuous waterfront promenade is part of the plan, and the Pasir Panjang Linear Park is to link West Coast Park with Labrador Nature Reserve and on towards Kent Ridge Park, joining the coast and the hill parks.

New Neighbourhoods Along the Coast from The Hillshore

Further east, the former Keppel Club site and the Keppel Terminal land are being developed into a new estate, Berlayar, as an extension of Bukit Merah town; its first public housing project was launched in October 2025. The islands of Sentosa and Pulau Brani are planned for leisure and tourism, and the parks of the Southern Ridges continue to grow, with more park connectors and trails added along the way.

Living Beside a Changing Shore at The Hillshore

Plans of this scale unfold over many years, and the authorities may revise them; what a buyer can rely on today is the setting itself. From its raised site, The Hillshore already looks across the working port to the sea, with the Circle Line, the hill parks and the research campuses close by. The parks guide covers the green spaces, and the location page lists every distance.
