ONE OF A KIND

An icon in Ang Mo Kio, HDB block 259 stands tall at the junction of Ang Mo Kio Avenues 1 and 2. It’s a unique design, the one and only circular HDB block in Singapore is in the Kebun Baru constituency. Block 259 consists of 96 apartments, 4 units on every floor. The apartment owners moved in sometime in 1980 and have been enjoying the amenities that Bishan Park offers besides the unobstructive view and breezy environment.Residents of block 259 are closely-knit, greeting each other in lifts and void deck, inviting neighbours to their homes at ethnic celebrations and lending a helping hand when needed.



Circular block 259 is undergoing a main upgrading programme (MUP) and now boasts of a new feature to each apartment - bay windows from floor to ceiling giving the owners an unobstructive view and enhancing the overall landscape
