Setting a new benchmark for Singapore’s first "Forest Town," Parc Glen @ Tengah has been awarded the prestigious Certificate of Merit in the Completed Park Category at the HDB Landscape Award 2026.
Redefining Urban Living Within a Forest
Parc Glen @ Tengah exemplifies a successful marriage between high-density public housing and biophilic design. In alignment with Tengah's overarching vision as a green, car-free urban core, the development moves away from traditional concrete boundaries. Instead, it embeds residential blocks directly into the surrounding provincial greenery, creating a fluid, continuous transition from home to nature.
Key Landscape Highlights:
- Rich Biodiversity Corridors: Seamlessly connects to Tengah's larger forest corridor, preserving local migratory pathways and introducing native flora that enriches local ecosystems.
- Thematic Sky and Roof Gardens: Transforms multi-storey car parks and residential rooftops into lush, multi-tiered green oases that mitigate the urban heat island effect.
- Active Community Integration: Blends multi-generational fitness stations, playgrounds, and community gathering plazas naturally into the eco-friendly topography.
- Pedestrian-Centric Infrastructure: Connects residents directly to dedicated walking and cycling networks, fostering a healthier, low-carbon footprint lifestyle.
By successfully transforming standard public fields into a thriving ecological park, Parc Glen @ Tengah proves that modern urban functionality and deep environmental preservation can coexist seamlessly.
