Finally the long waiting months are over, the
Pinnacle @ Duxton along Cantonment Road is now ready for keys collection for majority of the residents. The Pinnacle, consists of seven connected towers labelled
1A to 1G and each tower is
50 storeys in height. And guess what, the unit that we are going to view today is located at level 45.............
Here are some views which we can see from the inside of the apartment. Staying in the city area, especially near the CBD area is totally different from what we used to have. I guess the most happiest of all is my brother who has waited for the completion of this flat for more than 5 years...... :)
All seven buildings are linked at the 26th and 50th floors by Sky Bridges forming a jogging track and sky garden which is a feature that is unique for public housing in Singapore. These are some of the views at level 50 of the sky bridge. Residents will have the access card to the sky bridges area while public need to pay an admission fees in order to access these viewing area.
Other facilities include a food centre, daycare centre, underground carpark and other sports and recreational facilities in the upcoming months. These are some photo(s) of the underground carpark which is still under some mini construction.
Today we take our 2nd visit to the Marina Barrage from our way back from lunch in town. Since Grandma has not being to the Barrage before, we decided to make a trip over there so that she can take a look as the place as well as enjoying the beautiful scenery there. During our 1st visit last year, we didn't managed to get to this Water Park area where the kids and adults will be enjoying themselves with the cooling water......
Today's weather is much more better than the our revious trip. Although sun was shining bright and scotching, but thank God it is still a very windy day where you can see a lot of people flying all sort of kites at the roof top area. One that caught our attention is a "BIG BLUE SHARK"....but too big even though I zoom in to take the shot still can't take a close look of it.... 
From the roof top of the Barrage viewing deck area, you can take a better look at the almost completed "Marina Bay Sands - 滨海湾金沙综合娱乐城". This three cascading 55 storey hotel towers topped by an extraordinary sky park, ‘floating’ crystal pavilions, a lotus-inspired Museum, retail stores featuring cutting-edge labels and international luxury brands, trendy Celebrity Chef restaurants, endless of entertainment at the theaters and a Las Vegas-style casino is located along the Marina Bay waterfront. The expected completion date is roughly in the 2nd Quarter of 2010.
