CanningHill Piers is a new launch condo that marks the latest development to be released by venture developers, City Developments Limited (CDL), CapitaLand and Ascott Reit. This comes after the successful launch of another collaboration between CDL and CapitaLand — the mixed-use development Sengkang Grand Residences in 2019.
In anticipation of the new launch project, we’ve summarised three things to know about the latest development in town.
1. Canning Hill Piers - The new launch condo sitting on the former site of Liang Court
CanningHill Piers will be constructed on the former site of a mixed-use development that comprised Liang Court, Novotel, and an apartment complex. The development first opened in 1984, with the mall being mostly known for its Japanese restaurants and shops. The development included the Daimaru department store, which had been the anchor tenant of Liang Court during the period from 1983 to 2003. The space was then taken over by Meidi-Ya supermarket, which became Liang Court’s anchor tenant for 17 years until its closure last year.
On top of that, the mall was home to the first Singapore outlets of Books Kinokuniya and Saizeriya. However, the number of customers in the mall reduced over the last few years and shops began closing down, including Kinokuniya in April 2019. The development closed down for good in March 2020 for renovation after its en bloc in 2019.

2. CanningHill Piers is not the typical integrated new launch project
CanningHill Piers is is a 99-year leasehold mixed-use development which is jointly developed by CDL, CapitaLand and Ascott Reit. But just like its predecessor, it’s not just the usual residential-plus-mall kind of integrated project.
The new launch condo will comprise two residential blocks, a commercial development called CanningHill Square, a hotel and a serviced residence with a hotel license. According to the URA master plan, CanningHill Piers will come with 696 residential units, 477 hotel rooms and 192 serviced apartments.

3. CanningHill Piers is the new launch condo just a stone’s throw away from amenities, including the MRT
There is another highlight of CanningHill Piers is that it has a direct link to Fort Canning MRT — a definite plus point if you don’t use your vehicle. This is not the only MRT that is within walking distance. The development is nearby Clarke Quay MRT station just in a 7-minute walk so that you can access easily to both Downtown Line and North-East Line.
As for those who drive, the good news is that the Central Expressway (CTE) will just be a few minutes drive. Because of its prime location in the heart of Clarke Quay, there is a myriad of amenities surrounding the development in a short walk. There is a wide array of dining options along the river and Robertson Quay, where you can spend your time with family and friends. The new launch project is also nearby Clarke Quay Central in a 7-minute walk.
