      i was there mid 2004-2006 (approx) and i didnt open my windows that often because it was facing the main road and lots of trees/mosquito right in front of my unit.


      some of my friends living there installed mosquito nets (whatever you call it) on all windows. but i know the mgt is doing a good job keeping the pest problem under control.

      for me, i dont like to sit by the pool or go to the playground because of the pest. but lots of people love to have meals by the poolside. i like the laska and prawn noodles. i always have them when i visit my friends. :lol:

      well, during my stay there, there was a good no.of expats living there.
      haha, lots of mgs gals too.

      i am unsure of the price situation now but i know during my stay there , the price for both rental and sales just went south south south.

        This morning I saw a signage for one of the new development Cascadia show suite now available for viewing @ Old Holland Hill Rd? This development is already in the process of construction, exact location very near MGS too. But I find the building quite close to each other.


        Floridian has std and premium layout, think it is the dry and wet kitchen. No doubt the prices not low either, but new and not facing the main rd directly. Surrounding also not other high rise buildings. I am impressed, but cant afford 😢

          Think about the horrible traffic condition every morning - between 6.45-7.20am, residents will probably have a hard time getting in/out of their estates. Unless they broaden the road, otherwise it's a narrow 1-lane (2 way) road leading into/out of the estate.

            I don't think I can afford either of them...That's why need to look out for 2nd hand.... My hubby likes Maplewoods surroundings with lots of greenery... šŸ˜„

              That's was few years back, hopefully the conditions will be better. Which floor you put up? Thinking of getting 5th floor and above... :wink

                You in this situation right? Ya, traffic jams are a dread.

                At the moment I cant drive. If I get to live along that stretch of road, we most likely will take public tpt. Hubby works from home, only leave the house for meetings scheduled in the late mornings. So we wont be affected by morning jams. Lucky us šŸ˜‰
