Former Shuqun Secondary School site in Jurong East may yield up to 1,800 homes
On April 10, URA published a recommended modification to the Master Plan 2025, which includes elevating the plot proportion of the 3ha area at 450 Jurong East Street 21 from 3.5 to 5.0. The revision is planned to sustain future residence project and fulfill housing need.
A few of the nearest residential launches in the Jurong or west region include the 440-unit Sora on Yuan Ching Roadway, the 347-unit The Sen and the upcoming 863-unit Tengah Garden Residences, notes Sun. According to URA monthly developer sales information in February 2026, 90 of 347 units at The Sen and 209 of 440 units at Sora had been offered.
The former Shuqun Secondary School closed up in 2019 complying with its merger with Yuhua Senior high school. The place at 450 Jurong East Street 21 is located inside 400m of the upcoming Toh Guan MRT Station on the Jurong Region Line, and is near to amenities like Yuhua Village Market and Yuhua Grade School.
Many other college locations that have been moved or closed– and subsequently earmarked for residential property development– consist of the former Temasek Primary and Secondary Schools locations at the junction of Upper Changi Road and Bedok South Road; Bedok Town High School in Bedok North; Qiaonan Elementary School at Tampines Street 11; Angsana Primary School (Tampines Street 22); and Siglap High School in Pasir Ris.
URA has recommended increasing the progression intensity of a past school location in Jurong East, in a decision that could yield considerably a lot more homes.
“Private housing interest in the west will continue to raise as even more flats in Tengah will be obtaining MOP in the next four to 5 years, and numerous HDB owners will certainly be prepared to upgrade to an exclusive home,” she includes.
According to Christine Sun, chief researcher and strategist at Realion (OrangeTee & Tie), the area might possibly produce about 1,150 to 1,250 HDB flats, or around 1,750 to 1,800 private condominium units.
The place is close-by (around 600m) to the Jurong East MRT Interchange Terminal (East-West and North-South Lines), shopping malls, and the Jurong regional hub, that is very practical for future residents, Sun observes. It is also efficient for residents working in Tuas or Jurong business offices or industrial areas. She expects “demand to be strong” should HDB condos or private property be developed on the plot.
