Potential site (East)

Post by Sivakis »

I don't live in Tampines but visit it regularly for work.

I know the previous site was next to the mosque but that's since been fenced up for redevelopment (raises fists!!).

Came across this other place, just across the road.

This one is the other opposite side of Tampines Concourse:

If confused where, then consider that Tampines Concourse is in between the mosque and this field in the photo.
Seen some foreign workers play cricket there over the weekends.

Maybe another potential for East-siders.

Only problem is, no toilets nearby but if rain should be ok to run over to the Concourse to shelter.

Here's another panoramic view of the spot, taken from Tampines Concourse:

Quite near actually. Just realised that the trees in the distant is actually Sunplaza Park and behind the construction on the left is the Bike Park.

Don't think this field will last long seeing the rate of development around. ...
