One Shenton Way, Residential skyscraper in Downtown Core, Singapore.
One Shenton Way is a residential skyscraper in Singapore's downtown core made up of two towers that each reach 50 stories. One facade features gold-colored panels while the other side is clad in blue glass, creating a distinctive two-tone appearance.
Construction started in 2008 under City Developments Limited with Hyundai Engineering as the main contractor and finished in 2011. This quick completion reflected the momentum of downtown Singapore's real estate development at that time.
The building honors Shenton Thomas, a former governor whose influence shaped Singapore's financial district. The twin towers with their contrasting facades have become part of how locals and visitors perceive this area today.
The complex contains 341 apartments, ground-floor retail shops, and a parking garage with 383 spaces. Visitors to the building should expect modern access systems designed to move people smoothly through this large residential community.
The building uses biometric access systems at every entry point instead of traditional key cards or physical keys. This technology represented an innovative security approach for large residential complexes when it was first installed.
