Re: JB CBD Area Properties (Sky88, TwinGalaxy, Summerplace, Skysuite, Paragon etc)
Hi zoros, am new here, so each of my posts, will take awhile before it gets visible, my guess is the south east of Paragon is likely to be blocked partially by Lido Beach developments, but paragon being on higher ground, those on the higher floor should be less affected. To the south it should be ok. From what I gather, the Royalty has taken the two penthouses available in the development.
So butadesu, where exactly is Macdonald going to be located? ..on the vacant land to the right or below Paragon?

The royalty? Wow. I know the extremely big penthouses were taken off by developer since the beginning.
The datuk has good relationship with the royalty.
I heard from agent the Mac is located beside the show gallery or on the show gallery. The show gallery is just below paragon.
There is another development south east of paragon. I forgot its name. Does anyone knows?
Agent also told me the floor to floor height of Paragon is 3.5m. Is that common for condo development?
3BR and above units will have 2 parking lots.

Re: JB CBD Area Properties (Sky88, TwinGalaxy, Summerplace, Skysuite, Paragon etc)
Bro zoros, could u share what development are planed for the JB CBD area?
I think Setia has always been a price setter. They always priced premiumly.
Once they launch, I believe it will set a new market benchmark and Twin Galaxy being next door will benefit most.
Twin Galaxy can ride on Setia's marketing efforts and surroundings development efforts.

Hi butadesu & danntbt, hope you can see the uploaded map showing the locality for LIDO PROJECT. From the map, it would be very 99% confirmed that the entire Paragon Residences will be blocked by this LIDO project. It stretched from the abandoned waterfront city to LOT 1 then ends at the Marine department of JB. Yes, it would make sense from investment and "view" angles that any buyer should buy higher at 20 floors at least and above.
I heard Paragon now selling at RM700 on average for the new tower. I bought my twin galaxy at abt RM600. The fact that Setia placed "Sky88" as one of its Johor project = it's confirmed it would be launched b4 end of this year. As butadesu pointed out, any Setia involvement in Johor will benefit any surrounding progres. This is the biggest reason why i invested in Twin Galaxy instead of other similar high-rise projects besides it's also the nearest to CIQ-Customs in a matured JB CBD area. Btw, Twin Galaxy is each 35 floors high.

Below is a brief write-up of what Sky88 will be and its estimated progress.
The Johor Bahru’s tallest premium residential condominium of Setia Sky-88 will soon to be launched. A 55 storey luxury condominium valued at half billion ringgit set to have 600 units and two tower condominium will start at RM700 per sq ft, with unit size from 500 sq ft to 1500 sq ft. There will be the third block, which will be an office or commercial building. The Setia Sky 88 will be an iconic building in Johor Bahru. Comprising 3 iconic towers, with the third tower to be built under at a later phase of construction, the development will boast the highest private Sky Club at level-42-44.
According to SP Setia, the first two towers to be built in the first phase of construction will house 588 serviced apartment units while the third tower will contain 284 units.

Re: JB CBD Area Properties (Sky88, TwinGalaxy, Summerplace, Skysuite, Paragon etc)
Personally I prefer 3BR or larger for condo.
A small unit will generally targets singles working class.
Which I guess make good sense for CBD area.
Your rental targets should be singles, working in JB CBD or Singapore.
Whether it is worth is price is everyone's guess because the new codo development in Johor CBD is just beginning.

Re: JB CBD Area Properties (Sky88, TwinGalaxy, Summerplace, Skysuite, Paragon etc)
Lucky the unit I bought is 22nd floor :P, anyway..
Bro zoros, I'm concern with JB ability to design a high density city. A condo of 600 units plus twin galaxy of ?? units will put a stress on transportation in the area. Public transport like rail is the only way to solve the problem. I like the idea of Sertia integrating work and residential together, this will reduce the need to travel. I have expect nothing less than their top developer. And Twin Galaxy being next door can ride on everything setia has put in place. If Setia can sell, twin galaxy should be even more value for $$.
someone posted Sky88 already start selling.

Re: JB CBD Area Properties (Sky88, TwinGalaxy, Summerplace, Skysuite, Paragon etc)
Yes as in my composite map posted earlier, the Lido Waterfront in the area ends at the existing Jetty. Dpending on the layout and design of the waterfront project, it could enhance the view actually. The advantage of Paragon is there will be few highrise in the immediate surrounding, except for the ???? concerning the larger plot of land next to Paragon. At the end of the day it is a matter of what the buyer/investor value more, quiter city fringe or the convenience of city living. Each would have their niche. ultimately it will all depends on how Iskandar Region blossoms.
Having said that, FH would be more or less safe in the longer run, I would avoid those on reclaimed land though....so personally i would not be keen on Lido Beach projects.
By the way is the Paragon showroom opening tommorow?

Ryukaide, for me as an investor, i bought the 2 BDRM of 936 sqft. This is the best in terms of investment, flexibility and perhaps even for own-stay next time when retire. I would say most of the high-rise condos so far r FH.You might be better-off to buy a 2 BDRM unit if possible. Otherwise, get a studio unit but face to Singapore view (South) for your Twin Galaxy.

The highest price for SA residence is about 470k for highest floor 3+1 unit, so it's out of your range. Design & facilities similar to NI residence.
