Two developments, totalling 204 rooms, have opened this year and two more with 675 rooms altogether will open within the next three years, all outside the city belt.

The latest to open is the 50-unit Fraser Place Fusionopolis located in the heart of Singapore's thriving research and development scene at JTC Corporation's Fusionopolis @ one-north research hub at Buona Vista.

The serviced apartments, which are on levels 17 to 19 of the park's 'Symbosis' Tower, opened last Wednesday and rates start from $6,300 a month.
