Metro Star to have pedestrian bridge connecting to metro line in HCMC

Metro Star, located in Thu Duc on HCMC’s outskirts, is being developed by Vietnamese conglomerate CT Group, also based in HCMC.

The construction of pedestrian bridges linking this metro line with property projects along it is underway, set for completion at the end of this year. The schedule puts more energy and attention into the projects with these bridges.

Customers with real housing needs or investors appreciate real estate projects along metro systems because they increase value and infrastructure connectivity. This is true in countries like Singapore, Thailand, Japan, and Korea. Some of the busy areas connected to metro lines are Myeongdong in Korea, and Dotonbori and Takeshita Street in Japan.

Among the nine planned elevated pedestrian bridges for HCMC’s metro line 1, Binh Thai Station in Thu Duc will get direct connectivity with the Metro Star project’s shopping road and multi-purpose area on its second floor. This will benefit Metro Star residents a lot.

Not just that, the Binh Thai Station area will also be home to a parking lot for buses on 3,000m2 and a 1,000m2 private parking lot. Meanwhile, Star will have a 31,000m2 parking lot. They are expected to make the property project more attractive to buyers and investors.

Prices at projects along the metro line have been on the rise, and the current prices for Metro Star products are about 43% higher compared to the time of the first sale period.

According to the project developer, Metro Star prices may continue to rise as the metro line is set for official operations this September.

Metro Star is designed by Singapore leading design firm Axis. Its main products include apartments and shophouses. Its design has won an international award – "Complex project with the most beautiful architecture in Vietnam".

Metro Star will offer more than 100 utilities for residents inside and outside the area. They will include a shophouse area similar to Myeongdong in Korea.

With an area of 1.8 hectares with two blocks in the shape of a three-pointed star, the Metro Star shopping street is designed in a zigzag shape, each corner will offer ideal space for photos.

In addition, with the concept of "connecting the essence of Singapore", Metro Star's living space will focus on green nature with utilities like a forest garden, fern area, tropical rainforest, tent area with lawns, camping area, hammock area, and lawn area for relaxation. Other facilities will include ones for meditation, gym, a swimming pool, yoga space, and walkways.

The Metro Star developer plans to deliver its housing products to customers in the second quarter of 2024.
