SINGAPORE: HarbourFront Centre will close in the second half of 2026 to be redeveloped into a 33-storey building with office and retail spaces. It will not include the ferry and cruise terminal, which will be located next to the new development. Announcing its plans on Tuesday (Oct 28), real estate developer Mapletree said the new building is expected to be completed in the first half of 2031. “The reimagined HarbourFront Centre reflects the group’s broader vision of rejuvenating the HarbourFront precinct, further establishing it as a vibrant business and lifestyle hub in southern Singapore," said Mapletree's group CEO Hiew Yoon Khong. Tenants at HarbourFront Centre told CNA last year that they were uncertain about their future in the building, given reports that the 47-year-old development, which houses the Singapore Cruise Centre, will be revamped. One tenant told CNA on Monday that they had received a call from Mapletree, which owns HarbourFront Centre, telling them that their lease will expire by the end of July 2026. Mapletree said in a press release that the cruise and ferry terminal will start operations at a new location next to the existing HarbourFront Centre around the second half of 2026. CNA has contacted the Singapore Cruise Centre about its plans for the new terminal.
