I tell you, it's just about the best HDB neighbourhood in
Singapore. Got shopping, got good markets, got hawker centre, got
good schools nearby, right beside the sea, very breezy. And it's
the cleanest and most quiet housing estate I've seen. Nowhere else
comes close.
Yeah..... I've lived in Marine Parade all my life, and I
wouldn't want to move out of here if I could....
It's quiet and comfy with none of the hustle and bustle of other
estates like, say, Tampines.
About the only downside that Marine Parade has is that there are
no good MRT connections. The nearest MRT is at Eunos, which is
like.... 20 minutes away by bus.
It says a lot that I actually take the bus all the way down to
City Hall MRT when I go to school each morning. Because it takes
virtually just as long, and the train is no longer packed by the
time it reaches City Hall.
