Formerly a military restricted area, Tengah is currently reserved for new housing developments, making it Singapore's newest Housing and Development Board town since the development of Punggol in the late-90s.[3]
After the demilitarisation of the military training area at Tengah, the first estate, Plantation Grove, was launched in Tengah in November 2018.[4] Tengah is divided into various districts, namely Plantation, Park, Garden, Market Place, Forest Hill and Brickland Districts.
Tengah lies east of Jurong Innovation District and north of Jurong Lake District, two new industrial and business developments. These areas are planned as a new decentralized business district.[5]
