Artist’s impressionGrand Dunman lies between Paya Lebar, a regional business centre on the eastern edge of the city, and Kallang, the sports and leisure waterfront to the west. This guide sets out the districts and the plans around them as the developer’s brochure describes them, with the land sale that began the project.
The Land Sale behind Grand Dunman
URA offered the Dunman Road land parcel on a 99-year lease under the Government Land Sales programme, and on 14 June 2022 announced the award of the tender to Sing-Haiyi Jade Pte. Ltd. The site measures about 25,234 square metres. The lease of Grand Dunman began on 12 September 2022, and the building plans were approved on 15 May 2023, with an amendment on 16 June 2023.
The site sits on the river beside Dakota station, with the Dakota estate around the station and the landed streets of Tanjong Katong across the water.
Paya Lebar, by the Circle Line.
The Paya Lebar interchange and the commercial precinct around it sit about a kilometre from Grand Dunman.
The Paya Lebar-Ubi Precinct beside Grand Dunman
The developer’s brochure describes the Paya Lebar-Ubi commercial precinct as a nexus of mixed-use developments, connections to expressways and major roads, adding employment and rental opportunities close to home. Paya Lebar Quarter is about 1.1 kilometres from the site and Paya Lebar Square about 1.2 kilometres, both beside the Paya Lebar interchange one stop from Dakota, and the brochure gives MacPherson and Ubi at about ten minutes by car.
Kallang and the Sports Hub from Grand Dunman

The brochure records the plans for the Kallang river area, including the Kallang Football Hub, the Singapore Tennis Centre and Benaan Kapal Green, beside the existing Passion Wave water-sports centre at Marina Bay.
