The Sail

This week was full of celebrations, gatherings and of course good food. Aiwei and Zull invited us yesterday to The Sail for some photo/video viewing/buffet at The Sail. They just bought a unit there and of course I am grabbing this chance to visit one of the Singapore residential icon.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Sail @ Marina Bay

The Sale is a waterfront lifestyle condominium located in the Marina Bay area in Singapore. It is expected to be completed in 2009. The first tenants have moved into the building in December 2008. The structure of The Sail is 245 metres (804 ft.) and 70 storeys high and will be Singapore’s tallest condominium/apartment and among the top 10 tallest residential building in the world. This development offers panoramic city view of Marina Bay and the sea. It is close to some of Singapore’s famous landmarks such as Suntec City, The Marina Bay Sands, Esplanade, and the Singapore River.

The party started at 5.30pm but of course most of us were late. We were one of the earliest (as I need to run for my second party – Little Grace Lin’s wedding at the Hilton) to arrive at 6pm. Before this, I was complaining to Nana about parking charges ($3 per hour) at the Sail and she gave me a really good suggestion i.e. to park at our office, per entry after 1pm is $3.10. That’s much cheaper than parking at the Sail and it is only 3 minutes walking distance to the Sail. Imagine if I were to stay at the Sail, I will wake up at 8.15am, shower and leave for work and reach office still 5 minutes earlier. But of cos that’s just my wishful thinking. How could I afford a place there (now). Haha, but its okay, cause Zull said he will invite me for mahjong at The Sail!
