Marina Bay is located on the southern part of Singapore. This artificial bay was formed as part of a land reclamation project to “seamlessly extend Singapore’s downtown district”, according to the official Marina Bay website.
As part of the Marina Bay development, many residential and entertainment projects are planned in the hope that Marina Bay will become an all day-all night lifestyle hub with office, commercial, residential, and entertainment attractions.
