♠ LEAF-certified Development ♠ ▷ Tree House (Outstanding Award) Created by City Developments Limited, Tree House has caught the imagination of many with its stunning 24-storey facade that recently became a record in Guinness World Records for the largest vertical garden. This one-of-its-kind vertical garden was inspired by the surrounding vast greenery of the nearby Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, Upper Peirce Reservoir, Dairy Farm Nature Park and Zhenghua Park. It functions as a ‘bio-shield’ and insulation that reduces the estate’s carbon footprint by filtering pollutants and carbon dioxide from the air. Besides the vertical garden, there are sky gardens on the 7th, 13th and 19th floors at every apartment block to maximise space for greenery. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [Landscape Excellence Assessment Framework] Launched on 19 August 2013, the Landscape Excellence Assessment Framework (LEAF) is the first and only certification scheme in Singapore dedicated to recognise developments for greenery excellence in Singapore. Award winners will receive their certificates and plaques during the Singapore Garden Festival next week.
