Location
The Robertson Opus location: Fort Canning MRT, the river and the schools
The Robertson Opus is at 7 to 15 Unity Street (District 9), between Mohamed Sultan Road and Merbau Road in Robertson Quay, with the Singapore River at the end of the street. Fort Canning MRT is about three minutes' walk away, Fort Canning Park about five, and River Valley Primary School about 650 to 750 m.
Getting around
- Fort Canning MRT (DT20) on the Downtown Line: about three minutes' walk, by the developer's estimate. Chinatown, an interchange with the North East Line, is one stop away, Telok Ayer two, Downtown three and Bayfront, for Marina Bay, four.
- Clarke Quay MRT (North East Line) and Great World MRT (Thomson–East Coast Line) are within walking distance too, along the river.
- By car: the Central Expressway is close by, and the CBD and Orchard Road are a short drive.
- On foot: the Singapore River park connector runs along Robertson Quay, east to Clarke Quay and Boat Quay and west to Kim Seng Park.
Walking times are the developer's estimates; use a map app for your own route.
Food, shops and the river
Robertson Walk, the development's own podium, brings back shops, cafés and restaurants on level 1 and basement 1, about 26 units and a grocer around Oasis Court, its dining courtyard. Around it, Robertson Quay's riverside restaurants and cafés, UE Square across Unity Street, and Clarke Quay and Boat Quay along the river.
- The Singapore River promenade, at the end of Unity Street
- Fort Canning Park, about five minutes' walk
- The Singapore Repertory Theatre next door, and the Civic District's museums further along the river
- Chinatown, Marina Bay and Orchard Road a few minutes away by MRT or car
Schools near The Robertson Opus
River Valley Primary School is about 650 to 750 m away, depending on the block, within 1 km. St. Margaret's School (Primary) (girls, about 1.4 km) and Anglo-Chinese School (Junior) (boys, about 1.9 km) are within 2 km; both are Two-Track schools from the 2027 exercise, where the 2 km band matters.
Within 2 km
Cantonment Primary, Alexandra Primary and Zhangde Primary are each about 1.8 to 1.95 km away, as well as St. Margaret's (Primary) and ACS (Junior). Singapore Management University and the School of the Arts are a few stops away.
Using the address for P1
Under MOE's rules, a new home's address can be used for Primary 1 registration if the vacant possession date in your sale and purchase agreement is no later than 31 December two years after the registration year. The developer expects TOP in Q4 2028; ask me for the vacant possession date in the sale and purchase agreement, and I'll tell you which registration year it fits. How P1 registration works.
Distances are straight lines on the map from the middle of each block to each school; ACS (Junior) measures about 1.91 to 1.97 km that way, close to the 2 km line, so check your block's postal code. The five blocks have their own postal codes: 239591 (Block 7), 239592 (Block 9), 237995 (Block 11), 239593 (Block 13) and 239594 (Block 15). MOE's official distance category is measured from the school's boundary on OneMap; check it on onemap.gov.sg/school in your registration year.
The blocks and their neighbours
The five blocks stand around a courtyard. Blocks 9 and 11 line Unity Street, facing UE Square about 25 m across the road. Block 7 is on the Mohamed Sultan Road side, about 26 m from the shophouses across the street, and Block 13 on the Merbau Road side, about 15 m from The Robertson House. Block 15 is at the back, facing Village Residence Robertson Quay and the Singapore Repertory Theatre, with the river beyond.
Inside, the blocks face one another across the courtyard and the 45 m lap pool: about 27 m between Blocks 11 and 15, and about 73 m across between Blocks 7 and 13, by the developer's distances plan.
