About Media Centre

Media Centre is an industrial building in Geylang (District 13). It is located along Genting Lane, Singapore 349567.

Under the URA Master Plan the site is zoned Business 2 with a gross plot ratio of 2.5. Business 2 zoning covers general industry with a nuisance buffer of 100 m, including heavier trades.

The site is leasehold, with about 14 years left to run. A tail that short materially narrows the pool of banks willing to finance a purchase. It sits on about 24,360 sqm of land with roughly 62,230 sqm of gross floor area.

1 transaction has been recorded here, at a median of S$187 psf. The most recent was in June 2020.

Across JTC's rental returns for Genting Lane, the median rent for industrial space on this street works out to about S$1.60 psf per month over 106 observations. Observed medians on the street span S$0.73 to S$2.20 psf per month. These are street-level figures from undated JTC snapshots, not a rent quoted for this property.

1 industrial project is still uncompleted on this street, adding about 17,170 sqm of gross floor area, the earliest due around 2027.

The nearest port or airport land is about 6.1 km away. The closest business-park zone is about 1.9 km away. The nearest MRT is Geylang Bahru MRT, 714 m away (about a 11-minute walk). The closest bus stop (Tannery Blk) is 227 m away (about a 4-minute walk).

1 business is currently registered at this address with ACRA.

What has Media Centre sold for?

Key takeaway1 transaction is on record since 1995, most recently in Jun 2020 — too few to support a median, so the deals themselves are listed instead.

Jun 2020	Single-user Factory	S$50.00M	267,939 sqft	$187

What does space at Media Centre rent for?

Key takeawayNo rent is published for Media Centre itself. On its street, Genting Lane, strata factory space rented at a median of $2.15 psf a month in 2026Q3. That is not this building's own rent, and never a quote for a particular unit.

Read the figures right

Completion year: the first quarter JTC records a TOP (Temporary Occupation Permit) at this address. JTC lists major industrial projects (7,000 sqm and up) from 2013; where an older building stood on the site, this is the current building's year.

Developer: as named on JTC's completion record, often the project company rather than the listed group.

Approved for a new building: the year URA approved the latest new erection or redevelopment here. An APPROVAL year, not a completion year — never state it as the building's age.

Station taps: average weekday fare-card taps in and out at the nearest MRT/LRT station (LTA DataMall). People passing the station's gates, not people visiting this building.

Season parking: the cheapest URA car season rate (commercial ticket) at a public car park within 500 m, per month. HDB's season rates depend on a zone we don't have, so they are shown as HDB's tiers.

Foot-traffic score: PropKaki's relative score from nearby MRT and bus taps, workers and residents around (and, for retail, competing malls), ranked against buildings of the same kind. A percentile, not a count of people.

Company REGISTRATIONS at this address (ACRA), not a tenancy schedule. Registration does not mean the company physically occupies space here, and a low count does not mean the building is empty. Do not describe this as occupancy or vacancy.

Unbuilt GFA cannot be computed here — it needs BCA built-GFA, which covers about 5% of commercial buildings and no industrial ones. Zoning and plot ratio are on record; headroom is not.

Median across 2000Q1-2026Q2 — an all-time level, NOT a current rent. Quote the latest quarter for "what does it rent for now".
