Next is the back elevation taken from an open field parallel to Punggol Central.

These blocks commenced constructions earlier, so most of them are at the 7th / 8th floors while others are at the 5th and 6th levels.

Punggol Arcadia consists of 7 blocks of 16 storey buildings. The carpark will be at the basement with landscape decking. An elaborate pavilion will be constructed at the entrance to the estate.

Lets compare structural building progress, back elevation with back elevation.

On the average per month, we can see a complete floor being installed. The amount of work done includes the following back up facilities.

1. HDB factories design, made / prepared to order, prefabricated units accordine to projects and location. 
2. Transportation of fabricated housing units to site.
3. Handling and storage at building sites accordine to block numbers.
4. Hoisting by tower cranes up for installation.
5. Fixing, inspection, approval and final concreting.
All this work done, inspite of bad weather and ground conditions only took about 30 days. That's co-ordination.

The first block at the corner of open field and Punggol Field completed fifth level and are now working on the sixth floor. Take note that all facade units come complete with plastic sheet covered aluminium frames.

For Punggol Arcadia the protective cover for aluminium frames are white in colour.
