As expected, the NS12 station between Yishun and Sembawang will be built, as confirmed by Transport Minister Tuck Yew today. Even the station name, Canberra, was as expected.
Good news to all those who were successful for the BTO launch around that area.
It is time to push the government to build the Brickland station, which is between Choa Chu Kang and Bukit Gombak, especially those who were waiting to collect their keys to the BTO projects around that area.

HDB May 2013 BTO - Sembawang - EastWave@Canberra
Another BTO in Sembawang with only 4 and 5 rooms, just like EastBank@Canberra.
Layout is also pretty similar, although each block curves outwards which means some units facing internal compound may be closer to the opposite unit than the rest.
Unlike EastBank@Canberra, EastWave@Canberra comes with a 7 storey MSCP. It also comes with a 3 storey centre that houses a eating house, a supermarket, some shops and a childcare center for convenience.
Some units facing the car park will have about 35m of buffer so if you only have the lower units to choose from, it is not so bad. However, stay away from the lower units of 301, 303, 305, 317 and 319 as the heavy vehicular traffic it faces will only mean noise. To play it safe, units higher than the MSCP would be better.
Best unit would definitely be 329 as it faces a future park. That means unblock view. Unit 401 and 403 faces the park too but will receive the scorching afternoon sun.
High floor units facing the future school will have unblock views too but as a trade off, it will get the afternoon sun plus the noise from the school.
Units facing the future Canberra Way are facing the morning sun so these are not so bad either, except for lower floor units of 353 as it is very close to the MSCP even though it does not face it directly.
As for units facing the internal compound, units in blocks 120C and 120D are preferred as they face the morning sun as compared to those in blocks 120A and 120B which faces the afternoon sun.
