The 16-storey tower, developed on close to 50,000 sq ft of land, is prominently located at the junction of Jalan Besar and Lavender Street, close to the Marina Bay Financial Centre.<br \/>\nOffices at ARC 380 range from 700 to 1,001 sq ft, to appeal to SMEs seeking a property investment. Meanwhile, the work-life balance philosophy behind ARC 380 resulted in a Best Office Development win at the 8th\u00a0annual PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards (Singapore)\u00a0in October 2018 for developer Tong Eng Group.<br \/>\nA third-generation family business, Tong Eng Group has been developing property, including 200 acres of land, since the 1950s.

Conveniently located at the fringe of CBD and in close proximity to MRT and expressways, it is equidistant to the shopping belt in Orchard Road and the commercial hub in Raffles Place. The project espouses current thinking in commercial occupier use of space which aspires for an ecosystem for work, live and play. ARC380 is a distinctive product and a well deserving winner in this category.\u201d<br \/>\nThe distinctive curve of the building is designed to afford panoramic cityscapes and let natural light flood in, while the curtain-style exterior creates a sleek fa\u00e7ade. This is interspersed with sky terraces and outdoor relaxation gardens on every other floor between the sixth and 16th storeys.<br \/>\nTong Eng Group has added two floors of space for office workers to unwind, keep fit and mix some leisure time into their working day too. This reflects the modern approach of forward-thinking businesses who appreciate that an environment of well-being at work inspires greater creativity, better relationships and a positive mental attitude, thus boosting productivity and performance.<br \/>\nARC 380\u2019s fourth-storey, 12-metre-high covered Sky Terrace has barbecue facilities, water features and green garden space for office-bonding sessions.
