Located at Tanah Merah Kechil Link, Sceneca will be directly connected to the Tanah Merah MRT Station via a sheltered linkway. “Sceneca Square will finally bring about a mall to Tanah Merah which it can call its own,” says Tan Zhiyong, CEO of MCC Singapore. “With direct MRT access, Sceneca will likely become the focal point of Tanah Merah where shoppers, visitors, commuters and nearby residents can congregate and transit, thereby injecting much vibrancy and excitement into the neighbourhood.”

MCC Singapore and its joint venture partners purchased the site at Tanah Merah Kechil Link in a government land sale in November 2020. They had won the site with a bid of $248.99 million ($930 psf per plot ratio). Sceneca will be MCC Singapore’s third mixed-use development project, the first being The Poiz Residences and The Poiz Centre (directly connected to Potong Pasir MRT Station), as well as One Bernam in Tanjong Pagar which is currently undergoing construction.
Inspired by the Tanah Merah (“red soil” in Malay) location, Sceneca, designed by award-winning ADDP Architects, will have a terracotta façade with modern steel details. The project is poised to become an iconic landmark of Tanah Merah.

The development has a mix of one- to four-bedroom units with sizes ranging from 463 sq ft to 1,518 sq ft, with four 4-bedroom penthouses of 2,400 to 2,756 sq ft. Prices range from $958,000 ($2,069 psf) for a one-bedroom unit to $1.085 million ($2,017 psf) for a one-bedroom plus study; from $1.33 million ($1,962 psf) for a two-bedroom and $1.48 million ($1,965 psf) for a two-bedroom plus study; from $1.765 million ($1,952 psf) for a three-bedroom; and from $2.985 million ($1,966 psf) for a four-bedroom.
The 14- and 15-storey residential towers are set back from the Tanah Merah MRT station and its passing trains. Residential units start from the third storey, above the retail mall and street level. The single-storey Sceneca Square will feature a curated mix of cafes, restaurants, shops and a 10,000 sq ft new-to-market supermarket. Fronting the mall is an event plaza which can host pop-up stalls, bazaars and events.
