The two towers are joined at the top by what CDL calls the Sky Boulevard, which holds the residents' Infinity Sky Pool, Sky Gym, Sky Club, Sky Kitchen and Sky Lounge. The residences sit above The Singapore EDITION hotel, and residents get services from hospitality-trained "Residential Hosts", according to the developer. The basements have 322 parking lots, of which 211 are for residents.

Boulevard 88 has only four unit types, from a 1,313 sq ft two-bedroom to a 6,049 sq ft penthouse. The developer's fact sheet (20 March 2019) gives this mix:

How far is Boulevard 88 from the MRT?

CDL described it in 2019 as a six-minute stroll to Orchard MRT station. Stacked Homes gives 510 m, or about six minutes, to Orchard station. Our straight-line measurements between OneMap coordinates for 86 Orchard Boulevard and the stations are about 470 m to Orchard (TE14) and about 500 m to Orchard Boulevard (TE13). Orchard Boulevard station opened on 13 November 2022 with Thomson-East Coast Line stage 3 (LTA).

CDL's release lists the Singapore Botanic Gardens, the Tanglin Club and the American Club, and Camden Medical Centre, Gleneagles Hospital and Mount Elizabeth Orchard among nearby amenities. It does not give distances, so we do not repeat school or distance claims here.

Stacked Homes lists recent resales of 1,313 sq ft two-bedroom units at S$5.29 million to S$5.52 million, 1,776 sq ft three-bedroom units at S$7.06 million to S$7.43 million, and a 2,799 sq ft four-bedroom unit at S$10.5 million. We checked the arithmetic: these work out to about S$4,030 to S$4,200, S$3,975 to S$4,185 and S$3,750 psf respectively, and the May 2019 penthouse to about S$4,936 psf. With only 154 units and a handful of resales a year, a single sale moves the averages, so compare like-for-like units using URA caveats.

What do Boulevard 88 units rent for?

Stacked Homes recorded 50 leases between September 2025 and August 2026, with a median rent of S$15,000 a month. Its medians by type were S$11,000 (2-bedroom), S$14,800 (3-bedroom) and S$24,900 (4-bedroom). We do not quote a rental yield: estimates on different sites differ, and a yield depends on each buyer's purchase price.

Who might Boulevard 88 suit?

This is a summary of trade-offs, not a recommendation. Boulevard 88's distinctive features are freehold tenure on Orchard Boulevard, a Safdie-designed pair of towers with shared rooftop facilities, hotel-style residential services, and a small development with no unit smaller than 1,313 sq ft. The trade-offs are quantum and liquidity: the smallest units have resold for more than S$5 million, its 2025 average was about half again the District 10 average, and only a few units change hands each year. Our ABSD guide covers stamp duties on second and later purchases, and our District 9 and 10 guide compares nearby projects.

Correction

29 September 2026: An earlier version of this page named CDL as the sole developer, placed the project in District 9, gave unit sizes of 1,615 to 6,630 sq ft, and credited the landscaping to Kathryn Gustafson and a 50 m lap pool. The developer is Granmil Holdings, a CDL, Hong Leong Holdings and Lea Investments joint venture; the project is in District 10; units range from 1,313 to 6,049 sq ft; the landscape consultant is Sitetectonix, and the rooftop pool is the Infinity Sky Pool. It also put Orchard MRT 650 m (eight minutes) away; Stacked Homes gives 510 m (six minutes). Unsupported claims about schools, school catchments, rental yields and Orchard Road's outlook were removed.
