Condo Review: A Riverside Sanctuary At Riviere

Riviere by Frasers Property stands as a striking example of luxurious urban living, set against the picturesque backdrop of the Singapore River. Located at 1 Jiak Kim Street, this development seamlessly marries the charm of heritage with the sophistication of modern architecture, offering residents a unique blend of history and contemporary luxury.

A Landmark of Heritage and Modernity

Riviere occupies a historically significant site, once home to the iconic Zouk nightclub. The development pays homage to this rich history by preserving and integrating three conserved warehouses into its design.
