DDuo Residences is a mixed development of a planned luxury residences, hotel, office and retail complex to be located on Ophir-Rochor Road in the Downtown Core of Singapore. This 2.7 ha prime site is strategically located in the heart of the City Centre along the Beach Road / Ophir-Rochor Corridor and is a natural extension from the established convention, office, hotel hub at Marina Centre.
