Thomson Reserve Sun Guide

Bright Hill Drive · District 20 · Independent guide

Pick a stack that stays cool after 3 pm.

In Singapore the harsh sun comes in the afternoon, from the west. Across Thomson Reserve's 55 stacks, afternoon sun on the windows ranges from almost none to about 6 hours a day. This guide shows you which is which before you pick a unit.
