Midwood Condo insider tour
The Hillview estate of 2021 is a far cry from its original beginnings. Up till the 1980s, it was an industrial zone for many MNCs, including the likes of Cycle & Carriage, Castrol Oil, and the Old Ford Factory, which is the only remaining structure of Hillview’s seemingly distant past.
Midwood marks yet another new entrant into an area populated by large yesteryear condos such as Hillview Green, The Dairy Farm, and Glendale Park. Its location is just beside the newest condos in the area, The Hillier and Kingsford Hillview Peak, which TOP-ed in 2016 and 2017 respectively.
Midwood sits on the fringe of land that has yet to be developed and its address at Hillview Rise will require the existing roads to be extended to accommodate the condo.
