  • Specific text to be added or removed:

Oasia Hotel Downtown is a 193-meter skyscraper in Singapore's central business district. Designed by the Woha architecture firm and completed in 2016, the tower is characterized by its hanging gardens on the outer facade over 27 floors.

The building garnered several international architectural accolades, including the Urban Land Institute's Global Awards for Excellence, Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat's Best Tall Building Worldwide, and the Good Design Award awarded by The Chicago Athenaeum and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design.

The building's distinctive features led to the issuance of a commemorative postage stamp by the Singapore Post in 2021.

@Edvarcl: You didn't sign your post. I'm rejecting the request because I don't understand what you are asking us to change. Since this article is poorly sourced, and there's already an article for Oasia Hotel Downtown, I recommend we turn it into a disambiguation page. STEMinfo (talk) 02:17, 11 January 2024 (UTC)Reply


@STEMinfo: Yes, I realised that (about the signing). My apologies.

My objective is to submit changes for consideration to update this blurb on Oasia Hotel Downtown.

Would it make more sense to expand this page in the vein of the Millennium_&_Copthorne_Hotels page, alongside Wiki pages for notable properties within the Millennium such as Millennium_Hotel_Taichung and Millennium_Biltmore_Hotel?

@Edvarcl: I don't think there's enough independent sourcing for an Oasia Hotel article. I recommend instead that we turn this into a redirect to Far East Organization#Oasia, which I just created. That section can be built up, and forked back as there's more coverage for the brand. If you can find more sources in the next few weeks suggesting that this should stay as a standalone Oasia Hotel article, I'd change my mind. In the meantime, I'm going to create an Oasia disambiguation page. If there were more Oasia Hotel articles, then we could consider also doing an Oasia Hotel disambiguation page.
