About this space

What a broker who has walked it will tell you

JustCo keeps serviced offices and coworking space at MacDonald House, Bugis. JustCo, founded in Singapore, has grown into one of Asia's largest coworking operators. The building is the red brick national monument at 40A Orchard Road, near the top of the shopping strip.

Dhoby Ghaut MRT is 29 metres away, one minute on foot, an interchange for the North South, North East and Circle lines. Bencoolen MRT is 431 metres, five minutes, on the Downtown line. Dhoby Ghaut's three lines give direct trains toward Marina Bay, Harbourfront and the northeast.

Dedicated desks run from S$310 a month. Private offices average about S$599 per person a month for a team of four. A solo office runs about S$643 per person, and the sixteen to twenty band averages about S$535.

MacDonald House is the red-brick building at 40A Orchard Road, a gazetted national monument near the top of Orchard Road. Dhoby Ghaut MRT, with three lines, is about six minutes on foot. JustCo runs a centre inside with private offices for teams of one to ten, dedicated desks and hot desks. A good fit here is teams that want an Orchard Road address with some character, and anyone whose commute touches the North South, North East or Circle lines, since all three meet at Dhoby Ghaut. Plaza Singapura is across the road, which covers lunch, groceries and errands in one stop. One practical note: because the building is protected, the office floors keep their original proportions, and rooms feel different from a glass tower, so view before you decide. We can set that up and negotiate the rent.
