Heard someone mentioned about the E&O property just behind Island Plaza, my dad was offered one Low Medium Cost 660 Sqft unit there, that place is called Palm Court.

Took a short tour that day, I find that the property location is really good, mere walking distance to Island Plaza, paid my SnP fee already, but now i heard someone mentioned that that piece of reclaimed land has got some crackings, so is it safe to live there? And even if the wall really cracks one day, will it affect the entire structure will it collapse?

Any civil engineers please enlighten people like me? How is the structure and foundation is built on any reclaimed land? Why should there be a grace period for at least 1 year is it to settle down the soil and make it solid or what before any construction?

I've heard another version of story that even though any reclaimed soil will go downwards, it will still not affect the foundation and piling structure for these houses, but what about this Palm Court which has an 11 storey high? Also heard that in Gold Coast, that even though the soil has gone down a lil, but the structure is still strong, so there should no be any worry.

Please advise a noob, thanks!
