1. Readers are advised to use information available here as study guide and use it at your own risk. 
2. Please note that changes/ update based on available information will be made from time to time, readers are advised to check on this page regularly.
3. Analysis was done based on available data at the time of publishing of this review.
4. As each and every unit has it's own attributes, analysis shown here only represent the majority units in the stacks having the same attribute including sun, wind, view, distance etc. 

Block 107A
 
North-North East facing stacks: 264, 266

1. Both stacks are facing North towards North East. Both stacks will have at least 3 months in a year exposed to 3pm west sun. Stack 264 will have additional gable end wall expose to west sun all year round. (Please refer to sun and shading analysis diagram for details available to subscribers only)    
2. Wind potential will be mixed for both due to the positioning of both stacks. Stack 264 will enjoy moderate wind from North while stack 266 will have limited wind exposure. Both will not have exposure to South-South East (S/SE) wind due to blocking from similarly high surrounding blocks.
3. Stack 264 will have better spatial quality compare to stack 266 with distance towards stack 30 at least 36m away while stack 266 at least 20m away toward stack 44. Higher floor for both will achieve better spatial quality with at least 36m away to stack 30.
4. Lift ratio is at 1:48. This ratio may not be the best of 1:40 but it is still within the maximum comfort level of 1 lift serving 60 units.
5. Both stacks will have up to 5m travelling distance to the nearest lift lobby. US regulations allow for maximum 30m travelling distance for disable while UK allow for maximum 50m travelling distance without rest for mobility impaired using stick individual.
6. Stack 264 is located next to an open staircase which means it can be accessed by strangers anytime and proximity to it may pose security concern.

 
North West facing stacks: 260, 262

1. Both stacks are facing North West. Both stacks will have exposure to 3pm west sun all year round. (Please refer to sun and shading analysis diagram for details available to subscribers only)    
2. Wind potential will be equal for both due to the same orientation of both stacks. Both stacks will enjoy moderate wind from North. Both will not have exposure to South-South East (S/SE) wind due to blocking from similarly high surrounding blocks.
3. Both stacks will have equal spatial quality with distance towards block 103B of Alkaff Courtview at least 63m away
4. Lift ratio is at 1:48. This ratio may not be the best of 1:40 but it is still within the maximum comfort level of 1 lift serving 60 units.
5. Stack 260 will have the furthest distance to the lift lobby among all stacks which is about up to 24m walk away while stack 262 will be nearer at 17m. US regulations allow for maximum 30m travelling distance for disable while UK allow for maximum 50m travelling distance without rest for mobility impaired using stick individual.
6. Both stacks are located next to an open staircase which means it can be accessed by strangers anytime and proximity to it may pose security concern.

3. Both stacks will have equal spatial quality with distance towards block 107B looking towards staircase next to stack 284 while flanked by stacks 280, 282 and 276.
4. Lift ratio is at 1:48. This ratio may not be the best of 1:40 but it is still within the maximum comfort level of 1 lift serving 60 units.
5. Stack 260 will have the furthest distance to the lift lobby among all stacks which is about up to 24m walk away while stack 262 will be nearer at 19m.
