Panorama of the land just one bridge away from Saigon ward, newly breaking ground for a 30,000 billion VND administrative center
Wednesday, 6 May 2026
"The land for the new administrative center and central plaza is located opposite the Sala urban area and Thiso Mall, just one Ba Son bridge away from Saigon ward; bordering three main roads—Mai Chi Tho, To Huu, and Nguyen Co Thach—forming a complete new 'central axis' in the core of Thu Thiem."

This landmark project marks a pivotal shift for Ho Chi Minh City's eastern urban core. The 47-hectare administrative complex, with its 33-story tower and expansive plaza, will serve as the city's new political and administrative heart, attracting up to 15,000 daily visitors. For real estate investors, this signals a strategic inflection point: Thu Thiem's land values are poised for sustained appreciation as infrastructure and civic amenities solidify its status as a premier district.
The project's location, adjacent to major thoroughfares like Mai Chi Tho and just one bridge from the historic Saigon ward, enhances connectivity and desirability. Short-term, we can expect a flurry of speculative buying and price adjustments in surrounding residential and commercial properties. Long-term, the administrative center will anchor demand for office space, retail, and high-end housing, creating a self-sustaining ecosystem.
Investors should prioritize land parcels within a 1-2 km radius of the project, particularly those near planned metro stations and green spaces. While entry prices may be high, the compound effect of government investment and urban migration will yield strong capital gains over a 5-10 year horizon. Avoid overleveraging; instead, focus on strategic acquisitions with clear exit plans.
