Under a strategic partnership agreement signed last Sunday, Gamuda Land will be responsible for strategic planning, management and development of the Norton Park project, while Hankyu Hanshin will contribute its experience in railway development and integrated urban planning.

The partnership is part of Gamuda Land's strategy to broaden its international partner network while strengthening its project development capabilities and investment platform in Vietnam.

Gamuda Land is the property development arm of Malaysia's Gamuda Berhad, an infrastructure construction and engineering group. It entered Vietnam in 2007 and has developed 11 integrated township and high-rise residential projects in Hanoi, Hai Phong, Dong Nai, and HCMC.

Norton Park is located along National Highway 13, a major development corridor in northern HCMC. The site is near the Vietnam-Singapore Industrial Park I (VSIP I), Aeon Mall Binh Duong Canary, and Song Be Golf Resort. The project is also expected to benefit from HCMC's planned Metro Line No. 2, with the proposed C8 station located next to Norton Park.

With a planned construction density of just 20%, Norton Park will allocate around 2.5 hectares to landscaped parks, water features, and green spaces. The project is scheduled for handover in the third quarter of 2029 and is expected to add housing supply to the city's northern urban growth corridor.
