The Minton is a 1,145-units, which cover half a million square feet (approximately 7 football fields) is packed with facilities and water areas. There are a total of 1,155 trees and palms, 81,300 shrubs and groundcovers planted. Amidst the modern amenities, a lush tropical forest abound on the North Eastern side of the development. From a bird's eye view it seems a portion of unending multiplicity of green from the forest have been 'transplanted' onto the compound of this development.
This is the core location where residents are able to feel the therapeutic sensation of the vertical 'forest' and where the diversity of flora and fauna coexist in a symbiotic world.
