Punggol Parcvista launched on 27 May 2011 as part of a six-project HDB BTO sales exercise. Applications for that exercise closed on 2 June 2011.
The historical BTO list records 682 homes at Punggol Parcvista. Across all six developments, the exercise offered 3,957 flats, so the national exercise total should not be attributed to the Punggol project alone.
For readers researching Punggol Parcvista history, May 2011 is the sales-launch milestone. Contemporary publicity described the exercise as the largest single BTO launch at that time, not a record that necessarily remains current.

A contemporary reproduction of the launch publicity names Punggol Parcvista alongside Costa Ris, Golden Lily, Tampines GreenLeaf, Tampines GreenWood and Woodlands Peak.
It records the online application deadline and an exhibition at HDB Hub. These are details of how applicants encountered the housing offer in 2011.
The Housing Map chronology independently lists Parcvista’s launch date and 682 units.
A town grows through individual projects offered within wider housing programmes. Parcvista’s launch was local to Punggol, while its sales exercise also included homes in three other towns.
That relationship helps explain why historical reports may contain both a project-specific unit count and a much larger exercise total.
The dated phrase “largest single launch” describes the comparison made in May 2011. It should be preserved as a contemporary description rather than repeated as a claim about today.
This account establishes the application period and project identity. Estimated completion dates in old lists remain forecasts unless a later record confirms what actually happened.
