The Choice Property Development has launched a noble high-rise condominium on upper Ekkamai Road, the zone that is close to Petchaburi Road, as available land plots in this downtown are approaching the limit. Named as “C Ekkamai,” the project features sky deck and lounge where ones can observe a 360-degree view of the Bangkok city; however, the interesting point is its mid-range starting price at 125,000 baht per square metre, an attractive price where moderate-income people can afford. While most condominiums along this thoroughfare are overpriced and running towards the shortage, C Ekkamai comes as a new spark to accommodate urban residents in 2019.

Upper Ekkamai
Phetburi-Thong Lo (grey dot) will be the closest station of the upcoming Monorail Grey Line
Ekkamai Road is divided into two parts, the one close to Sukhumvit Road and the other close to Petchaburi Road. C Ekkamai will be located in the latter part where Petchaburi Road is very close to reach. The absence of nearby BTS station is replaced by the benefit of close expressway ingress, which can take you to Rama III, Bang Na, and several places around Bangkok. To reach Asok CBD, you can take either Sukhumvit Road or Petchaburi Road by personal vehicles. However, if you don’t have one, you can take public bus or motorcycle taxi to BTS Ekkamai, and proceed further to Asok Station which is 3 stops down from there.
Chaem Chan Alley is another shortcut to Thonglor Road where you can find several Japanese restaurants along the passage
Upcoming BMA Grey Line
BMA Grey Line is an upcoming monorail transportation system which is expected to be completed in 2019. The closest station to C Ekkamai will be Phetburi-Thong Lo Station, which is a shorter drive away compared to reaching BTS Ekkamai. The project’s first phase starts from Watcharaphon to Rama IX Bridge Station and will extend to transit with MRT Blue Line at Tha Phra Station in the second phase.
