Bcons City – A New Urban Center with Prime Amenities
The area around Ho Chi Minh City’s University Village has undergone a remarkable transformation over the past five years. The Thong Nhat road section, connecting National Highway 1K to the entrance of the Ho Chi Minh City National University, has been expanded to a width of 32 meters with six lanes. The urban landscape here has been revitalized, now buzzing with a prosperous and vibrant atmosphere.
High-rise residential buildings are starting to emerge, including the massive Bcons Trade, Service, Office, and Apartment Complex (Bcons City), which is currently under bustling construction. By July 2024, the Bcons City apartment tower had reached the fourth floor, and as per the planned completion schedule, the complex will be operational in 2025. Bcons City will offer a range of amenities, including a seven-story commercial center, services, and a hotel to serve the people of Di An City.
Also located within the Bcons City urban complex, the Green Topaz Tower is in the final stages of construction and refinement. While other apartment towers have yet to announce their products to the market, construction is progressing upward.

In terms of internal utilities, the B.School within Bcons City, offering grades 1 to 2 with a six-story building and 30 functional rooms, has officially started enrolling students for the 2024-2025 academic year. The B.School system, encompassing a nursery, kindergarten, and grades 1 to 3, will fully meet the educational needs of Bcons City residents and the people of Di An City in general.
Additionally, right next to Bcons City is a system of nine universities belonging to the Ho Chi Minh City National University. Thus, in terms of convenience and amenities, Bcons City is an address that integrates almost all the necessary facilities to meet various needs, from entertainment to education and shopping.
The chain of over 26 utilities within Bcons City has elevated the infrastructure and amenities of the Ho Chi Minh City National University Village area, particularly at the gateway between Thu Duc City and Di An City.
Owning Real Estate in Bcons City – A Golden Opportunity
Major transportation routes like Thong Nhat Road have always been a powerful catalyst for the comprehensive development of an area. This has been evident with the transformation of four key roads in Ho Chi Minh City: Nguyen Van Linh Boulevard, the East-West Boulevard, Pham Van Dong Boulevard, and Hanoi Highway. The presence of Bcons City has swiftly brought a prosperous urban environment to Thong Nhat Road.
Currently, property values along Pham Van Dong Boulevard, which connects to National Highway 1K, have increased manifold compared to when the road first appeared. The same is happening with real estate along Thong Nhat Road, with values surging in the surrounding areas.
However, as the central amenity axis of National Highway 1K and the gateway connecting the center of Di An City, the Ho Chi Minh City National University Village, Hanoi Highway, Metro Line No. 1 (Ben Thanh – Suoi Tien), the Eastern Bus Station, and Thu Duc City, real estate along Thong Nhat Road is even more attractive, driving up prices in the near future.
According to the development plan of Binh Duong province, the University Village area and the East-West axis (Thong Nhat Road) will be a new urban area focusing on service sector development. The combination of education and urban development has created a unique highlight for this area in terms of quality of life.
The total length of Thong Nhat Road after expansion is approximately 3km, passing through three wards: Dong Hoa, Binh An, and Binh Thang of Di An City. The project is being expedited to ensure completion and synchronization with the operation of Metro Line No. 1 (Ben Thanh – Suoi Tien) by the end of 2024.
Upon completion, the Bcons City apartment tower will provide the Ho Chi Minh City University Village with a seven-story amenity complex.
There are many opportunities to own real estate on Thong Nhat Road during this phase, with Bcons City apartment products offering affordable prices, with a two-bedroom apartment costing just over VND 2 billion.
In terms of geographical location and distance, Bcons City provides extremely convenient access to the center of Ho Chi Minh City through two main gateways: National Highway 1K – Pham Van Dong and Hanoi Highway – Vo Nguyen Giap, as well as the metro line, taking just 15 minutes to reach Ben Thanh Market.
