The East of Ho Chi Minh City, especially the area connecting Thu Duc, Di An, and Bien Hoa, is expected to thrive in the future.
Shaping a New Development Hub
According to investors, identifying the area that will become the focal point of development in the new urban structure should not be based solely on administrative geography but also considered through three crucial factors.
Firstly, it should be a strategic transit location, connecting multiple economic corridors. The Thu Duc – Di An – Bien Hoa axis currently serves as the eastern gateway to Ho Chi Minh City and directly links major industrial and logistics centers such as Binh Duong, Dong Nai, Cai Mep port, and Long Thanh airport.

Secondly, inter-regional infrastructure is a decisive factor in accelerating growth. This area is witnessing the development of several large-scale projects, expected to be completed by the end of 2025, including the Tan Van intersection, Ring Road 3, Bien Hoa – Vung Tau expressway, and Long Thanh airport.
Additionally, the extension of Metro lines to Binh Duong, Dong Nai, and Long Thanh airport will contribute to a comprehensive transportation network, reducing congestion in the existing Ho Chi Minh City.
Thirdly, policy and administrative planning are crucial. An area can only achieve remarkable development when it has a clear advantage in its role within the regional development strategy. Currently, the Thu Duc – Di An – Bien Hoa area has the potential to become the administrative, creative, and industrial nucleus of an expanded Ho Chi Minh City.
Thu Duc is poised to become a “creative city,” Di An serves as the terminus of Metro Line 1 and the northern gateway to Ho Chi Minh City, while Bien Hoa is developing the new administrative center of Bien Hoa Dong Pho.
Moreover, the density and quality of the resident population, including a large number of experts, engineers, and young workers from industrial parks, universities, and administrative agencies, are essential factors in shaping a sustainable urban development foundation.

With its strategic location, rapidly improving infrastructure, favorable planning policies, and a solid resident base, the Thu Duc – Di An – Bien Hoa connectivity hub is entering a phase of value accumulation before experiencing significant growth. For investors, this is a crucial moment to recognize and seize the market opportunity.
Anticipating the Potential Price Appreciation of The Gio Riverside Project
Ideally located at the heart of the Thu Duc – Di An – Bien Hoa connectivity axis, The Gio Riverside project enjoys significant advantages from its position after the merger.
Residents can easily access the Tan Van intersection, Ring Road 3, Bien Hoa – Vung Tau expressway, and Long Thanh airport. The completion of these infrastructures by the end of 2025 will not only enhance the project’s overall infrastructure but also enable investors to get ahead of the market as it prepares to enter a growth cycle after the accumulation phase.
Additionally, the presence of the Aeon Mall Bien Hoa, with an investment of over VND 6,000 billion, expected to commence operations in 2027, promises to create a complete ecosystem, catering to shopping, entertainment, and service needs around The Gio Riverside project. Moreover, the proposal to build a new administrative center for Dong Nai province – Bien Hoa Dong Pho has been approved, expected to attract a large number of civil servants, experts, and regional agencies to the area.
The Gio Riverside Project Perspective
According to An Gia’s representative, the completion of infrastructure and synchronized utilities will not only attract real housing demand but also act as “value anchors,” reinforcing The Gio Riverside’s potential.
Notably, the project is scheduled for delivery in late 2027 when all transportation and amenity infrastructures will be operationally stable. This strategic “drop point” enables the project to cater to the real housing and rental demands of experts and officials working at the airport, high-tech parks, the new administrative center, and satellite industrial clusters. Simultaneously, it opens up distinct price appreciation prospects in the long term, with primary prices starting from only VND 40-45 million/sqm.
For investors, holding assets during the soft price threshold phase, before the infrastructure is fully operational, is a strategic move to optimize price appreciation potential in the medium and long term.
The company is currently focusing its resources on the second phase of The Gio Riverside project by introducing the Gio Dong tower, aiming to achieve impressive results, following the success of the Gio Nam tower in phase 1.
