Future developments around The Orie are part of Toa Payoh's rejuvenation efforts, as outlined in the URA Masterplan. Plans include a new integrated development that will co-locate a regional sports centre with a library, food centre, and polyclinic.

These projects aim to create a comprehensive lifestyle destination for Toa Payoh residents upon completion.
