Based on Dr Lam's post which mentioned that this will be the first automated columbarium outside Japan and these 2 articles, ( can't post this comment with the http attached. will do so in further comment) 

 

there could be 89,600 urns in this sengkang columbarium .

A 50 square metre space can store 7,000 urns in an automated columbarium ( see first article)

This land parcel has a maximum allowable gross floor area of 3200 square metres ( see Lifecorp's tender for land parcel - second article). 20 percent of 3200 ( 640 sq metres )  is allowed by HDB for use as columbarium.

 

I am shocked that HDB awarded the tender to Lifecorp. 90,000 urns .
