Source-derived summary

Gading Serpong is a planned township at Kelapa Dua and Pagedangan districts of Tangerang Regency, Banten, Indonesia, 21 km west of the capital city Jakarta. With a total area of 1,500 hectares, Gading Serpong is one of the elite planned satellite cities in Western Greater Jakarta (South Tangerang and Tangerang Regency), adjacent to Lippo Karawaci to the west, BSD City to the south, and Alam Sutera to the east.

Since the township is co-developed, Gading Serpong consists of two main area, Summarecon Serpong (for area developed by PT Summarecon Agung Tbk) and Paramount Serpong (for area developed by PT Paramount Enterprise International or Paramount Land). However, it is often still refereed as Gading Serpong or shortened to GS.

History

The township development started in 1998 by PT Jakarta Baru Cosmopolitan (JBC), which is a joint venture by Keris Group (who is known for their Batik Keris brand) and a reputable developer, Summarecon.

In 2004, to accelerate the development of Gading Serpong, Summarecon and Keris Group agreed to dissolve JBC, and separate the JBC's area equally, for each develop and manage their own respective area. The Summaercon part is known as Summarecon Serpong, while the Keris Group area was then known as Ambassador Gading Serpong. Both of the companies do not view each other as competitor, since both companies has a different view on development strategy.

In 2006, Ambassador Gading Serpong is taken over by Paramount Lake, and rename the area as Paramount Land.

Currently, development in Gading Serpong is being carried out by two developers, namely Paramount Land and Summarecon Agung.

Editorial summary

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Gading Serpong” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Gading, Serpong and Planned provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Maps, plans, fabric surveys and administrative records can establish how the site’s name, extent and function changed over time. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 12, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q30688241. Authority coordinates are -6.243, 106.629. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1998, 2004 and 2006.

Critical limits

A single description cannot reconcile every naming convention, rebuilding phase or administrative transfer associated with a place. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Treat names, boundaries and functions as historically changeable. Maps, plans, inventories and administrative records can clarify what the place meant at different dates.
