Thanks for the updates. But I personally do feel that in order for Icon to take off, it will need something better than Capital Mall to assist. It has to be able to live up to its name of being an ICON. It has to be able to bring in some really big name which no one else have done so thus far. But of course if Capital Mall is engage for the 16 Jewel & the Gourmet Street Shop it will be an added advantage.
*
never think to drop by Icon City for shopping or hang out...will choose Mid Valley, One Utama, sunway Pryramid...

can foresee their commercial will struggle....even though Capital Mall will manage part of their commercial...but wont gurentee will be success...for instance, Mines 2...managed by Capital Mall...also die...

If wan people go there...the access must be very convenient...n some more...the buying power from surrounding neigbours must very strong....

after capitamall took over mines mana ada die. getting sibeh better lar.
now the mines is 1 of the hottest mall in seri kembangan.

capitamall very good in turning dead mall to alive. imo, they among the top mall management.

if the sohem icon mahsiao able to get them curi senyum liao. stil so picky.

sunway putramall, velocity mall and uptown the starling mall... oledi look for my clients liao. good presentation

by right now icon mahsiao mall should go look for tenant liao. stil do nothing. no eye see.
*
Mines is good...im saying is Mines 2...just beside Mines.... just opened 6 months then closed nearly 2 years...
now the link bridge is built to connect Mines to Mines 2.... in order to bring some crowd from Mines to Mines 2...the link bridge is fully covered with air condition...but still feel is abit far away from Mines... but untill now Mines 2 still not occupied by any tenant...hmmm...Think Capital Mall also headache to find solutions to bring some "wong -ness" to Mines 2...

for your information. mines 2 dulu not belong to capitamall when they took over mines 1.

maybe recently they baru took over. but management side never told me and my client about they took over mines 2.

dulu dulu i asked capitamall mines management regarding mines 2. they said mines 2 not belong to them.

yes very doable. Looked at it before and the traffic flow will bring cars to the Icon. Phase 1 finishing 2016 right, what about phase 2?
I really wanna see this thing do well(despite my doubts) cos of the iconic design n proximity to Taylor's/Sunway and all. They should bring in unique restaurants not chain food stores (especially ones present nearby).
*
Sunway got Geo ,Taylor got DK, Subang got incoming Subang jaya City Center, bangsar south a bit far, PJ Seksyen 13 got incoming F&N project, kelana jaya got paradigm mall, ara damansara got sime darby commercial center..... icon city need to depand on soho, service apatments tenants or workers from opposite road.... hmm.gif

But did u guys notice most of ms advertistment does not include Icon City. Everytime they advertise sure got Mcity, Icon residence, garden residence, southville and lately lakevilles but not Icon City.  Wandering why this is missing from the radar. The last time I saw the sale chart, they only manage to sell 75% . Not sure what is the current status...

they also din put southgate.. hmm.gif

Ya, MS only knows how to build things but weak in maintaining n enhancing the commercial buildings. Even UOA is doing much better than MS. Look at today's Bangsar South, it attracts many MNCs to setup their offices there. UOA put in so many resources into this Bangsar South project, making it the icon in Klang Valley.
*
agree... rclxms.gif

but just thinking UAO at Bangsar South is success...other projects just so so only...but anyway...market know...UAO is good in building of offices...

MS strategy is to generate maximum profit by fast turnover with average workmanship n jumping fast from 1 project to quickly to a new one if they can hit high sales n aggressively replenishing land bank

Nurturing, breast feeding n spoon feeding to develop n grow a mall seems to be not in line with the strategy

Agree or disagree?

will not touch MS projects...they just sell..no added value to their project....

True to that. . I bought the unit for my own use due to its strategic location and nearby my parents place. I hope there are not too many investors who falls into this category you just mention buying into this project hoping for a quick turn around. It ain't gonna happen here. But give it sometime I truly feel that this icon will turn out to be a great commercial area due to its iconic concept and strategic location. . If of course the promise infrastructure is in place
*
if buy for own stay is ok...

but MS untill today din have any successful commercial development to show... still doubt about their ability to manage the big commercial or shopping mall... their normal pratice is to sell fast n get money or profit in order for them to run for another projects.... really China-man business minded... sweat.gif

some more ...Icon need to compete with other developemts nearby...Midvalley, EcoCity, Paradigm mall, Sunway Pryramid, Sunway Geo, I-City, Tropicana Metropark, Uptown, F&N...etc...hmm ..chance for them to be great project is very tiny....mayb just 10%....to be average commercial area very high chance...so need to see wat can MS manangement can do about it... hmm.gif

based on their past projects n practice....after completion of this project...they will just cabut ....just left the buyers n investors to run the business...Good luck to all... smile.gif

U are right! MS dun really believe in sustainability (though they claim that they do). Good example is the Gourmet Street n The Jewel shop lots, where they are for sale, not for lease. In that case, the owner can do any kinda business without any restriction.
*
street mall or street boulevard actually not easy to manage...really hard to see successful project....

just can give 2 examples successful project...1. Giza Sunway @ Kota Damansara, 2. The Street @ The Curve Damansara Mutiara...
