Boss, this SD Union Square is SJ7 in USJ?

From Damen got to cross the road to the USJ 7 LRT and the BRT stations, so hopefully there will be a bridge linking Damen to either 1 of the station?

So far only Jaya Grocer is the confirmed anchor tenant here?

According to the newspaper report in 2011, Spore's Food Republic is also another anchor tenant here.

Bro, is Malton supposed to manage this mall?

Summit is really in bad shape now, I hope they can rejuvenate it next year although I doubt there will any difference unless they kick out the existing tenants and buy over the lots and lease out to quality tenants like what Sunway is doing to Putra Mall.

Any idea when Da Men will be open for biz?

Waiting for them to put a big signboard to announce the opening date!

I hope the REIT can make Damen a success like Pavilion? At least get some good quality tenants. Most probably the REIT will lease out the units in Damen to control the tenants' quality.

Summit's reno works still ongoing, nt sure how it will change their fate if the same old tenants are retained?

Bro, u r referring to Pavillion mall struggling to get fashion tenants?

Yeah, at least Subang Parade or Empire std should be good enough, but the success of the mall really depend on the management quality of the mgmnt co.

Bro, the Pavilion REIT just announced today only ma that they are buying Da Men, so previously Damen struggled to get fashion tenants has got nothing to do with the REIT right?

Yeah, I dont think it is impossible, all depend on the hard work of the mgmnt co!

Read from an article the anchor tenants are Jaya Grocer, Popular & Royal Sporting House - that's all??? No cinema?

Opening for biz in November, so Summit's mgmt team must be sweating!

Another anchor tenant would be Food Republic as stated in their website, but there is no mention of other tenants there.

Bro, maybe TGV or MBO can open in Damen to compete with GSC in Summit. It is not surprising for both to be located so near each other, just like in 1U.

Yes, a good example is Nu Sentral, the GSC is opened at the highest floor thereby attracting the F&B biz there.

Maybe Empire is not big enough or they dont see the need to open a cinema there?

Weekdays I think GSC's biz not so good as there are more office workers' crowd instead of the youngsters but weekends I think should be OK. I think NU Sentral is a good meeting place as you can take all public transport to go there - LRT, KTM, ERL, Monorail & Rapid KL buses - biz should be picking up soon.

This is the -ve point for Empire I think, w/o the cinema but since Subang Parade is next door, it's OK as ppl can walk over for movies.

With Summit struggling for biz, I wonder whether GSC will move next door to Damen?

No time to go all the way there on the weekends la bro!

Jam or no jam, ppl will still go to Damen la bro since it is a brand new mall!

Just look at MV, does the jam deter ppl from going there? Most ppl dont really mind the jam there if it's a good place to relax, window shop & c leng luis!

Correct bro, this is the main motivation factor to go to Damen!

Bro, on weekdays the jam at the traffic light next to Giant is already very bad, I cant imagine the jams on weekends when Damen is opened!

If the entrance/exit to Damen is via Kewajipan maybe nt so bad, if it's at the back then

If I'm nt wrong, the KESAS concessionaire objected to the building of the exit because they claimed many motorists will use it to bypass the toll! True bro?
