Not sure.

Entrance is at different location though!

Need to wait for a couple of months I guess.

Jusco supermarket still operating.

Malaysia = hot like hell, so mall = heaven

i heard they are building another Wing? and rumours says once completed it will be bigger than midvalley?

i love OU, hoyeah hoyeah

eh i tot they are oso renovating, last i was there they had a clearance sale

i hate OU..no public transport can reach there easily..

Jusco Department Store do not operate at the moment, while supermarket operation is remains open.

new TGV yey

ic ic

If you have One Card, your life will be easier as One Utama offers special bus for members.

For those who live in KL, can take U 82 from KL Sentral.

Those from Metro Prima Kepong, take U 86.

nearby my coll..well..i dunno abt the rumours of it bigger den MV...but i dun think it will be any bigger..

is the new MRT gonna pass 1U?

Proposed MRT has a station near 1U.

u86 piss me off a lot

slow!!!!

From my experience, frequency of U82 is better than U86.

they said u86 only have 4 bus

last one breakdown i wait till 8 pm at the curve baru datang

fucuk dem...last few days i wan go popular at there but kolos..waste my time

The last time I went to 1U it was like a dead place. Really got people go there that they have to renovate like this?

are u sure u go 1Utama?

Aiyo jam giler going to happen again when re-open.

I'm sure. Most empty place..Even IKEA got more people that day since I went Ikea later at 6.

Bad transport, feeder lines kantoi

yeah 1U sucks because access of public transportation sucks.

beside lack of public transport....
parking another major problem coz now its share its parking area with IBM and etc.....

yeah rather than ou i prefer bts , but my moms like it bcuz not to crowded with those remaja baru nak up

i like One U though, crowd there seem less "lala", more like normal ppl...

everyday also go old wings . . .

Parking at OU is the best lar... Park at the open car park...cheaper and so far no need to go round and round finding parking space..
I have never seen that open car park really full before

That is the good thing about not so good public transportation/...
(may be they did it purposely)
You surely will get less "lala" and ppl lepak unlike Timesquare...

yes, not so crowded like midvalley, bts

and even one U are not crowded by human, it is still full of ppl during weekend yet will not make me suffocate like midvalley/bts (nightmare during weekend, human traffic jam)

Is the reno external facelift only? Or they're redoing the inside as well?

1u upgrades to pave way for anticipated LRT station. hahaha

There might even be a casino inside hahaha...

wait wait wait.....same thing.....LOL..dunno reno what.

ini mesti pergi time masa raya hari pertama....

I don't think 1 U is that empty, really.

the crowd is at the right amount...not overcrowded like midvalley/bts

which make the shopping in the One U is more comfortable/relaxing compared to midvalley/bts

True, but I prefer Mid Valley because of food.

The Old Wing is nearly 16 years old and renovation is overdue. It wasn't renovated before this as it was managed by AEON (Jusco) but BUCC has taken over the management and now the entire 1U is under one management instead of 2 separate managements before this.

The renovation at the end of the Old Wing involves demolishing walls to make way for Jusco to relocate from its old location to the end of the Old Wing (known as Courtyard). Basically Jusco will occupy the Courtyard section with the departmental store occupying first & 2nd floor, supermarket will relocate from its current location and occupy the Ground floor while Arena food court at the Lower Ground floor at Courtyard section. From information I got, Jusco will be back in full operations in August!

There will be some new shops & also some old shops relocating & renovating around the Old Wing (some have relocated to New Wing).

Btw, there is an updated floor plan of 1U Old Wing if you have an iPhone/iPad and install the "1 Utama" app on it. Jusco will be located at LG125, G125, F125 & S125.

Thanks for the pointers

reopen august 2011..ouuuuuuu i love youuuuuuu

August 2011 reopening is Jusco.

Some other tenants like Popular, Toys 'R Us, etc if not mistaken will reopen earlier, probably June or July.

1u premium parking...syok...........

Midvalley? Go die pls

whuuuuuuuut, been away for 2 months for college and this changes?? walaoooooooooooo

1 Utama management has put up buntings around the Old Wing announcing their tenants at the Old Wing (some of them are already operating at this moment)

These are some notable tenants, just to name a few:

1. JUSCO Departmental Store & Supermarket - it will occupy 4 levels (LG125, G125, F125 & S125)
2. UNIQLO *new*
3. Toys 'R Us
4. Popular
5. Padini Authentics
6. Esprit
7. J. Co Donuts *new*
8. Krispy Kreme *new*
9. Poh Kong
10. Levi's

Added on May 16, 2011, 3:33 pmNice.... Is TGV operating?

Uniqlo!

tgv is upgrading as well ... probably will be better than gsc d.... but price i can comfirm is higher than gsc ...

big also no use. not enough car parking.

they already supply outdoor parking .. yet ppl like me and everyone else still don't want to utilize it. Dun blame them, Blame ourself.

go apply one card and use the priority parking la .

Its good to have competition. This will eventually compel GSC to upgrade since 1U is one of the important locations for GSC besides Mid Valley & Pavilion.

With Jusco & Uniqlo there, I believe Parkson will be affected in terms of sales figure.

Blame the HOT weather!

tis happen few month ago..~.~
car park...err...is like tht lo...
saturday and sunday u find a single parking need some time...
traffic jam..confirm..
public transport?? i dunno..never take...i go there by car...

on a random note. if you guys working in ONE U. go to old wing G floor food square for nice cheap malay food. so worth it.

you don't like can go cold storage got promotion after 5. rm 2 can buy 2 pack of nasi lemak.

One thing that turn me away from going Mid Valley - TRAFFIC JAM!!!

That's why I prefer to take bus or KTM.

Bus is very accessible, because a number of RapidKL buses from western Klang Valley somehow stop at Jalan Syed Putra, a short walk from Mid Valley.

For ONECARD holders, the Old Wing preferred parking at LG Floor (only on weekends & public holidays) have lots of empty place! I went there this morning and I was the 2nd car there. When I left around 2pm, still lots of place there.

This will go on at least until Jusco reopens... then you can probably see the crowd again!

i miss going to OU, sure go there lepak everytime got long break in between classes during college time....i find it much more comfortable than Mid V or pavilion for that matter....besides, i take the penchala link, then i'm home free...gosh, i do miss M'sia...

one card first 6 hours rm1?

If you use your ONECARD to enter the normal parking areas, yes still RM 1 for first 6 hours and RM 2 for every subsequent hour.

Only if you enter the PREFERRED PARKING (you need ONECARD for this) then its RM 2 for first 6 hours and RM 3 for every subsequent hour.

Please remember you need minimum RM5 balance in ONECARD to use it to enter any car park in 1U.

I got UNOFFICIAL info that Jusco 1U reopening tentatively on 22 August 2011.

Old Wing become New Wing,

New Wing become Old Wing.



Btw when this renovation finish anyone?

Yes, the Old Wing is starting to look so new & fresh compared to the New Wing. Their new glossy & shiny floor tiles there really gives you a different feel.

Renovation finish? I am not sure, but probably by year-end, since the renovation is done in stages without closing the entire Old Wing. The way I see it I don't think the entire renovation will complete by the time Jusco reopens on August 22.

But currently, the site of the former Jusco dept store is already opened up and renovation is almost complete. On the Level G, it leads to a back entrance with a taxi stand while on Level 2, it leads to a skybridge that links to 1 First Avenue office tower. Some tenant shops area already starting to begin their own renovations and will open soon.

At the new site for Jusco, as of today the workers are busy fitting new floor tiles. Jusco will occupy 4 levels.
LG - Arena Food Court (this was where the Eneos Car Centre located previously)
G - Supermarket, AEON Wellness (pharmacy), La Boheme (Bakery), Delicateseen
1 & 2 - Departmental Store - common sense will tell you the men's & women's depts would occupy Level 1 while electrical, kitchen, bedding, furniture depts would occupy Level 2.

The renovations has also started to move to the Centre Court area. Floor tiles are in the process of being replaced. The Old Wing Customer Service Counter is also undergoing renovation. Some tenant shops are also renovating & relocating.

Currently Jusco Supermarket and Delicateseen + La Boheme are still open at their present location. The Delicateseen + La Boheme area is already partially closed and will be fully closed by end of June for renovation works leaving only the Supermarket to continue operating until just before the reopening where they will move to their new location.

What bout Action City? It closed when I came back from Aussie.

ya lo
last time got action city in garden and OU
now OU action city gone jor

but i heard got action city in Japanese Street
might go visit later
now very busy...
haih

I just came back from overseas. It is advisable to go 1U now? Alot of shops closed? Easy to find parking on weekend? Which sections should I go? Last time before reno also I can't walk the whole mall. Now it's even bigger will die trying to cover the whole mall.

1 Utama is not that big

faster re-open la.. now go there walk talak syiok wei...

Just now I saw a few lorries - SHOE suppliers - transporting shoes into the deparmental store.

common lar.. there is outdoor car park...and cheapest of ALL.. rm1 per ENTRY...i go genting park my car there, and take bus to genting...FANTASTIC
One Utama is probably the only shopping mall in malaysia which dun have problem in parking.....
It is always plenty of parking space available.. close one eye also can find...

Next month, new rate

will it able to finish b4 november?i wan go there shopping

Heard that renovation is targeted to complete by November.

But since Jusco is reopening on 22 August, you don't have to wait till November.

Has it opened as scheduled on 22/8??

yes with promotions in Jusco.

Yay, time for shopping

Do you recommend me to go shopping there this weekend. I've got choice between here and Midvalley.

Hard to give my opinion.

However, I would like to say that Jusco in 1 Utama has several stalls inside.

The Delica section is much larger.

Other than that, up to you

Actually I've been craving for pastry and other good Malaysian food. That day also I go Sunway the pastry all looks quite terrible. I went to Subang Parade and there is no pastry there. I ate at some nyonya restaurant. It was nice but I have stomach ache until now. (Has to be from the restaurant cause I ate both lunch and dinner there, didn't eat breakfast that day).

I like the breadshop in Isetan at KLCC, but I don't want to drive there.

I know in Midvalley at least got alot of shops and still got Garden if I wan some fancier stuff. But I don't know what's open in 1U now that they're doing renovation and shifting.

Why not visit Jusco 1 Utama since it is new?

After all, you always go to MV.

Note : I always go to KL often despite in BU area

That said, if we compare Jusco in MV or Jusco in 1U, Jusco in 1U is better.

the new wing has opened ?

The only plus point for Jusco Mid Valley is the size of the departmental store, is super big, bigger than 1U.

But they only have a few food stalls outside the supermarket, unlike in 1U, you got a huge delica section. Besides, there is no Arena food court in Mid Valley.

The New WIng is always opened since it is opened 8 years ago

What I am curious of how much does the Jusco Mid Valley generate (in terms of revenue)...

I believe Jusco Mid Valley should be one of the top.

midvalley is so jam @.@

Dari end of new wing walk until the other end of old wing boleh mampos jauh giler..

5 minutes for me.

Both got bad traffic during peak hour. But I rather park in new wing if i go to 1U

Or One World Hotel

U lari pecut ke? i think its really far.. I mean from the very end to the other very end.. So normally stay in one wing only..

I just walk fast, not sprint.

My calculation is from Subway 1 Utama to Jusco 1 Utama.

Yeah.. Did that once looking for a shop with my friend while carrying a laptop.. After reaching old wing i asked my friend if we could grab a cab back to old wing coz we had our car parked at the new wing.. Kena maki kaw kaw

Don't really like it there since most of the time I come from Kepong direction. To go to One World I have to go around the old wing, it's usually jam packed there. What I normally do (during peak hour) is to go down the traffic light (the one people always make U turn from OU to go back to Kelana Jaya) and go directly to New Wing.

5 minutes normal walk from the GSC escalator to old KFC.

A taxi ride between the wings is not worth it.

Walk.

I wouldn't mind to walk between the wings for a number of times, as I always do.
