the mall is half dead

well, at least quill performs much better than the nearby putra mall on weekends/holidays.. parking is always full for P1 and P2 for quill while my fren always said putra is DEAD and empty even on weekends/holidays.. & tenants already starts to move out 1 by 1.. see the photo of putra digital centre

this mall is still new and i am sure tenants will move out after their contract end if it still doesnt perform well in a year or two. Anyway, this mall does not have much anchor client.

Nearby Sogo is much better if you want to compare.

Maybe i am too negative on this project. For those who are interested in this project, just dont buy it because of the mall. just my 2 cents

surprisingly putra which have condo, hotels, train station and offices nearby still perform WORSE than Quill .. and now putra tenants already starts to complain long time ago of their intention to move out if the biz doesnt improve at all:x

sogo always perform better because they always have SALES

With d never ending new property developments in d surrounding area n d endless choices, shopping around n comparing factors is inevitable but it will also set u back d opportunity to grab a good buy before u miss d boat. For me, two main factors, d next door mall n within reach of d monorail are wat attracted me to settle for d Colony, n I m not d least shaken by all those self-professed guru's negative comments of dis project lol:). After all if u r happy with it, go for it as u can't win them all n stop crying over spilt milk once u made up ur mind, or invest in more in other areas if u can afford to lol:)
Quill Mall has AEON as anchor tenant n d mall has d potential to do better than now with more new developments in d surrounding area. Compared to Sunway Putra Mall in an already matured locality n it's still not doing well despite well connected by public transport, u see large crowds only when there are events in PWTC. D FnB r doing fine there but retail businesses r sluggish as in most other malls. I shd know dat as I m there almost every other day lol.

well said! if tenants at Putra ONLY depends on pwtc crowd, then die la.. how long they are able to survive with the exorbitant rental of Putra?? Even TGV Putra suffers as well compared to GSC Quill which has much better crowd.

took this picture recently at TGV putra of which there were VERY few people even though there was home fair going on at PWTC on weekends

U r absolutely spot on there too...in fact looking at all malls nowadays, ppl r cutting down on spendings except one still gotto eat, albeit more economical FnB outlets. Las Vacas in Putra Mall is destined to close down anytime soon, on d best of days there r no more than a handful diners at d most, sad while their outlet in Mt Kiara r doing so well. TGV too is never able to pull in d crowds like GSC if they hv a choice lol.
All being said, d potential is there for Quill mall n I foresee d Colony shd b a good investment for tenanting out or wise choice for own stay for all d conveniences in d surrounding area...well I m happy n contented lol:)

Las Vacas at putra is really waiting to close shop but dont know when is it.. cant even see 1 customer at all every time i passed by the shop.. wonder how long they store their FOOD in freezer..

There are many other outlets at putra also dead as well such as bonia, nerl yard, braun buffel, barry smith (staff always sleeping inside the shop), all vanity halls outlets and also GHOST avenue outlets.. even Cottom On, uniqlo also hitting mosquitoes most of the time.. seriously

As mentioned earlier, retail bzness has been suffering since a year back, n Putra Mall is targeting d wrong crowd n Jln Ipoh/Sentul residents r low on spending power for luxury stuffs n fancy restaurants:(

this is chow kit.
avoid it unless you dont mind crime rate.

Don't talk through ur nose if unsure....which part of KL city is free of crime honestly? D whole country n people r sick to d core anyway.

Coming up nicely.
Progress as of April 23, 2016

this developer ok or not? there was another singapore developer that is supposed to complete this The Manhattan project in this year but until now like not even half way

Manhattan maincon is local boy Encorp and Encorp no money to continue so their contract terminated. It took them a long time to find a new one from China i think.

What about dis contractor?....good reputation? I hv no idea lol.

The developer is ok

Dis Developer has a reliable track record in Spore, however I m more concerned with d main contractor they appointed here....anyone any idea how good r they?

Cumin..what do u think of this Colony.. Is it a good buy
