According to wikipedia, batu tiga was mistaken under shah alam because there was no direct road link to subang previously even though under subang....

Sjr, what unit type u bought?
U buy becoz U were from sj? Am quite nervous about this given d price we went in...
*
I bought the smallest type-studio unit in Paloma (Initially i plan for type B, but later changed my mind, want to reserve more cash flow to myself)...
I am not from sj, nor kv area. But I plan to move here in maybe 2-3 years later... the unit should have been completed or near completed by then...

But for D same $ u could consider other place? Ie. bukit jalil or north kiara?
*
For North kiara, I am a bit concerned on the nearby traffic, especially Jalan Duta. Plus, there is virtually nothing there. Public transport here is painful right?
Bukit Jalil is a good place, but to me is slightly far...

I am a lazy person. Lazy to drive...
The whole concept of Metropark suits me. Got shops, got mall, got park, got medical centre...
More importantly, I don't need to get myself stuck in traffic jams during weekend, yet still can wonder around...

i wonder if this is the land facing the condo..

Tropicana Corp Bhd, via its wholly-owned subsidiary Tropicana Subang
South Development Sdn Bhd (TSSD), is disposing a piece of freehold land in
Subang Jaya for RM37.55m. In a filing with Bursa Malaysia yesterday, it said
that TSSD had entered into a sale and purchase agreement with Mediaraya Sdn
Bhd, to dispose the land measuring 9,968 sq meters (107,294.65 sq ft) at
RM350 per sq ft. The company expects to make a gain of RM3.7m from the
disposal and the net proceeds will be used for the working capital and/or
repayment of bank borrowings of Tropicana and its group of companies. (The
Sun)

I doubt that. I remembered the sales person told me that the land the condo is facing is owned by bank Negara.

What's brt?

bus rapid transit.
The idea comes from lrt/mrt. The bus goes on a special lane that only allows bus to go through.
Compared to LRT/MRT, it is much cheaper in terms of construction and maintenance expenses.

Lol i think metropark ppl too rich fr BRT leh.. got ktm nearby d. KTM is defo btr than the proposed BRT.. they shldnt build d BRT as it might overlap with the LRT in d long run... More frequent n direct bus routes will serve the ppl btr..
*
KTM is like @#$%#@$%# to me... The company definite needs to increase the train frequency and upgrade their service.
I'm not rich, so I still need BRT or some other means. So far, Tropicana Corp is unable to bring public transports into their projects so well.
btw, is there LRT passing by? I thought it goes to Glenmarie instead.

This project seems quiet now. Let's see what magic Tropicana can do to boost it up further:)

Think the other way.
If a project become quiet, it can mean most of the units were sold out.
In fact, I'll be worried if Tropicana still keeps on advertising Pandora/Paloma.
One good example is D'latour of DK Group. I have been seeing its road show since 3 years ago. Few weeks ago I still saw one in Penang.

I feel you bro.haha..always been judge like that but really this metropark it is expensive product..congratz..

Wondering how is the phase 3 looks like..
*
Next it should be commercials/office blocks, then only the other phases of residential and lastly the mall.
As far as I know, it will take up almost 10 years to complete the whole plan.

This is not cheap! At the affordable pricing but high in psf for a small unit.
Btw this flexisuite will be next to Paloma??

This is called affordable luxurious home... I think the trend will be like this for the next few years...

Ok, was told by SA the development will be direct opposite of Paloma. It will sit on commercial phase.
Launching around July. Not much detail yet.

So it is soho/sovo? Then it shouldn't be called affordable lo...

Any confirmed news that the KTM will relocate here?

Forget about the relocation. They will only consider after the whole metropark project completed and only if they still have extra money left.
Alternate hope is the brt which run along the federal highway and might stop here.

Yeap guessed so as well.. BRT not really usefull la as it will overlap with Shah Alam LRT flex.gif  flex.gif Any details of the next phase in metropark? i tot there will be some flexisuites/affordable housing or something??

This metropark looks sibeh nice ler.. Good place for ownstay if ok with the area la..
*
Shah Alam line doesn't serve this area, Subang and all the way to central market. I think BRT still has some stand here. And I think at least it does boost ktm during peak hours. Other than that I really don't know what's the purpose of this.
I postulate they will set a stop in front of UH, Kl sentral and few stations before it ends at central market.

The so called affordable, are all small areas, are SOHO/SOFO... I guess they are all in offices/commercial areas. So far I haven't heard of any residentials after Paloma. If not, they definitely will put out banners everywhere.

sorry, what I meant is any idea when the foundation and pilling will be completed where we need to pay stage 2(a) ? I think Paloma's progess is really slow if compared to Pandora.

Exactly...
My MLTA offer for my loan was seized due to not claimed. And I had to reapply again... sad.gif

I think Subang needed a big enough mall like the one planned at TMP to cater for the populations leisure. Something that can bring the product brand of 1 Utama & Mid Valley type with all the choices of dining available. Empire, Subang Parade does not have the potential to be a big enough competitor when such a big mall come in place.
Success of a shopping mall depends on location, many choices of brands for shopping, many dining choices and a good management of the mall. A Central Park will mostly cater for residents or nearby residence & workers in the same vicinity to enjoy the facilities after work or on weekends. It will not attract outsiders much.
I would think if the shopping mall is properly managed, it will be a good  thing for Subang.
*
The shopping mall in metro park master plan doesn't look big...
The issue here is, the possible tenant supermarket here is limited. Aeon, aeon big, tesco, giant, cold storage etc all already have their stores opened in nearby area.
In short, Tropicana need a good theme when developing the mall.
