If one observes SUKA's construction progress at Ala Damai, it is still half baked. Not all concrete are fully joined as of last week. Not sure how SUKA can help ConNaughty sales

Mayland is our hope here. Annex, MR, MM, CA, CO, Aster totalling around 7-8k units around this station, but it is hard for mall or big commercial  area to survive given Ekocheras, leisure mall, youcity 3, emerald 9, tmn segar, tmn connaught commercials are just nearby.
I think Mayland will make the number to 10k and hopefully the shops can be filled up. Too many commercial here wont be able to do well.

Kesian the ppl staying in len seng and further inside. It's a nightmare to go in and out using this access

who is Mayland? the owner of cheras sentral ?
*
lol mayland

totally joke

cheras sentral has been proven a failure

weird layout (some layout of original mall has been cut to become hotel)

summore basement is another world

no telco signal at all

3 supermarkets killed in basement (jaya grocer > hero market > skm mart)

Better they demolish it or some college buy it and become uni/college

one of the floors was converted into an international school. Its called Kensington or something.

But I hold the same opinion, it should've been either demolished long time ago for a TOD condo or converted into office. Not sure why they keep trying to revive it. It's use was unproductive for a very long time.

Its not enough to compete as a mall (because who would come here when Sunway Velo, EkoCheras and Leisure Mall is so near) but it is very valuable as a TOD project.

QUOTE(Jason @ Jul 29 2024, 03:35 PM)
Mall revival is possible, if the management is realistic about it. Citta Mall is a prime example done right, when Empire Subang & Sunway Pyramid is just there.

Not to be a full fledged mall, but a neighbourhood mall people come for hair cut, F&B, groceries, child care, music class etc.

as someone that stayed in this area for more than 2 decades, i can say that they will never succeed no matter how many times they try unless major changes are made.

The entire layout of Cheras Sentral is filled with weird and tight road turns and terrible traffic flow. Not to mention, the parking itself is terribly designed that have 2 different parking sections which can be very confusing for first-timers. The fact that they're not pulling in both tenants and customers even after MRT is up says alot.

Anyone buying and staying here in Connaught One is better off going to Leisure Mall / Eko Cheras, Pavillion or TRX in the same mrt line.

Neighbourhood Malls in that particular area, ppl will rather go to Aeon Cheras Selatan or AEON BiG Hypermarket Tun Hussein Onn.

QUOTE(Fat3Twister @ Jul 29 2024, 11:56 PM)
The main challenge to revive the mall or to redevelop it is that most of the retails in the mall were sold to different individuals. Unless Mayland can buy over all the units from the individuals, else most likely it will remain what it is

when they turn it into cheras central, they cut the original phoenix plaza into 2

1 cheras sentral 1 hotel

thats why u see there are big pillar in front of shoplot

this is bad fengshui as the pillar already covered the shoplot, patrons wont able to see the shoplot

dont get me started with the basement floor, totally no telco connectivity at all, it's alike u enter another world

CRAP

basement supermarket floor is pathetic, how many supermarket DEAD here?

-Jaya grocer
-Hero Mart
-SKM Mart

RETAIL THAT HAS BEEN PULLOUT (BASED ON MY MEMORIES):

-G2000
-MPH bookstore
-Cotton on
-Uniqlo
-Starbucks
- Kenny Rogers
etc

suprisingly parking is doing well,

coz the management rent to used car seller Cassa auto


the entrance and exit to the mall one big problem



conclusion, better demolish once and for all and rebuild instead of endless reviving

one of the (2?) remaining chains there finally left Cheras Sentral. Not sure why they stayed for so long - maybe business was enough to stay afloat until recently. Or lease finally up.

I believe TGV is the only major chain remaining now operating retail business in the mall.

Of all places they could establish in Cheras now, they decided on Cheras Sentral??

If still want to do Cheras Sentral, atleast wait until Connaught One already VPed la, wtf is this strategy.

Existing condos also likely not gonna shop there when there is Memi ZoooZooo nearby doing well.

The Condo project looks nice on a higher piece of land. But the shopping mall in-front of the condo, needs to bring in new tenant to be vibrant, perhaps Universities/Colleges, etc. The parking design is also said to be confusing.

useless

the issue started from the M developer sliced the OG phoenix plaza into cheras sentral and hotel

weird layout, big pillar in front of shoplot

have u ever seen big pillar in front of shoplot? the pillar hides the shoplot from people's view

also, LG floor is telco dead spot

once u enter, u just go into another world laugh.gif laugh.gif

also exit and entrance out of nowhere

got MRT also dead, no chance

solution? buy the entire land, abolish once and for all

Not easy to tear down the mall as most of the shoplots are sold separately to different owners. Best solution is still to refurbish the mall where all the owner's financial interest is aligned.

Since it will be a golden location in future with so many people living in that area.

no chance,

layout is shit

if u can the move the main pillars then baru talk

tell UEM takeover the cheras sentral baru talk
