Entertainment mall in progress


LDP view


Can see that architectural works on buildings 7788 already, believe they are working on infra and landscaping works now.. Think target opening on April 2011 can be achieved

Btw, any news on the hotel operator and chinese retaurant? Any chance the restaurant might be KLT? Coz the boss is present during the anchor signing ceremony last Nov (i see from facebook )..

SW targeted to open on April this year... not sure abt SS.

Thanks ET..finally a clear photo of Trigon

Frankly i think it's alright.. beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. Some ppl like "homey" look, some ppl like modern office-like look.

Yes, it might be the most expensive launch in Puchong now, but who knows, when Naza launches its iconic Catalyst down the corner, there's potential for the price to go up.

Got.. next to LDP toll after Rakan Muda on Puchong Intan side.. http://www.theedgeproperty.com/news-a-view...ure-talent.html

Facing north higher floors will have nice view of water features.. will look nice at night. But lower floors might hv limited view due to the entertainment centre.

Facing east will have forest, bdr puteri view and sunrise, but facing higher elevation ..

Facing south will have expansive view of the low lands following the flow of Klang River.. but some units might be partially blocked by PFCC.

Facing west will have lake and LDP view.. but afternoon sun and noise

Wow...thanks for the pics! Looks damn nice...hope the retails will be successful!

SetiaWalk... 4300 parking lots provided, more than sufficient i guess. As for open concept, not really that hard to accept, just take a que from the Walk @Curve.. But during rainy season, will get abit wet

From other forum, retailers can go in for ID works after end of April... So, probably will open somewhere in June i think..

Added on March 31, 2011, 3:01 amCriss-crossing from vehicles going into SW main entrance and vehicles coming out from Persiaran Wawasan will be BIG BIG headache. Read that SPS has planned for traffic light for vehicles going into SW and vehicles coming out from Persiaran Wawasan to avoid criss-crossing. Dunno how that will actually panned out or helped the traffic till implemented...

Agreed... AFAIK some retailers that will open business in SW are from existing shops around Bdr Puteri, etc.... They simply relocate from exisiting premise to SW due to they foresee that SW will be the happening place in Puchong, not to mention better facilities, parking spaces, ambience, and name pride. Strictly talking about the Golden Mile, IOI Mall has improved in terms of retail quality but still lacks the oomph factor, it's so plain... the aircond is very cool though . IOI Boulevard is the happening place currently with many eateries and the two pubs, lots of young adults hang out there after work. However, it lacks the size advantage of SW and of course TGV. PFCC is mainly A grade office with a podium (under construction), but most probably it will be something like IOI Boulevard, serving the office work force above. Therefore, yes, I am also optimistic on SW being successful ..

The way i see it, SW will be a great place for families to hang out at day time and and working adults to chill at night time. I believe some parts of the water features are designed for children to play, but how many parents actually allow their kids to play till all wet is another question. SW's open concept might be an unpleasant thought considering our hot, humid and wet weather, gotta experience the real thing before deciding it's bad or not. But sure it's a good change than just another air-conditioned shopping box.

Once the foot fall in SW is high, business for the retailers will fall into place.

SW never intended to be positioned in the same league as KLCC and Mt Kiara, as u said it, different demographics. Rather, it is envisioned to be THE place for Puchongites and the immediate surrounding. So you can say SW will be higher end in relative to existing Puchong retail developments.

For me, Midvalley also nothing special, only big, but still so successful

Just an example... not comparing SW to Midvalley..

More SW pics uploaded by the leasing team... http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1...&closeTheater=1

Should be Solace, since only Solace have 2 balconies for Type A..

Depends on how u define a "mall".. but SW will have F&B, cinema, karaoke, gym, apparel shopping outlets, spa, retail outlets, etc etc... So, it sounds like a mall but not in the conventional mall format..

Added on June 25, 2011, 12:44 pmIOI Mall is big enough with the new wing.. The future M City in Puchong Perdana will have a mall connected to the Hilton brand hotel too.. something different like SW will be good for Puchong, just as PJ has Sunway Giza and SJ has Empire Subang..
