- Cash & Carry: everyday essentials on the Lower Ground level.
- Pharmacy: access to medicines and healthcare products.

- Mall escalators and capsule lift: movement between retail levels.
The website does not name tenants or operating hours, so confirm those with the team.
Apartments and Residential Convenience

The website lists courtyard apartments, one-bedroom apartments and studios, service apartments and six penthouses. Sizes, prices and availability belong to the official inventory and sales team, so this overview leaves them out. Residential facilities listed include:

Listed infrastructure includes EV charging points, helipad provision, high-speed internet and security and emergency systems. Together, these facilities aim to serve families, people seeking relaxation, business meetings and social occasions.
What Makes a Mixed-Use Development Convenient?
Shops close to home shorten routine trips. Shared spaces such as atriums, gardens and lounges give people places to meet. Meeting rooms and halls let work and celebrations happen without leaving the building. The trade-offs are real: shared buildings mean shared crowds, rules and service costs.
Rental income, resale values and appreciation depend on market conditions and cannot be promised. A well-equipped building does not guarantee demand for any individual unit. Evaluate unit details, pricing, documentation, location and terms independently before you decide.
