2017 Trouble
Only seven years after initial operation, the mall did not bring as much visitor traffic as expected and also due to competition from other malls in more favorable locations,the tenants within eventually dwindled, leading the owners to default and the property was handed back to banks. The remaining anchor, Ta Kiong Supermarket still operates within the mall and is the number one source of traffic for the entire mall, along with other vendors like Sugarbun, Mr.DIY and Watsons, but mall became pretty much deserted.
In 2019, the supermarket announced that it will be moving out, while Mr. DIY stayed within for a few more months before also moving out, and today the mall is now abandoned and empty.
