The new look will include new ceilings and tiles, a repainted facade, upgraded lift lobbies, improved mall signage and new balustrades and lighting at the main atrium. The construction of a covered walkway has already started along the mall’s frontage on Jalan Sultan Ismail, and its completion will create a link with the covered walkway between Bukit Bintang’s shopping centres constructed by Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur.
Although the works are still in progress, you can still visit Sungei Wang Plaza to do your desired shopping, as there will be no closure of business. Since it first opened in 1977, this is only the second time the famous mall has undergone major refurbishment exercise.
The renovation of Sungei Wang Plaza started last November 2012 and is set to finish by end of this year.
Curious to see how the ‘new’ Sungei Wang Plaza will look like? Below are some artist impressions of the face-lift!
