Background
The development is currently the tenth largest building in the world by floor area and has also been tagged as the "world's largest building ever built in a single phase," with 700,000 m2 (7,500,000 sq ft) of built up floor area.[5] This building consists of a 19-storey shopping mall, business offices and leisure centre with over 1,000 retail shops, 1,200 luxury service suites, 65 food outlets and entertainment attractions such as the Berjaya Times Square Theme Park.[6]
In April 2005, Borders Group opened its first franchise store here, which was the largest Borders store in the world at the time. However, due to the 2010 economic downturn, it has since been downsized into a smaller operation called Borders Express. However in 2016, It was shut down permanently.[7]
History
Initially, the land belonged to the millionaire and philanthropist Cheong Yoke Choy before World War II. His bungalow stood there until the entire parcel of land was purchased by the Berjaya Group of Tan Sri Vincent Tan for the development of the current Berjaya Times Square.[8] In October 2003, it was opened by the 4th Prime Minister of Malaysia, Mahathir Mohamad.[9]
Transportation
The shopping centre is accessible within walking distance north of Imbi Station of KL Monorail and also southwest of Bukit Bintang MRT station.
