THE sleepy Serangoon district is getting a spanking new feature - a 55,740-sq-m mall to be located at Serangoon Central.

At a ground-breaking ceremony yesterday, developer Gold Ridge said the $1.3-billion mall is slated for completion in 2010.

It will be the centre of an integrated transport hub.

Mr Michael Leong, executive director of Guthrie Consultancy Services, which manages retail development at Serangoon Central, told my paper: "The north-east zone lacks a mall of such size that offers a comprehensive range of services."

The six-storey mall will be about 50 per cent bigger than Plaza Singapura. It will feature a 24-hour retail and food-and beverage zone. It will also have eco-friendly features, such as a landscaped sky terrace.
