Overview edit

Pavilion Damansara Heights is the third mall under the Kuala Lumpur Pavilion brand, which has been operating its flagship Pavilion Kuala Lumpur shopping mall in the Bukit Bintang district as well as Pavilion Bukit Jalil in southern Kuala Lumpur.

It was built as an integrated mixed development on the former site of the Damansara Town Centre complex. The commercial site used to include a number of government headquarters and departments before it was demolished. It was earmarked for a major redevelopment, with deals to acquire the land from Bukit Damansara Development Sdn Bhd through its parent company Damansara Assets Sdn Bhd, a property arm of state-owned Johor Corporation (JCorp).[3][4]

The whole development is currently being undertaken by Tan Sri Lim Siew Choon's Pavilion Group and Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPP Investments) through a 49% joint-venture stake.[5][6] The plot is 15.84 acres (6.41 ha), with Phase 1 consisting of 9.5 acres while Phase 2 consisting of 6.34 acres.[7] Both phases of the site were developed by Impian Ekspresi Sdn Bhd and Jendela Mayang Sdn Bhd respectively.[8][9]

Master plan edit

This complex also features 5 residential blocks, 10 office towers, a 5-star hotel and an event gallery within the retail complex.[10] The retail component of Pavilion Damansara Heights is built in 2 stages, Phase 1 and Phase 2, across 6 levels.[11] The mall was officially opened on 9 October 2023 as part of Phase 1 of the development, while Phase 2 will be followed after.[12][13]

Accessibility edit

The mall is connected to the  KG13  Pusat Bandar Damansara MRT station of the Kajang Line.[14] Since October 2023, a temporary walkway was built to facilitate the link between the mall and the station. Commuters will have to exit at Entrance B of the station and access the ground level via the elevator at the end of the bridge, and walk for 5 minutes along the sidewalk to reach the basement level of the shopping mall. In the future, it will be directly connected to the mall's pedestrian overhead bridge located on Level 2 as part of the development's second phase.
