Mega shopping mall in Nanxiang open for business
Shanghai Nanxiang Incity Mega shopping center, one of the city’s largest retail developments with an area of 340,000 square meters, has opened in Jiading.
Its total investment exceeded 3 billion yuan (US$433 million), according to SCPG, the retail property development and operation platform of China Vanke Co.
Its opening delayed due to the COVID-19, but 95 percent of its space has already been leased.
Of over 400 brands, around 40 percent made their debut in the Shanghai market.
On the same day, the Chenxiang Highway Station of Metro Line 11 opened to public down the shopping center. The above-ground station is between Malu and Nanxiang stations in the district.
It’s the first Metro station in the city being built on a line already running without affecting daily operations. The station will decentralize the densely populated part of Nanxiang Town.
The shopping center is connected to Exit 3 of Chenxiang Highway Station via an overpass. There’s also a transport hub beside the Metro station.
Residents purchase mooncakes at the Nanxiang Incity Mega shopping center as the Mid-Autumn Festival is around the corner. Mooncakes are must-eat food during the festival, as its round shape has the meaning of reunion in Chinese.
