thinkingman Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Anyone know what it is? it looks like a big project. Anyone know what it is? At one time Google maps showed this as a shopping center or Mall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGregor21 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Waiting for an update on this, I live very close by and no one ive spoken to locally knows. Id guess a hotel rather than a condo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bjrda77 Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 That piece of land owed by ”CP”, and many other plotts around 1000 rai in that area. The Icon Siam group is going to have a similar project as in BKK, the new family friendly Pattaya city! Hence, they don’t earn much money from the high speed train and they don’t draw the new high way no 7 there for nothing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rimmer Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Was informed a couple of days back they intend to build three L shape towers of different heights at an angle to the sea so they will all get a sea view. Understand CP and Cirque du Soleil are involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaver Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Surely a build like this would have to take into account the possibility casinos will be allowed here in the future and incorporate that into the design. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Lovethailandelite Posted February 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 1, 2020 First off, the new construction going in is nothing to do with Pattaya. It comes under Sattahip jurisdiction. If you want to see the plans, go to Sattahip City Hall. I will make it easy for you though. Two 57 storey Luxury Condo blocks, 2 hotels (1 a branded hotel, the other a 'Themed' hotel) plus the biggest Iconsiam shopping mall yet undertaken. That is the first phase. Plans for the second phase haven't yet been released. CP hold huge parcels of land in the area. This development has nothing whatsoever to do with the Marina Golden Bay development which comes under Pattaya jurisdiction and is being built in the area of Thepprasit rd 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe some big new builds, such as this one, if it goes ahead, has open floor plan design on some of the floors. No rooms on them. The lifts do not even stop on these floors. These whole floors are left ready for future fit out, and I believe it's for the possibility casinos will be allowed here in the future. Big builds like this are never full occupancy, so not developing a floor makes good sense. 8 hours ago, kinyara said: A massive empty unused space inside and a car park full of trucks loaded with fruit machines, roulette wheels and black jack tables poised to be unloaded if the law changes. Get real. Who said anything about car parks and trucks? You do have a vivid imagination. 8 hours ago, kinyara said: If you could ever post anything remotely factual to support your observations it might add a bit to the credibility of your posts. I don't seek credibility. I only seek discussion.

Nothing can be reliable upon here. Thailand operates in one big grey area, especially for farang. 8 hours ago, kinyara said: the only certainty being your constant spamming this forum to spin negativity on anything to do with Pattaya or Thailand in general. No spamming and negativity. Perhaps you could enlighten me on all the positives of the Pattaya local economy at the moment. I'll be kind and say, pre virus. While you are at it, tell me about the thriving businesses here, great infrastructure, good value cost of living for westerners, clean beaches and beach water, good roads, abundant water supply, easy and cheap visas, non racist locals, honest police, no dual pricing, and good governance etc. Nothing wrong with discussing Pattaya's shortfalls. They are the reason this has been a terrible high season, confirmed by senior Thai's in the tourism industry, through the media, which is rare.

Lovethailandelite Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 (edited) Should Casinos ever be allowed, there is no need to build a casino in Chonburi. There is already one built and has a room count now, since the new wing was completed last year, in the region of 6500 rooms. Another new wing has already started to be built. The place was built for that sole reason because back in the late 80's and early 90's, casinos were very close to happening in Thailand. Do your history on the Ambassador hotel and why it was built, who built it etc. It was at one time, the biggest hotel in the world. With the recently completed new wing and another under construction, it may well be the biggest hotel in the world again. Casino hotels don't want you leave and spend your money outside. Ambassador city has everything. Shops, night clubs, restaurants,huge parking etc. The casino wing is already there and has been locked off from day one. It's the only place outside of Bangkok in this area that would ever have a chance to become a casino.

So a 100 sqm condo will cost 6,000 Baht/month in maintenance fees? That's more than I pay in council tax back in the UK, daylight robbery! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's more than I pay in council tax back in the UK, daylight robbery! If they had 100 sqm units. The website lists a 2 bedroom 57 sqm unit as the largest available--unless you put 2 units together. 57 sqm units would have monthly maintenance fees of 3420 baht a month--or around $110 USA dollars. 60 baht a sqm maintenance is a high for Pattaya but a bargain compared with what I paid in America. 10 years ago I was paying $250 a month condo fees for a small 1 bedroom--plus property tax on top of that. Much cheaper here. Most new projects have monthly maintenance fees in the 50 baht/sqm range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
