New Buildings And Development Around Phuket

[IrishIvan]

Just up passed the heroins monument on the way to the airport. Left hand side. Anyone know what it is?

[IrishIvan]

Its very large. Looks like it could possibly be a home mart or something

[steelepulse]

It's a new Central Mall.

Sorry to Hijack - BUT what about the new Mosque -esqe looking place on the road from Patong to Kata?

Is it a restaurant? How the hell did they get permission to build that thing??

Oh wait.........

If it's what I think you are talking about, I thought that was an extension of the Centara Resort. Could be wrong.

[eezergood]

Not Centara, too far away - looks like a mosque ish kind of sort of

Also what are they errecting at the top of Bangla?

I think Centara owns all the land up to the road. Whatever it is they are spending a lot of money on the decor. But where will the visitors park ?

As I was told by the GM of Centara Villas (next door, almost) it is a private building and got nothing to do with Centara.

[IrishIvan]

I thought it was an indian restaurant near centara

Re: Erection on Bangla.

What end? Haven't been down in a few months. Is it the old Tiger Disco land?

[eezergood]

Nope - beach road end, looks like some kind of rigging that they use to hang lights on a stage?

[KarenBravo]

I think it's a mosque....

[hansgruber]

It's a damn spa.

Mosques and Indian restaurants. Jesus.

[KarenBravo]

Mosques are allowing spas on the premises now-a-days?

Does the imam know?

[eezergood]

Is waterboarding a treatment now?

[IrishIvan]

It's a damn spa.

Mosques and Indian restaurants. Jesus.

I definately thought it was either an indian restaurant or a very elaborate suit shop

Maybe there will be Indian women working in there, of course, all with work permits as "actresses" dancing like a swarmi, with some "private dance rooms" out the back. :)

Bollywood comes to Bangla. :)

THey film in Pattaya all the time

[LivinginKata]

Oh dear - off track already. Let's stay on 'New Buildings'.

[SeanPhuket]

It's a new Central Mall.

Is it? I saw that written on here before and have since come to the conclusion that even at this stage it doesn't seem to have any kind of floor plan like a shopping center. I thought it looks more wareshouse like, and a Big C type st most.

Where did you hear that? Would be great if it was correct, plus the new planned one opposite the existing one...

Yeah it looks like a bunnings or a giant garage. Im with you it doesnt even look close to a central

[eezergood]

Any word on the Bangla structure - not technically a building I know

[IrishIvan]

What about the old stunt show? There looks to be a bit of activity there

I have a rental house in the estate next to this and all the people in the housing estate are saying it's a Central.

[eezergood]

Lets hope they remember to have ample parking

Remains half demolished. No work going on there. Maybe you are thinking about that new white complex in front. Looks like some sort of resort or rental accommodation. Don't think it's open yet.

Just went past... it's looking more like a restaurant everyday!

[Aussiescott]

I drive past this "ominously looking mosque type ugly project" everyday and have watched its progression for the past 12 or so months..... I was thinking mosque, have you seen the barred doors at the front, doesn't look too inviting for a restaurant. If you go down and have a look at that resort from the beach its very Islamic type construction as well, with the domes etc..... Will be interested to see what it will be. I may stop next week and ask one of the guys building the project.

Cheers...
