SINGAPORE : An upcoming mall in Serangoon Central, called nex, has leased out about 90 per cent of its space some nine months ahead of its official opening in November.

The mall's developer, Gold Ridge, said it has signed on the Serangoon Public Library as the newest anchor tenant at the complex.

The new public library will occupy about 17,000 square feet of space and is scheduled to open to the public in March 2011.

Other anchor tenants include Challenger, Cold Storage, Courts, and FairPrice Xtra.

With over 600,000 square feet of net lettable area over six storeys, nex will be the largest mall in northeast Singapore.

The mall is integrated with a new bus interchange and the Serangoon Interchange Station where the North East Line and the Circle Line converge.

The retail mix will extend to over 350 specialty shops offering international and local fashion brands, various apparel wear and home products. - CNA /ls
