Bishan | Junction 8 | Singapore | 4K

Junction 8 was completed and opened in November 1993 and officially opened on 22 January 1994 by Minister for Home Affairs Wong Kan Seng. Junction 8 was developed as a joint venture between Singapore Technologies Industrial Corporation (STIC) and Liang Court Holdings. When it first opened, it had 73 tenants, such as a Daimaru department store and supermarket, a Golden Village cineplex, Food Junction's first outlet, a duplex level SAFE Superstore and various specialty shops settling in a mall environment for the first time. In 2004, the mall had an expansion block expanded to accommodate more retail spaces and a linkbridge was built, connecting to the car park opposite the mall. Daimaru was replaced by NTUC FairPrice and Seiyu (now BHG) during the former's exit from Singapore in 2003. The roof garden was relocated from Level 2 to Level 3, equipped with a children's playground and an event plaza. Also, the office tower space was decanted into the retail mall, and was subsequently leased to voluntary welfare organisations. In 2013, it underwent a major renovation, repainting its exterior and refreshing the interior of the mall. The children's playground was also renovated. The mall's basement was connected to the southbound platform of Bishan MRT station.
