Suan Lum Night Bazaar
The developer of this project is the same owner of Suan Lum Night Bazaar, next to Lumpini Park in Bangkok. Due to the expired lease PCon Development (the owner of Suan Lum) is building this large scale mall and open air market. Some of the vendors of Suan Lum Night Bazaar will move to this new location. The landlord of the former location is the Crown Property Bureau which leased the land to Central Group.[3]
Ratchada Night Market
Already present at the new location, under the same developer, was the Ratchada Night Market. In 2010–2012, most vendors closed down to make way for the new construction of the mall and open-air market. Many relocated to the Train Night Market or Siam Gypsy Junction.
