Sunshine Plaza

Introduction

Sunshine Plaza is a Johnny come lately to the toy scene. This mall, adjoined to a service apartment is located at the fringe of the old city centre . With the impending gentrification of Clark Quay, Sunshine Plaza may become the Toy Medina when the retailers migrate from the Toy Mecca.

This building is well situated to be the next toys and collectibles boom town - its located close to the newly built campus of Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts and the city campus of the Singapore Management University. The students at these two institutions are likely to contribute to the youth market within the locality and the tenants at Sunshine Plaza will be ready to catch the wave.
