Updates on Afro Asia Building

The Afro Asia Building was demolished in 2017 to be rebuilt and rebranded as Afro-Asia i-Mark Building. The new building will be 19 storeys tall and is expected to be completed in Q2 of 2020. It will offer Grade A office space. The new building is being jointly developed by Afro-Asia Shipping Co. and Shimizu Corp., and is estimated to cost S$320 million, with the former having majority stake in the joint venture.¹.

In November 2019, the joint developers inked a deal with hospitality-based co-working operator The Great Room to be the anchor tenant. The deal was brokered by its exclusive leasing agent, JLL. The Great Room will take up 37,000 sq ft of office space in the building, from the 6th to the 8th floor, which amounts to 26% of total nett lettable space in the new building, making it the largest of The Great Room's office space in Singapore.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
