Orchard Gateway is a shopping mall in Orchard Road, Singapore, connecting Orchard Central and 313 @ Somerset together. The mall was meant to be completed in November 2013, but was delayed and officially opened on April 26, 2014It was built on the site of the former Specialists Shopping Centre and Orchard Emerald.
The mall is part of an integrated development which includes a hotel and an office tower. The hotel is built above the mall and the office tower is built above Orchard Gateway@Emerald, another shopping mall located opposite Orchard Gateway. The hotel consists of 500 rooms and is linked to the office tower by a glass tubular overhead bridge.
Announced on March 21, 2012, the integrated development is jointly developed by Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation, Far East Organization, United Engineers Limited. Developed on land previously occupied by Specialists' Shopping Centre, Phoenix Hotel and Orchard Emerald, the mall with 180,000 square feet of retail space over 6 levels (including the 2 basement levels) houses both local and international lifestyle brands. It is also well connected to the shopping belt of Orchard Road via the glass overhead bridge, an underpass across Orchard Road and inter-mall walkthroughs.
The mall has secured international brands such as Crate & Barrel, Religion, Swatch Megastore, Nike’s new concept stall called Amplify Women’s and a NLB library, library@Orchard as tenants. Other tenants include I.T, J.Lindeberg and Red Wing Shoes. American furniture retailer, Crate & Barrel occupies over 3 levels of retail space as the anchor tenant of the shopping mall.
Orchard Gateway is also a sustainable building as it is able to harness bio-gas from compositing food waste to produce electricity, it also has a car-park guidance system that leads motorists to the nearest parking lot to reduce exhaust emissions and also features ultraviolet emitters in air-handling units to improve air quality in the F&B areas of the mall.
