Retail and Leisure: Mega Silk Way in Astana, Kazakhstan, on track to complete later this year

Steel work is complete and the majority of the roof is now in place with the whole scheme on track to complete later this year.

The 140.000m² GBA building is part of the site of the EXPO 2017 site in Astana, and is planned to be a commercial link under a shell roof from Nazarbayev University to the exhibition building of the EXPO. At the end next to the EXPO the building opens up to create a vast entertainment area.

The centre will include 210 shops, 24 restaurants, a food court, 10 cinemas including a IMAX screen, 2300 car spaces, and children’s entertainment area. A full scale Ferris wheel will also stand outside the building.

It is hoped that the building will act as an important route for EXPO visitors, and be a symbol of the EXPO after it is closed, as well as becoming the city’s major family attraction.
