Junction City offers a great potential for a first of a kind integrated development that reflects Yangon’s aspiration towards being one of the most liveable and charming cities in Southeast Asia. Located opposite the famous Bogyoke Market on a large plot in the centre of town, the development is also situated on the important trajectory of Shwedagon Pagoda Road and will form an iconic gateway to the city.
Developed in conjunction with an international team of consultants and joint venture partners, Junction City will be a catalytic development that infuses contemporary built forms and functions into the city centre, with commercial components and facilities including a hotel, convention centre, cinema and grade A office.
Junction City is also designed to take into consideration the physical relationship to adjacent significant sites such as Bogyoke Market, Holy Trinity Anglican Church and the sprawling Yangon General Hospital, ensuring that pedestrian and vehicular flows are optimised and view corridors are maintained and enhanced. Junction City will be an intricate tapestry of spaces and people, will become a new social gathering place for the people of Yangon and the preferred choice of stay for tourists and business travellers.
