A NEW architecturally striking shopping and leisure complex is being built at Changi Airport in Singapore. Codenamed “Project Jewel”, the complex will be built on a 3.5ha site where the carpark in front of Terminal 1 now lies.
It is expected to open in 2018.
Built to link terminals one, two and three, it is being designed by a consortium of consultants led by architect Moshe Safdie.
The complex will have a glass and steel facade with a large indoor garden and a waterfall.
A new, multi-storey basement carpark will be built as part of the redevelopment and Terminal 1 will be expanded to allow more space for the arrival hall, baggage claim areas and
taxi bays.
The improvements will increase the terminals’ passenger handling capacity to 24 million a year.
