Pondok Indah Mall

Pondok Indah Mall (Indonesian: Mal Pondok Indah) or PIM is a large shopping complex located in Pondok Indah suburb of South Jakarta, Indonesia. The Pondok Indah Mall, or referred to by Jakartans by its acronym: "PIM" complex: is actually three large malls, the older 3-storey PIM1 and the newer 5-storey PIM2, interconnected via a two elevated multi-storey pedestrian walkways (Skywalk North and Skywalk South) which also are tenanted by speciality shops. PM 3, which is now under construction, is connected with other two by underpass. In January 2017, Forbes recognised Pondok Indah Mall as one of the top five shopping malls in Jakarta.
In addition, PIM houses two cinema complexes on each building, both malls connected externally via walkway and an open-air water theme park was located near PIM 1, right behind Street Gallery. Unlike PIM 1, PIM 2 more focused on upper class aficionados. There are three office towers, and another one is now under construction, which is expected to be completed by 2020. InterContinental Jakarta Pondok Indah Hotel & Residences comprises approximately 300 hotel rooms and 180 serviced residences, which also adjoins the Pondok Indah Mall 2. Along with malls, office buildings and hotel the complex is termed as Pondonk Indah Town Center.
The architectural style was understated elegant conventional mall, with flooring continually updated until its present condition of polished Indonesian marble and granite. The architecture roughly imitated Dutch colonial large-scale warehouses with extensive steel-truss interpretation of Dutch structural timber-work for an innovative illuminating central skylight (double-glazed for minimising heat transfer) and featured three airy floors of shopping with a narrow open-floor gallery (made safe via decorative fencing). The exterior featured aluminium cladding for minimal maintenance in the harsh tropical climate.
