Landmark Jakarta

In *The Billionaire Life* universe, Landmark Jakarta is an integrated superblock development located in Jakarta Central Business District of Jend. Sudirman street, right across BNI City. It is a well-known signature project of Henry Augustus Bakker-Smith's Great River Development.

Developed by Great River Developments and owned by its subsidiary Great River Malls REIT and its minority stakeholder Hankyu-Hanshin Properties Corp, the large superblock consists of Indonesia's new luxury shopping institution The Landmark Mall; Hypezone @ Landmark, a cyberpunk-themed entertainment centre integrated with The Landmark Mall; Landmark Twin Towers, one of the first office towers that is combined with data centres; Landmark Mansion, a luxury condominium; and two five-star hotels: The Jakarta EDITION Landmark, and Landmark Dai-Ichi Hotel Jakarta-The Luxury Collection.

Landmark Jakarta occupies the land that was previously owned by Ratu Sayang International and Summa Group, as well as the land that previously occupied by Wisma Indocement. Great River Development bought the land and the twin office towers Landmark Centre from both of them in 1998-1999, followed by the company's purchase of Ratu Plaza superblock, also from Ratu Sayang International in 2000. The whole Landmark Center was later torn down and dug in 2001-2002. Meanwhile, the Wisma Indocement building was bought in 2003 for IDR 160 billion and torn down in 2004-2005 following the last tenant's eviction.

Landmark Jakarta is the main residence of Great River Developments’ CEO Henry Augustus Bakker-Smith and his husband Alex Wijaya Bakker-Smith as well various ministers, conglomerates, dignitaries, ambassadors, and their respective families.

Landmark Jakarta is the first superblock to install eight-to-ten massive pendulums on the roof of the complex's high-rise buildings to counter long period ground motion. The pendulums will reduce magnitude of building motion by half or more during a major earthquake, such as the Great East Japan earthquake of 2011 and Tasikmalaya earthquake of 2009.

Designed by Nihon Sekkei, Arup Group and DP Architects, the whole superblock was built by a consortium between Ssangyong Engineering and Construction, KAJIMA Corporation, TOTAL Bangun Perkasa, and Totalindo Eka Persada. The groundbreaking ceremony for the whole complex was held in 2006, and the final topping off ceremony for the complex (Landmark Mansion condominium and The Jakarta EDITION Landmark hotel tower) was held in 2014.
