Situated at the city's prime address of Gurney Drive, it comprises twin residential towers, an office block and a nine-storey shopping mall forming the podium. Each residential tower stands at a height of 155 m (509 ft).[2]

Launched in 2013, the shopping mall's main anchor tenant is TGV Cinemas, which operates a multiplex at its top floor.[3][4] The mall also contains over 200 outlets spread out over nine floors, including a number of international brands.

Superstores such as MST Golf Arena and Decathlon are added more recently.
