Tampines Mall (Chinese: 淡滨尼广场; pinyin: Dànbīnní Guǎngchǎng) is a suburban shopping mall located at Tampines Central 5 in Tampines, Singapore, next to Century Square as well as Tampines 1.[1] It was completed in 1995.

History

Completed in late 1995, Tampines Mall was developed by DBS Land (the predecessor of Capitaland) and NTUC Fairprice Co-Operative. Like suburban malls completed at that time, it had various anchor tenants, such as an Isetan department store, a Golden Village cineplex, a Kopitam food court, an NTUC Fairprice supermarket, a Popular bookstore, Toys 'R' Us and more than 100 specialty shops. It was the one of the largest suburban malls in Singapore back then.

In 2004, the mall underwent its first refurbishment, such as building a sheltered linkway to Century Square, adding more restaurants on the first floor, and converting the video games arcade to a play deck.

The mall underwent its second refurbishment in 2014, this time converting the roof level into an education hub, and giving a facade a new appearance. The food court, cinema and Basement 1 shops were renovated as well, During the refurbishment, a new tenant, H&M was allocated to levels 2 and 3, taking up the former space left vacant by Courts and various shops.

From 27 March 2020, access to Tampines Mall is currently restricted to the main entrance near the Tampines MRT station due to COVID-19 pandemic in Singapore. More entrances were progressively opened in August. H&M shut down operations at Tampines Mall on 31 August 2020, it will be replaced by Uniqlo (replacing the first flagship store in Tampines 1) in 2021.
