Developed by investment management and real estate developer VinaCapital Commercial Center Ltd., the project will be Broadway’s first in Vietnam. Following an international design competition, the practice is providing a full range of architectural, landscape and graphic design services on the project.

The practice has released the first images of part of the scheme, which is a 46,600 square metre (net lettable area) retail project. It will also be the first shopping centre in Vietnam to include a department store. The World Trade Center Danang occupies a high-profile site facing the Han River and running through the city. It is set to become a major mixed-use real estate scheme in Danang, driving new development on the west bank of the river.

The nine-hectare scheme broke ground in early 2008, with the luxury 32-storey and 225-apartment Azura tower having topped out in late 2011, making it the tallest condominium tower in central Danang. Work on the retail, commercial, residential and hotels is currently underway.
