Have you guys been to the new city mall in Onikan? It's beside the Tafawa Balewa Square and just opposite the Muson Centre

It's really big and nice - in fact, I am posting this topic from their cyber-cafe really high tech. Although not all the shops are open, in a few months the place will be fully operational.

But guess how much for browsing? 250 naira for one hour! I really feel things are generally to expensive for a city mall but apart from that it's realy cool and there is a cinema that shows the latest movies.

can u post the picture of the mall. wow. naija is really moving forward lil by lil

abeg post tire

What's the name of the mall, anyway? Is it simply City Mall? Send us pictures, thanks!

Heh, it's just a 3-minute walk from my office. I have to walk past it every weekday...

ill try get a picture of it today its really nice

The new mall is a nice place,my concern is how they are going to provide enough car packing space around that place.

me I would love to see pics of the place or the weblink if they have one....Naija is moving places but sadly bird flu is around there!!

i do not seem to be able to find any picture of the mall on the net i might have to go take it myself and yea the packing space is not that big and would be a problem when the palce gets into full swing

what of piksho

Ahhhhh, I am a fan of retail developments

im sorry for this mall sha, no one goes there
but its nice really nice and very expensive too!

@ gamine or anybody in the house, pls do u have any idea how much it will cost to have awedding reception party . let say from afteroon to evening

oh a mall

i mean muson center onikan. it's just opposite the lag city mall

There's a hall @ d top of the city mall, but i'm sure it's going to be quite expensive too. The Mall is standard and world class in terms of equipment. The stores are okay too, in fact many Shops at Palm's have an outlet at City Mall as well. The ATM works fine too and the escalators are ever okay, and the gents, tight!

The POS machines work well so there's a common ground for equity with Palm's except for the availability of goods and services and location. Infact on a busy lagos day, you could spend as much as 1 hour driving from City Mall to Shoprite, why not save yourself the stress and stop at City? Besides, getting out of Game is real wahala nowadays.

Let´s hope that Nigeria´s mall revolution starts now, it is long overdue and some countries are already laughing at us, Nigeria is the sixth largest oil producer of the world and modern retail is still in its infancy. So go Lagos , gooooo! Move ahead and show the world that Nigeria is an African lion´s economy that shouldn´t hide itself from the world

Anyone has photos from the mall inside?

@naijacutee wen u comin over?? i cud give ya a grand tour

i like this comment. smaller countries with less resource have more impressive malls. no disrespect.

nigeria has a mall,
we doin it big
damn i need to go down der

The Abuja Developments will be better though

With all the lifts and escalators, whatz gonna happen when NEPA (or na PHCN dem dey call am now) perform their magic? I'm glad for naija sha, at least we too go get our own small version of MOA. Go go go shorty,
By the way dude (@ topic), why did u spend 250 bucks browsing there if u could get it at a cheaper rate elsewhere? Abi u just wan get a feel of wetin the mall be? LOL.

No serious business depends on NEPA these days. We depend on generators instead!

DAPRINCE,you suppose know say this na STRICTLY BUSINESS.no be by force to browse 250 per hour,you know how much? them dey collect for COOL CAFE?@victoria island.
although, lagos city shopping mall na the place to be.make nairalander go PATRONISE THEM

well their cinema's aren't all that, I went there in sept '05 when i was in naija, and compared to silverbird? they're pretty mediocre

they don't really have a good movie selection either. But that was over a year ago sha, hope they've improved now

How much dem dey collect for cool cafe, and wetin dem dey offer?

@dblock

Thanks for the picture


Does anyone know which of these two is better : City Mall, Onikan OR Palms Mall, Lekki ?

so is the national museum still there? is that not opposite the Muson center? what about the traffic, still crazy

The Palms is definitely better, and much bigger too, it wasn't finished last time i was there, but from eye-witness accounts, its a better mall

more parking, more shops, better lay-out, etc

the palms is better than city mall.
@babasin,museum is still there,
do u know that museum now wear a new look?
men go check it out!
piss out!

I hope so, its been over 12yrs since i enter that museum, ah! those days of fine-art excursions

@ edmondo so you live in sabo? thats my old 'hood man, whats poppin in that area?

Any more pics?
