Wisma Atria is an established shopping mall on Orchard Road in Singapore.[1] The 230,000 square feet (21,000 m2) centre, which opened on 13 November 1986, is directly linked underground to Orchard MRT station and neighbouring centres.[2]
Wisma Atria features five floors dedicated to shopping, including one basement level and four above-ground retail levels, along with three levels of parking space.
The centre hosts over 100 specialty stores, anchored by the fashion brand Tory Burch and the local culinary destination Food Republic. [2]. It also features popular food and beverage brands such as Haidilao Hot Pot, Starbucks, Tiong Bahru Bakery, The Providore, and The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf.
Watch enthusiasts will appreciate offerings from renowned brands like Rolex, Tudor Watches, and Garmin. For streetwear aficionados, the 3rd level is a must-visit, home to CHAMBER, a designer streetwear haven, alongside New Era Cap Company, LE Ballpark, Lacoste, and Porter International.
Wisma Atria is at the intersection between Orchard Road and Scotts Road. It is next to Orchard MRT station.
In 1983, the Wisma Indonesia building was demolished and a shopping mall, The Wisma, was built over the site.[3][4] The developer of the mall was Wisma Development Pte Ltd, a subsidiary of A. W. Galadari Pte Ltd, a Dubai company owned by the Galadari brothers.[3]
In 1984, after Abdul Wahab Galadari's assets were seized by the United Arab Emirates's government over the Union Bank of the Middle East's dealings, one of many Galadari's companies, A. W. Galadari Pte Ltd was taken over by Dubai Bank Ltd, a bank owned by A. W. Galadari's brothers.[5] In 1985, the mall was renamed to Wisma Atria after the Union Bank of the Middle East took over Dubai Bank Ltd.[4]

Notable changes include the replacement of the original blue facade with clear glass, a new Grand Entrance facing Orchard Road on Level 2, new large Wisma Atria signage on a new blue grid structure facing Orchard Road and external lighted escalators on the facade leading to Levels 3 and 4.
