Opened in late 1992, Northpoint Shopping Centre was another milestone in Yishun’s development. Up till then, residents here had to go to town if they were looking for upmarket shops. As Singapore’s first suburban shopping complex, Northpoint brought these upmarket names such as John Little and Cold Storage into the heartlands. For many residents then, it was just like having Orchard Road at their doorsteps! In 2008, renovation of Northpoint took off and another extension was built.
