## Background (Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0, shortened)

Ampang Park Shopping Centre, also called Ampang Park, was a shopping centre located at Jalan Ampang in Kuala Lumpur. It was the first shopping centre to be built in Malaysia. It was designed by the architect of Singapore's People's Park Complex, the Design Partnership, in conjunction with the Kuala Lumpur-based architect Thomas A.S. Tiang. The developers were the Low Keng Huat Brothers Realty Sdn Bhd. Ampang Park was closed on 31 December 2017 and demolished in 2018 to make way for the construction of MRT Ampang Park Station which opened on 16 March 2023. Further redevelopment of the former site is yet to begin and the site currently serves as a temporary recreational park along with connecting walkway path to Ampang Park LRT station.
