Summary, model-written

HiMall opened in January 2013 as a shopping center in Banqiao District, developed by Lihpao Construction Group. By August 2025, only a FamilyMart, Showtime Cinemas, and Tom's World remained, leading to an announced closure and future conversion to office space.

Why. The record cites poor long-term operating performance as the reason for the closure and planned redevelopment.

Background

HiMall is a Taiwanese shopping center in Banqiao District, New Taipei, Taiwan that opened on 10 January 2013. The mall is developed and operated by Lihpao Construction Group. The main core stores of the mall include Family Mart, Doctor Air, Tom's World, and Showtime Cinemas. The mall is located in close proximity to Banqiao station of the Bannan line of Taipei Metro. In August 2025, due to poor long-term operating performance, the mall only had a FamilyMart convenience store on the first floor, Showtime Cinemas on the second to fourth floors, and Tom's World on the fifth floor. Therefore, it announced that it would close down on 31st and would be converted into office space in the future.
