The Hallmark office building to open in Thu Thiem New Urban Area

Since 2019, premium office space in HCMC, along with major international cities in the region such as Hanoi, Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Shanghai, has been facing critical shortages of new supply, despite demand growing at a fast pace.

The Hallmark is part of the 7.6-hectare Metropole development project in Thu Thiem New Urban Area, Tran Bach Dang Street, An Phu Ward, Thu Duc City.

The tower sits conveniently at Thu Thiem’s doorway, directly across from District 1 via Thu Thiem 2 Bridge.

Thu Thiem New Urban Area is being positioned as the country’s new central business center that is highly connected to the old center through boulevards, Metro Line No.1, Thu Thiem bridges, and tunnels.

This linkage offers opportunities for the establishment of schools, international hospitals, parks, art centers, museums, sports areas, marinas, and other amenities in the area, bringing the Thu Thiem peninsula closer to becoming the epicenter of new development.

Located within a 5-minute walk of Central Plaza Park, the conference center and the peninsula’s futuristic symphony theater provide easy access to important areas in the future.

Tenants will enjoy sweeping panoramic views of the city, as well as nearby mass transit systems, lush, green parks and cultural spaces.
