Northpoint City (formerly known as Northpoint Shopping Centre) is a suburban shopping mall in Yishun, Singapore. The mall houses the North Park Residences condominium, Nee Soon Central Community Club, Yishun Public Library and Yishun Bus Interchange. It was first built in 1992, and was renovated and expanded in 2010. It underwent a second renovation and expansion in 2017.

History[]

Originally called the Northpoint Shopping Centre, it was constructed in November 1992 as the first suburban mall in the north of Singapore. Cold Storage, Swensen's and Giordano opened their first outlets in Northpoint Shopping Centre.

In July 2017, Northpoint Shopping Centre was renamed as Northpoint City, with the existing building becoming its north wing. The south wing of the mall was opened in December 2017, integrating Northpoint City with the Yishun Integrated Transport Hub and Nee Soon Central Community Club. It was the first time in Singapore these public facilities had been integrated like this. A 920-unit condominium North Park Residences was also constructed atop Northpoint City.

Yishun Public Library reopened on 3 February 2018, located at the fourth level of the North Wing.[3]
