07.01 The Capital MallIntroduction

The Capital Mall

The Retail Component of Abuja WTC is a mall prominently situated in the heart of the precinct, acting as the bound for the different uses around, above and bellow it.

The building configures the podium of the WTC tower, opening to the city and being accessed through plazas along the main roads on its two extremes. The mall is the gate of the Central District from the Railway Station, and takes advantage of the footfall originated by that public transportation facility.

Architectonically, the mall presents itself as a raised structure with strategic openings towards the plazas. It offers a dynamic energetic facades from the exterior, while providing a protected “indoor-outdoor” space rounding the base of the Tower, with a “canyon” profile.

The mall can contain shops, cafes, restaurants and cinemas – thus offering a variety of entertainment and shopping options as well as venues for recreation and socializing.

The mall will also include specialized retail and support services for the commercial, educational and social activities related to the WTC.
