As a shopping center and mixed use housing project,
Torium is located in Istanbul's most densely-populated
residential area, located within ten minutes' drive
of nearly three and a half million people living in
the Beylikdüzü, Esenyurt, Gürpınar, Bahçeşehir,
Küçükçekmece, Florya, and Büyükçekmece
regions. Opened in October 2010 on the D100 (E5)
Highway at the Haramidere Junction, it enjoys easy
accessibility with the connecting roads around it
and comprehensive public transport links. With a
car parking capacity of 3,000 vehicles, the Torium
Shopping Mall benefits from having the most
comfortable shopping and parking facility. The number
of visitors to Torium is set to increase with the opening
of the metro-bus link to Avcılar-TÜYAP, construction
of which was completed in July 2012. This allows
consumers from Istanbul's Anatolian side to visit the
mall easily through public transportation.
Attracting attention as Torunlar REIC's first shopping
center investment in Istanbul, Torium is the fourth
largest shopping center in Istanbul and the fifth largest
in Turkey. With a total construction area of 256,000
m² , Torium is pioneering a new concept in the retailing
and shopping center sector, where one quarter of
the leasable area is allocated to entertainment area
and the food court. Snowpark, Turkey's first and
only indoor skiing facility, is already well renowned
throughout Turkey as a fun-packed sports complex
covering a 4,500 m² area. Torium is well on its way
to becoming one of Istanbul's most popular centers
with its indoor 3,500 m² 'Starpark' amusement center
designed to appeal to all ages, the Cinetech Cinemas
with a 9 screen multiplex cinema with a total of
1,766 seats (to expand to 11 screens and 3,003 seats
following the growth project) and an 8-lane bowling
alley..
BAiming to appeal to the young and working population
in its region, Torium boasts a comprehensive mix of
shops. Wide façades have been provided to shops
in the shopping centers for the first time with axis
intervals of 11 meters, while brands are represented in
large spaces.
Another significant feature of the shopping center is
the open-air bazaar area. This provides visitors with
a comfortable environment with a café, a bowling
alley and outdoor seating areas, which host concerts
and events during the spring and summer months on
its current stage. As a refreshing shopping center, it
offers an invigorating space with a wide atrium and galleries, a well-illuminated façade
that takes maximum advantage
of daylight, scenic ponds and rich
landscaping. Moreover, Torium
became the first shopping
center in Turkey to gain the
"LEED" (Leadership in Energy and
Environmental Design) certification.
Torium's environmental
awareness started during the
construction stage; it fulfills the
social responsibility projects and
accordingly sets an example in the
shopping center industry.
