Readers ask

How big will Robinson be and what kind of stores?
Is there any other big construction going on in the area?

Robinson

Here's a link to the proposed floor plan of the lower floor

Don't see any golden arches.  A question that's been asked frequently.  Mostly high end stores.

I've been to the Udon Robinson a few times.  
From personal observation:  I didn't see too many shopping bags leaving the mall.
Plenty of kids hang out there after school.  I suspect they are there mostly for the air conditioning.
Tops seemed to be the most popular.  
Heard there will be four theaters.  Don't expect any English movies.  
There's too few English speaking Thais in the area to make that feasible.

Other big construction.

The CM Center, south of Big-C.  A few stores have already opened there.
Still plenty of construction, haven't heard of any grand opening date scheduled. Probably within a month.


New stadium near the airport.  Probably also in the middle of next year before it's opened.  The stadium is located on airport road.
