Renovations

Wisma Atria underwent renovations in 2004 by local architect cum designers DP Architects. Notable changes include the replacement of the original blue facade with clear glass, a new Grand Entrance facing Orchard Road on Level 2, new large Wisma Atria signage on a new blue grid structure facing Orchard Road and external lighted escalators on the facade leading to Levels 3 and 4.

Wisma Atria has again undergone renovations in recent years and was completed in third quarter of 2012.

gollark: How do we "ask"? Is there a way to "ask" other than giant fusion rockets?
gollark: Why not? It's very important to the economy and many human interactions. More important than the majority of the UN, I'd say.
