The official opening of American Dream in East Rutherford, New Jersey took place on October 25, 2019. Nickelodeon Universe, the largest indoor theme park in the Western Hemisphere, and The Rink, an NHL-size ice skating and hockey facility, were unveiled. A brief selection of the activities offered include: Aang’s Air Gliders (guests can hold on tight as soar and spin like an Airbender), Blaze’s Monster Truck Rally (guests can rev up and roll out with Blaze and friends for an epic race in the Monster Dome), Blue’s Skidoo (guests can make Blue and Magenta soar up, down, and all around, and then, they can sit down in the Thinking Chair to think, think, think with a little help from good friend Blue), Dora’s Sky Railway (guests can join Dora for a trip aboard her little blue train friend, Azul; first, a hot air balloon floats them to the rail station in the clouds, and then, they board Azul for a sky-high journey featuring scenic views of the park from the elevated tracks), and Timmy’s Half Pipe Havoc (guests can take a not-so-ordinary spin on the halfpipe with Timmy, Cosmo, and Wanda; the giant skateboard ride provides the ultimate in airtime).

Kiara Bay | Malaysia

Lead8 has recently celebrated the launch of the Kiara Bay masterplan. The 73-acre development is poised to transform one of Kuala Lumpur’s earliest townships into an eco-living destination. Lead8’s masterplan seeks to emulate the balance of city, nature, and leisure and is comprised of three main districts: “The Waters”, “The Walk”, and “The Village”. Embracing a 140-acre lake at the heart of the site, “The Waters” district is defined by its landmark towers, which provide visual reference points for the development and sweeping views of the landscape. The major leisure and retail district, which features integrated office, hotel, and serviced apartments, sits at the center of the design. Known as “The Walk”, the area serves as the connective point to the retail destination as it is accessible via a 10-minute walk or 3-minute cycle from all parts of the township. Anchoring the east of Kiara Bay is the compact community cluster known as “The Village”, which is designed around a lively community park and fronted by a wellness center, retirement living, community retail hub, and educational facility. Through the activation of the lakefront and the interconnection of a series of retail, leisure, and community spaces, the masterplan seeks to maximize the pedestrian and cycle experience for both visitors and residents. Supporting healthier lifestyles, improving air quality, and reducing vehicular traffic demand help to elevate the long-term liveability and sustainability of Kiara Bay.
