Improving upon the existing Northpoint Shopping Centre (completed by SAA in 1992), Northpoint City (NPC) would integrate within it, a bus interchange, Nee Soon Central Community Club, a rooftop community garden with wet and dry playgrounds, Yishun Public Library and a 920 unit condominium, located above the shopping podium, making Yishun a vibrant destination through its activities and amenities.

The development was planned to improve connectivity to surrounding areas and transport nodes to enhance existing businesses, enrich community activities and energize community life. A seamless retail loop between NPC and Yishun MRT and a community loop linking the mall, bus interchange, town centre, town square and town garden extend NPC’s vibrancy to the wider Yishun community. NPC’s flowing lines, accentuated by its abundant skyterraces and terracotta colours dialogue with the existing Yishun MRT station, giving NPC a distinct architectural identity.
