Pondok Indah Mall (Indonesian: Mal Pondok Indah), abbreviated as PIM, is a large shopping mall complex located in the Pondok Indah suburb of South Jakarta, Indonesia. The Pondok Indah Mall complex (referred to by locals as PIM) comprises three large buildings, the older 3-storey PIM1 and the 5-storey PIM2, and the newest building PIM3. PIM 1 and PIM2 are interconnected via two elevated multi-storey pedestrian walkways (North Skywalk and South Skywalk), which are also tenanted by specialty shops. PIM3, which was officially opened in 2021, is connected to the other two buildings by a skybridge as well.

In January 2017, Forbes recognised Pondok Indah Mall as one of the top five shopping malls in Jakarta.[2]

Architecture

PIM1 and PIM2 each house a cinema complex. Both buildings are connected externally via a walkway and an open-air water theme park was located near PIM1, right behind Street Gallery. Each three main buildings (PIM 1, 2, and 3) have different tractions: PIM 1 provides a complete shopping concept with a supermarket on the ground floor and a vast food court, PIM 2 is more focused on upper-class aficionados with numbers of luxurious fashion and lifestyle brands, and PIM 3 becomes the balancer of the concept of both PIM 1 and 2.[3] InterContinental Jakarta Pondok Indah Hotel & Residences comprises approximately 300 hotel rooms and 180 serviced residences, which also adjoins the PIM2.[4] Along with malls, office buildings, and hotels, the complex is termed as 'Pondok Indah Town Center'.

The architectural style was understated elegant conventional mall, with flooring continually updated until its present condition of polished Indonesian marble and granite. The architecture roughly imitated Dutch colonial large-scale warehouses with extensive steel-truss interpretation of Dutch structural timberwork for an innovative illuminating central skylight (double-glazed for minimizing heat transfer) and featured three airy floors of shopping with a narrow open-floor gallery (made safe via decorative fencing). The exterior featured aluminium cladding for minimal maintenance in the harsh tropical climate.

Pondok Indah Mall 1

PIM 1 was completed in 1991. Originally, the site was a random mixture of open fields, slums, middle-class dwellings and traditional warungs and eateries. It was a hated eyesore that generated vast amounts of litter, untreated stormwater and traffic congestion. Metro Department Store opened its first store at PIM 1 alongside fellow anchor tenants Hero Supermarket and Cinema XXI. It also houses a Uniqlo store, along with PIM 3

PIM's new extension, Street Gallery opened in 2013. It is located south of the PIM1 side. It mainly consists of food and beverage tenants.

Pondok Indah Mall 2

PIM2 was first advertised as an ambitious huge amalgamation of residential and hotel-apartment tower complexes (one tower for each), office space, and commercial hub. However, due to the 1997 Asian financial crisis, funds were unavailable to proceed. After a change of ownership, the expansion was finally realized in 2004 with the opening of Mall 2. At PIM2, Sogo unveiled its latest supermarket format, dubbed "Sogo Foodhall" in 2004.

Pondok Indah Mall 3

PIM 3 was developed in the second half of 2016, after the success of closing the roof of Pondok Indah Residences. It was designed with a leasable area of over 55,000 square metres,[5] and was officially opened on 8 April 2021. A key architectural feature is the giant balcony with a glass floor that shows the bottom two floors called Atmost-Fear.[6] Seibu, Ranch Market, and Uniqlo are the anchor tenants. PIM 3 has a convention hall called the "City Hall" on the top floor, which becomes the venue of the Jakarta Fashion Week since 2022.[7] Above the connection bridge between PIM 3 and 2, there is a small flower garden called "Love on Top" (LoT).
