Canal Walk is a unique commercial business facility containing 445 office units, 345 retail units, and 993 parking spaces. Noted for its unique and sophisticated exterior design, Canal Walk features four blocks of 5-story low-rises that run along either side of a central canal that spans 540 M. The canal itself is lined with assorted greenery and wood decking. This combination creates a unique and exotic exterior space that’s eco-friendly and enjoyable for local shoppers and tourists alike.
The retail conglomerate E-Land, Korea’s second largest retailer, recently announced that the company will lease over 250 of the retail shops. The company will also be opening a Duty Free shopping center in Canal Walk, which will be the largest duty-free shopping center outside of Incheon Airport.
