New World Department Store (Bangkok)

Former shopping centre and department store in Bangkok, Thailand

New World Department Store is a former shopping centre and department store in Bangkok, Thailand. It stood on the corner of Bang Lamphu Intersection and operated from 1983 until 2004, when the building partially collapsed during a long-delayed court-ordered demolition of illegally built floors, killing one person. The remaining structure has since largely remained abandoned, and drew interest as an urban exploration destination in the 2010s for a fish pond that had been created inside, before authorities removed the fish in 2015. From 2020, the building has been used for exhibitions concerning the use of urban public space.
