The 1980s saw the establishment of the Atria in Damansara Jaya and Subang Parade in Subang Jaya. The Atria provided the opportunity for residents to patronise either the Japanese Kimisawa or the French Printemps department stores, as well as a Burger King restaurant. Both the departmental stores and Burger King did not survive the 1980s economic recession, however Burger King later reopened in the early 2000s. Later as Atria lost anchor tenant Parkson Grand, they attempted to uplift the premises with a cosmetic makeover in October 2010. As of July 2011, Atria and its latest anchor tenant, Giant Supermarket has ceased operations and is currently undergoing demolition to make way for new development.
