Horneytorney Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 Do you think the Holiday Inn will be guest-friendly when I touch down in 2014 ? sure! in this environment certainly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specialist Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 The connection to the Asok BTS station to the Interchange Tower and sidewalk in front of it (that would be how to get to Cowboy) was completed early last year. You can now get to all four corners of the intersection from the station. TH I must have missed that when I was in town in April. How do you get to the southeast corner from the northeast (Soi Cowboy) corner? I've been crossing under Asoke on the north side, to get to the Skytrain, for years. Crossing Asoke on the south (even-numbered soi) side is relatively painless, but about the only occasion I've had to do that was walking from Los Cabos to Soi Cowboy.

radioman Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 Walked through WS on Friday evening, but for the big sportsbar place, former katoey show place, in the middle it's just a building site now, MM's pictures tell it how it is. Well more a demolition site at the moment as they tear stuff down. Is it slated to be a hotel? Big farking area, The new Holiday Inn on the corner of Soi 22 occupies less than about a quarter of the WS demolition site. How about the rest of the Sukhumvit and Soi 22 properties bordering that lot? Will they stay or go in short order now that the work has started.

Coss Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 Another shopping mall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radioman Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 It seems more probable but what with Emporium barely a spit away and the new whatsit 21 the other side of Asoke the place seems to be OD'ing on shopping holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specialist Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 through the subwaystation, man! you can't miss it! From memory: I go down the escalators from the Soi Cowboy side of Asoke, and I'm looking West, going under Asoke, toward lower Sukhumvit. The subway station proper extends off to the North. There didn't USED to be a way to go South. There was a secondary corridor on the South side, going West, that seemed to end quickly, but I've never really looked. Are you saying they've cut another tunnel and opened a portal to the South, to cross under Sukhumvit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No - you cannot cross Sukhumvit underneath the roads, you can only use the Skywalk to cross Sukhumvit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobbledonk Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 No - you cannot cross Sukhumvit underneath the roads, you can only use the Skywalk to cross Sukhumvit. FFS - I had this same 'discussion' with several here months ago and was told that I can cross from the Soi 22 side of Asok to the Cowboy side via a magical subway entrance.
