The exact closure date is not officially documented in public records. However, based on analysis of historical satellite imagery and the delisting from aviation databases, the heliport was likely deactivated sometime between the mid-2000s and early 2010s.
The primary reason for the closure was commercial land development and repurposing. The heliport was located on the property of the Shopping Tamboré mall. The space it occupied was reallocated for the expansion of the mall's surface parking lot to accommodate more vehicles, a more pressing commercial need than maintaining a private heliport.
The site of the former heliport, at the coordinates -23.509953, -46.825332, is now fully integrated into the surface parking lot of the Shopping Tamboré mall. There are no remaining physical traces of the heliport structure or markings at this specific location.
Tamboré Heliport was a private facility that served the Shopping Tamboré mall and the surrounding affluent residential and corporate area. The Tamboré and Alphaville neighborhoods of Barueri are known for having one of the highest concentrations of corporate headquarters and high-net-worth residents in Brazil. When active, the heliport's main operation was providing executive and VIP transport, allowing shoppers, mall executives, and local business leaders to bypass São Paulo's severe road traffic. It was part of an extensive network of private heliports that cater to the region's significant helicopter traffic.
There are no known plans or prospects for reopening this heliport. The land has been permanently repurposed, and the demand for helicopter access in the area is well-served by numerous other active private and corporate heliports in the immediate vicinity.
