The George Town 3D Model faithfully creates all the buildings within the Inner City up till 2011. The area interpretated in the 3D model are the ones bounded by Transfer Road, Prangin Road, Prangin Road Ghaut, and a small section of Burmah Road.
According to Freddie Lim Hock Lye, who created the model with a staff member, the model was done to the scale of 1:300. It was based on actual site measurements with plans obtained from the Municipal Council of Penang Island (MPPP). Made possible through a RM80,000 grant from Think City, the model took over a year to complete. Measuring 16 feet by 18 feet, it now forms the centrepiece of the interpretative centre.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
