Greenlane Heights, Penang (16 March 2014)
Greenlane Heights refers to a huge high-rise residential neighbourhood in
Green Lane, Penang. The older blocks are located on the outer area while newer blocks are constructed deeper in. Built by Hunza Properties, Greenlane Heights was completed in 1999 with a gross development value of RM250million. The entire development has 2,500 high-rise residential units that range from low-cost to medium cost and luxury apartments.
The naming of the blocks at Greenlane Heights is supposed to be in alphabetical order, but with some irregularities. Block C, for example, is called Block 3. A number of blocks are also named after birds including the Flamingo Series, Jay Series and Kingfisher Series.
In addition to the residential blocks, Hunza Properties also built a commercial complex, known as
Hunza Complex, and a wet market-cum-food court (the
Greenlane Heights Market) as facilities for the neighbourhood.
