Island Glades, Penang

Island Glades, Penang (3 July 2017)


Island Glades (GPS: 5.38392, 100.30517) is a residential neighbourhood within the suburb of Jelutong, in George Town, Penang. When the entire Green Lane was developed, it became a new suburb detached from Jelutong, and Island Glades became a neighbourhood within Green Lane. Although today it is one of the older housing estates, until the beginning of 1960, Island Glades was still countryside. Before Island Glades was developed, Green Lane was just a single country road leading south.

Island Glades developed rapidly between 1960 and 1975. New houses filled up the former plantation land (hence "glades"). When they were brand new, every row had a different colour roof. So it was quite a vibrant sight. In the early 1980's there was an attempt to rename it Taman Mutiara, but that never really catch on. Today, new high rise residential housing continues to be constructed at the edges of Island Glades, as far as there were still land to build.

Public Transport in Island Glades

Island Glades is 6.2 km from Komtar, making it an ideal place to stay for those working in the city. However, since the time it was developed, traffic along the road to the city has increased so much that even repeated road widening has not reduced the time taken to reach the city centre.

About this website

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.
