Jalan Robertson, Kuala Lumpur, with view of the Church of St Anthony (7 July, 2016)
Jalan Robertson is a minor road in Kuala Lumpur. Located off Jalan Pudu, it leads to the Church of St Anthony. According to Streets of Kuala Lumpur1, the namesake of Jalan Robertson, one D.G. Robertson, was the manager of the Federated Engineering Company, at one time. He had his house on this road. Initially, that house had the address of 2A Pudoh Road, but in 1908, the KL Sanitary Board decided to name the road leading to his house after him, to avoid confusion with nearby Jalan Pudu.
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.
