It occupies a site off Jalan Sultan Ismail that was the former site of Crowne Plaza Mutiara Kuala Lumpur. The centrepiece of this project is a 775-meter skyscraper. Another report places the height of the skyscraper at 608 meters. In either case, if it is completed, the skyscraper will be the tallest building in Kuala Lumpur.

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.
