Built in the eighties, before strict regulation on height within the heritage zone was implemented, Bangunan AHP2 towers over the inner city of George Town. It is and will remain the tallest building in the area, as the area is today within the George Town World Heritage Site, where new building heights are strictly controlled.

Bangunan AHP2 is 14 storeys high, with a 5-storey car park and a basement. When it was first built, it was known as the Development & Commercial Bank Building or D&C Bank. Later on, it became known as Bangunan Maybank Trust. Later on it became known as Wisma Manilal, before it was bought over by the real estate trust Amanah Harta Tanah PNB2, or AHP2, which is managed by Pelaburan Hartanah Nasional Bhd. The building is presently owned by Sentral College, which will be based there from November 2012.
