It is the largest public/private real estate development venture in Malaysia. The project’s major landmark, the PETRONAS Twin Towers, undoubtedly will remain the development’s primary anchor. The towers were officially declared the tallest buildings in the world in 1998. The KLCC project is being constructed in phases over many years. The master plan shows a total of 22 separately titled development parcels surrounding a 20-hectare (50-acre) park. Seven parcels either have been developed or are under construction in 2004. The success of KLCC was seen from the outset to be of national interest. The owner and developer—KLCC Holdings Berhad, an unlisted public company whose largest shareholder is Petroliam Nasional Berhad (PETRONAS), the Malaysian national petroleum company—is responsible for the development and coordination of new projects undertaken directly or in joint venture with other firms.

Introduction The Petronas Towers were designed to be the centrepiece of a larger complex called the Kuala Lumpur City Centre (KLCC), a mixed-use development with a site area of 14.15 acres, which includes the towers, two other office towers, underground parking and service facilities. The project site is well located in the heart of the commercial district of the city, the ‘Golden Triangle’. Each of the twin towers is eighty-eight storeys high and contains 218,000 square metres of floor space. Rising 452 metres, the towers were certified the world’s tallest buildings by the Council of Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat in 1996. The two towers are connected by a sky bridge at the forty-first and forty-second floors – the sky lobby levels – to facilitate inter-tower communication and traffic. A multi-storey shopping and entertainment galleria connects the office towers at their bases, integrating the entire complex. Other public functions within the complex include the Petroleum Discovery Centre, an art gallery, an 865- seat concert hall and a multimedia conference centre. II. Contextual Information A. Historical background In early 1981 the Malaysian Government decided to move the Selangor Turf Club and its horse-racing track from the heart of the city to the periphery and to redevelop the site to meet the demands of urban and economic growth. The site, occupying 100 acres of land in a burgeoning economic catchment area with access to the city‘s main ring road, offered an ideal location for the development of a new city centre that would reinforce Kuala Lumpur‘s emerging status as an international city in the twenty-first century.

  • The Petronas Twin Towers and the Kuala Lumpur City Centre from the Perspective of Critical Regionalism
    THE PETRONAS TWIN TOWERS AND THE KUALA LUMPUR CITY CENTRE FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF CRITICAL REGIONALISM ISMAEEL OTUOZE AUDU A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the degree of Master of Architecture Faculty of Built Environment Universiti Teknologi Malaysia JUNE 2012 iii To my beloved parents iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to extend my profound gratitude to my supervisor, Dr. Gurupiah Mursib, who worked effortlessly to see that I finished my work with good quality, for the knowledge she impacted on me and for her kindness. I am also thankful to Assoc. Prof. Mohammad Jaffar and Dr. Muktar Mai for the light they showed me in my thesis. I am also thankful to my colleagues at the research lab for their support, advice and their assistance at various occasions. To Dodo Yakub, Juliet, Jibril, Idris, Lesa, my uncles Saidu and Abdulrahman, and my many other friends unfortunately it is impossible to mention all their names because of the limited space. Their views and tips were useful indeed. A very special thanks to my sisters, brother and my family members, I am indeed grateful. v ABSTRACT Critical regionalism is a post modern theory conceived as an architecture of resistance to bring back humanistic agenda to architecture to create a contemporary regional identity, an aspect which modernism neglected. This thesis cites an already established strategy of critical regionalism which is a combination of the visions of the progenitors of the theory. This thesis groups these strategies into place-making and place-form making concepts, and distinguishes them through the meanings which they manifest through experience of place and physical form of place respectively.

  • The Magic Is Still Present – Why KLCC Will Continue to Thrive in an Increasingly Competitive Landscape
    Sunday, 3 June 2018 Opinion: The magic is still present – Why KLCC will continue to thrive in an increasingly competitive landscape Contributed by AREA Management Sdn Bhd chairman Datuk Stewart Labrooy Designed to be a “city within a city”, Kuala Lumpur City Center (KLCC) is a 100-acre site that hosts the tallest twin towers in the world, a shopping mall, office buildings and several hotels. It is also home to a public park and mosque which is open to the public. The site, which is much larger in size in contrast to the Tun Razak Exchange (TRX) is a brilliant example of developing a master plan for a modern central business district. It has acted as the catalyst for the surrounding land with excellent office architecture, five-star hotels and apartment buildings mushrooming since. Anchoring KLCC is the Petronas Twin Towers. According to the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat official definition and ranking, the Petronas Twin Towers were the tallest buildings in the world from 1998 to 2004 and remains the tallest twin towers in the world. They define Kuala Lumpur’s skyline along with the nearby Kuala Lumpur Tower which has attracted tourists from around the globe. Argentine architect Cesar Pelli designed the towers using a distinctive postmodern style which reflects a 21st-century icon for Kuala Lumpur. The construction of the superstructure commenced on April 1, 1994. On New Year’s of 1996 interiors with furniture were fitted into the building, while the spires of Tower 1 and Tower 2 were completed on Mar 1, 1996.
