Located at Jalan Bangsar in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia National Insurance Tower enjoys exceptional visibility within the establish area of Bangsar. The proposed 28-storey building shall stand out on its own against the backdrop of lower blocks of the surrounding areas. The building design is a play of dynamic, progressive look and the sculpted volume & ridged edge enhance building height.

Could be, since there is a large plot of land which is currently being used as an open-air carpark... Furthermore, the LRT line is right in front...

MNI must be cash-rich, since they are able to built another office so close to their HQ on Jalan Pinang... I presume they will be using this building mainly for investment purposes...

That's one of the best locations for an office building... At least the workers there can minimize the use of their cars when coming to work since the LRT station is right at the doorstep!

When are they going to start piling and ground-breaking, btw?

At Jalan Bangsar today, I believe just next to Dataran Maybank, this is what I found. I saw MNI signage but not too sure if this pix is the MNI const. site, It may be MNI site or just another development next to MNI site. If I have the chance on Sunday, I will recapture the site again.
