What kind of building would you like to see to be built in Lot D (in front of Mandarin Oriental)? Please tell the type of architectural that you would like to see...

I for one, would love to see a smaller version of Skyneedle - squarish version of the Twin Towers. After all, the Twin Towers are the direct descendant of the Skyneedle. 350 meter building would do. It would give a perfect balance to the skyline..

Please tell your architectural preference for this building....

a small icon cultural institution..like modern arts (Tate gallery or Guggennheim museum), modern library etc
or huge landscape green bamboo gardens with water, rocks and no flowers.
Good feng shui :)

KLCCP to develop last strategic area

BY SUSAN TAM


Datuk Ishak Imam Abas
KLCC Property Holdings Bhd (KLCCP) intends to develop a maximum 1.3 million sq feet of its last strategic area – Lot D – after studying ways to optimise land use.

Without revealing Lot D’s gross development value (GDV), chief executive officer Datuk Ishak Imam Abas said the area was strategic as it was located in front of KLCCP’s five-star Mandarin Oriental hotel.

Its GDV is dependent on the quality and functionalities of the buildings to be built on it, he told reporters after the company AGM in Kuala Lumpur yesterday.

Ishak said the Lot C development was on track with construction scheduled to start in February and completion of the first phase expected to be 18 months later. This expansion, estimated at about RM500mil, consists of three phases.

The first, known as the Podium, is a six-storey expansion of the existing shopping mall, Suria KLCC. The second is a 21-storey office block while the final phase consists of 26-storey service apartments.

The potential revenue from this expansion comes up to a maximum of RM1.3mil in rental from the mall and RM4mil from the office building, depending on the tenancy arrangements. These figures are derived from possible rental rates ranging from RM6 to RM10 per square foot.

Oakwood International Ltd has been selected to operate the service apartments.

Financing for this expansion will either be based on a 60:40 or 70:30 ratio, with the larger percentage of funding to be made up of debt and the remaining, equity or internally-generate funds.

19-07-2007: KLCC Property to focus on existing locations
by Harpreet Bhal
Email us your feedback at fd@bizedge.com

KLCC Property Holdings Bhd will concentrate on extracting value from its existing properties in the Kuala Lumpur City Centre (KLCC) vicinity, as well as on developing new parcels of land around the area in a bid to sustain growth for the company.

The property developer intends to capitalise on the high demand for office space in Kuala Lumpur by increasing rentals. The company boasts a portfolio of premium developments, including the Petronas Twin Towers, Menara Maxis, Menara ExxonMobil, Dayabumi, Suria KLCC and Mandarin Oriental Hotel.

"The buoyant economic growth is also supporting demand for office space. Going ahead we see rates firming up if the economy continues to be buoyant," the company's chief executive officer Datuk Nasarudin Md Idris told reporters after the AGM here yesterday.

The Petronas Twin Towers, a prime address and national landmark, commands some of the highest rental rates in the city. The two towers are on a triple-net lease to Petronas and rentals are reviewed every three years. The last increase took place last year.

"We have room to also improve on our hotel business by increasing occupancy as well as average room rates," said Nasarudin, adding that room rates at the Mandarin Oriental averaged RM512.70 last year, with an occupancy rate of 79 %.

He said the company had no plans to sell any of its prime location properties or expand into other areas outside the KLCC vicinity, as there was still much to be done to develop the current site.

The company is currently developing a parcel of land known as Lot C into a 59-storey office block to complement the adjacent Petronas Twin Towers.

Nasarudin said structural work was currently being carried out on-site but declined to disclose the value or cost of the project. However, he said the company was approaching Petronas to be the anchor tenant. The project is expected to be completed by 2010.

"Besides that, we also have another parcel of land called Lot D. That's something we need to think about in terms of what kind of development we want to have there," he added. The company is also considering acquisitions but there are no immediate plans.

For the financial year ended March 31, 2007, KLCC Property Holdings posted a net profit of RM2 billion against RM117.34 million previously, due to the fair value adjustment of investment property following the adoption of Financial Reporting Standards (FRS) 140. Revenue for the period grew to RM780.75 million compared to RM748.25 million posted in 2006.

Haha..only Malaysians go for free reading...mat salleh ni conscious..download anime/movie pun tak nak....lagila baca buku free kat bookshop.I still think that a library should be there, coz the place is very strategi...they can transfer books from the National Library 'yang tak laku'.Sometimes I think that some floors of the PT should be converted into libraries..haha..godd what.

Anyway, good there's actually an art gallery,I didn't know that :bash: .

About the museum thingy, the museums in Malaysia could temporarily place their exhibit or import exhibit from overseas to be dispalyed at the KLCC convention centre :) ..this would be more feasible and interesting...at least can see different things from time to time. This has been done in Adelaide, where the art gallery 'yang tak laku' temporarily house some Egyptian artifacts...and people flocked to it.

Long-term growth from Lot C and Lot D1

KLCCP’s development plans for Lot C with a net lettable area of 0.16 million sq ft of retail space and 0.74 million sq ft of office space, will raise its total net lettable area by 16%. The new retail space will first come on-stream by end-2008, followed by the offices by end-2009. Full impact on earnings from Lot C hence is expected by FYE Mar-10E estimated at M$24 million per annum (13% of FY07E profits).

Management indicates that there is a firm interest for 80% of the new office space from a single customer at premium rental rates of 50% to the market. KLCCP may look to sell the remaining 20% of the office space, and if this materializes it will raise an estimated M$144 million (M$0.11/share), which will help reduce FY09E net gearing from 56% to 51%. Total development cost for Lot C is M$500 million. Beyond FY10, growth will come from Lot D1, where there are still no details on development plans. However, in our RNAV, we have assumed the development potential and cost for Lot D1 is similar to Lot C, although the former sits on a larger piece of land at 1.41 acres versus the latter’s 1.01 acres.

so dey proposed a srv aptmt at Lot D huh??

Lot D1 plans not concrete yet. Initially, the site was earmarked for service residences. However, KLCCP stated plans still fluid and is dependent on
market demand. We think firmer plans likely made known closer to completion of Lot C as more cash-flow will be available for Lot D1 developments.
Tunnel link between Lot C and Lot D1 on the way. The tenders have been recently awarded (main contractors are Daewoo) with estimated March 2011 completion. Contract size is >RM30m.

Kuala Lumpur: With the completion of Lot C by the end of this year, KLCC Property Holdings Bhd will be looking at the development of Lot D1, another 0.6ha plot of land adjacent to Hotel Mandarin Oriental.

A development plan for the area is only expected to be finalised in about a year.

"As usual, this is a mixed development and the trend for us is to have a mixed component of retail and service apartment or retail and office, depending on the demand at that time," its chief executive officer Hashim Wahir said after KLCC Property's annual general meeting yesterday.

As part of its risk management measures, KLCC Property only begins building once tenancy and clients for a development have been firmed up.

KLCC Property expects to complete the development of the office tower in Lot C year-end.

Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas), which will be the sole tenant of the office tower with a net lettable area of 840,000 square feet (sq ft), is likely to move in early 2012. The tower will be known as Petronas Tower 3.

The retail component of the development has already been handed over to Suria KLCC Sdn Bhd and some 22 tenants have already signed up.

Full occupancy of the 140,000sq ft net lettable area is likely by September this year.

The retail and office components of the development are set to contribute about RM100 million a year to the group once fully occupied.

KLCC Property is also undertaking a refurbishment exercise of Menara Dayabumi, a 26-year-old and 36-storey office building. Between RM30 million and RM40 million will be spent for the two-stage refurbishment work which is expected to be completed by the end of the year.

Another plan in the works is the redevelopment of City Point, a six-storey office-cum-retail-podium annexed to Menara Dayabumi.

"We hope to redevelop it to have additional office space and make the retail space more exciting," Hashim said.

Lot D1 land area is pretty small, dont think it will be a supertall..

lot C land area size is 1 acres. lot d land size (from parking lot next to MO until infront of one kl) is 1.5 acres.

building a 60-80 story towers is very much possible.

true. in dubai, a smaller plot land of 0.8 acres can fit a 120-storey residential tower (pentominium).

yes you'll be surprised how many floors or spaces you can add for tiny little land , when there's a will(money) there's a way for it .In HK some of the building is truly spectacular on very tiny plot of land.

Next to PTT, how to be too tall? Unless it hits the 350m mark, so as not to overshadow its glamorous neighbor!

And only the runner-up design is shown, what about the one that won the contest?

This is the runner up for a competition. In the competition, winner is another project for another country.

So this might be the final design if KLCC prop decide to use it.

You mean the Lot K expansion?

If so, I still think each of Mid Valley Megamall and Sunway Pyramid (after Expansion 3) is bigger.

I would love to see a mall in Lot D joined up with Lot C/Ramlee Expansion (just opened) + Suria KLCC + Lot K Expansion.

KUALA LUMPUR (Nov 22): KLCC PROPERTY HOLDINGS BHD [] and Qatari Investment Authority will undertake to build two towers to be built next to the Petronas Twin Towers.

"The two blocks -- an office tower and a hotel -- will sit on a four-storey podium retail block which will be integrated with the present four-storey retail mall," said Suria KLCC Sdn Bhd at the company's Media Day on Tuesday.

It said the development will be completed by 2015 and is expected to attract more local and international visitors to the mall.
It's integrated right..^^

I was thinking different mall. But they are all under KLCCP. So i believe it will be integrated like the LOT C's mall.

Although the new Lot K is designed to be integrated to Suria KLCC, I really hope this Qatari/KLCC venture will be a standalone mall with different name, different theme and different management. Just like the Four Seasons Place (if it gets build at all)...

the tunnel is multi-level, connected to Lot C concourse (besides RHB bank) and parking level.

Can someone post a master plan or mapping that point out which plot is Lot D? I still don't get it. I googled it and look into another KLCC thread but all are too low resolution to actually close up identification of each lot...
