Pablo, this is Sunrise Tower and it is the first high rise in Gurney. i r right:D

i think the location is OK. the 2 blocks of gurney park, the regency and the stupid uncompleted hotel near Gurney Plaza have thier view little bit blocked by each other, but i love that part very much. i think the 11 gurney drive, gurney hotel, 1persiaraan gurney, evergreen laurel + those in Northam road will be much more cool
Pablo February 6th, 2004, 01:30 PM Seed> i think built it at that place is okay...most of the buildings which built in gurney, their design are quite similar...and the height is suitable in gurney too...i hate building which is not more than 25 stories built in Gurney:rant: But luckily 11 Gurney is over 32 stories..thank god:)

if i have a choice, i think i will put a 30+ story building somewhere else. this is bcoz u can seldom find buildings with such height outside gurney in Penang. i hope halaman krystal put a start on having 30+ story buildings near George Town area (actually quite far from geore town lah:D )

Each unit is provided with a generous amount of parking spaces – 3 spaces per unit.
The approximate areas for each of the unit types are:-

Penang famed sea beaches are only a stone throw away. One can find the city’s conveniences just around the corner. Shopping, hotels, entertainment outlets, and famed restaurants are within 5 minutes walking distance.
Suited right at the doorstep is Penang famous sea front promenade known locally as simply Gurney Drive. The promenade is well known for its local hawkers’ food offering – a paradise for food connoisseur. Unending fresh sea breezes make morning and evening walks along the promenade a delight.

TYW March 12th, 2004, 03:00 PM About 11 Gurney Drive
http://www.11gurneydrive.com/images/pic_06a.jpg
Design Philosophy
The elegant tower described here will set a new benchmark not only for its international standards of quality, it will also change our perceptions of high rise living through the attention to meticulous detail in every aspect of its design which is worthy of such prestigious address along Penang's most prime waterfront. It is the culmination of our uncompromising effort based on our intimate understanding of what privileged dwelling in Malaysia really means: a deep consideration of the manner in which our activities and needs are affected by contemporary living in a tropical monsoon climate.
This development concerns core values about dwelling and lifestyles, issues that can normally only be addressed in the most exclusive bungalow designs, almost never in a condominium development. It is about placing the building not in contrast to but as an extension of its environment, about clean and open living spaces configured to welcome daylight, sunlit mornings and guests.
It is also about providing sufficient natural ventilation for a house to feel aerated and larger windows for the pleasure of pooled sunlight. About build in linen cabinets and living room-sized balconies.
It is about wrapping a building and each carefully placed unit in its context of sunlight, sea and wind.
TYW March 12th, 2004, 03:01 PM http://www.11gurneydrive.com/images/Location-map.jpg
Site
We begin with the Golden Mile of Gurney Drive, Millionaire's Row, home to number of existing high and condominiums, apartments and historical mansions along a boulevard facing the tide and sea breeze, lined by established rows of casuarinas and hardwoods.
The development sits on a rectangular site, facing the Straits: the elegant columns of 60 spacious units gathered in a group by the sea edge as lantern towers for the address. On the opposite end past a garden terrace pool are two exclusive villas with the hills of Penang forming the background.
Sixty plus two. Sixty two units in all. Magic numbers if one were to dream of low density exclusivity, open spaces and a privileged population.
Or general seclusion, landscaped lanais and private lobbies.
And the quiet road home.

TYW December 11th, 2004, 02:01 PM Hunza plans RM700mil project in Gurney Drive
HUNZA Properties Bhd plans to launch, in the first quarter of 2006, a RM700mil high-end mixed development in Gurney Drive, the renowned sea-front promenade on the island.
Group executive chairman Datuk Khor Teng Tong told reporters after the company AGM yesterday the project, located on a 10.21-acre site fronting both Gurney Drive and Kelawei Road, would comprise a shopping complex, small-home offices, and serviced and studio apartments.
“The 10.21-acre site was purchased recently from The Visitor in the Federation of Malaya of the Christian Brothers' Schools for a cash consideration of RM97mil,” he said, adding that the Gurney Drive project was scheduled for completion in 2008.
There will be 1.8mil sq ft of saleable space, of which 300,000 sq ft will be allocated for small-home offices and serviced apartments, and 200,000 sq ft for studio apartments.
The home offices will have built-up of 600 and 700 sq ft, the studio apartments built-up of 500 sq ft, and serviced apartments built-up of 1,000 sq ft.
Between 600,000 and 700,000 sq ft will be allocated for the shopping complex, Khor said, adding that the group's headquarters would also be located on the 10.21-acre site.
He said the group targeted to generate RM2.54bil in revenue from its six projects, of which three were on-going – Bandar Putra Bertam in Kepala Batas, Sungai Lalang in Sungai Petani, and Tanjung Bungah in Penang.
The projects in Kepala Batas and Sungai Petani comprise landed residential properties; and that in Tanjung Bungah, luxurious condominiums, villas, and bungalows.
The other three projects all to be launched in the first quarter of 2006 are a mixed residential gated community in Seputeh in Kuala Lumpur targeted at the higher-income market, a luxurious super-condominium scheme at Tanjung Bungah in Penang, and the Gurney Drive project.
Meanwhile, Yayasan Bumiputra Pulau Pinang Bhd director Syed Mohd Aidid Syed Murtaza said the foundation recently acquired a 32% stake in Hunza Consolidated Bhd because it needed a listed vehicle.
“We will unveil our business plans for Hunza Consolidated soon,” he said, adding that Yayasan also owned a 9% stake in Hunza Properties.

Pablo December 14th, 2004, 08:53 PM eh guys,mana nice to go around Gurney drive ah?plannin to go over next month
Coming to Penang on january 2005?
Gurney Drive...maybe u can taste the penang food there..there will be many stalls selling penang food just beside Gurney Plaza..If u would like to taste those food in the classy place, i suggest u go to Northam Cafe..It is just like a normal kopitiam, but look more classy. These two places only sell food in the evening...Northam cafe is not at Gurney Drive..it is near to Gurney Drive..but u still can walk there..it will take u about 10 mins to reach there..it is in front of MBF tower. So, u can sambil walk there sambil look at the buildings in Penang lo..
There r many kiosk in gurney plaza, like Dome, Secret Recepy, Star buck, Coffe bean and etc. If u feel u have nothing to do..u can always shopping inside the Gurney Plaza..At night, there will be many crowd walking and sitting along the beach.
Mostly, ppl went to Gurney Drive is to makan and bersiar-siar saje...u'll never afraid on can't find anything to eat in Gurney Drive..cafes are everywhere;)
BTW..i'm please to meet u if u like to do so..;)

Magician April 7th, 2005, 07:06 AM How tall will they build?
TYW April 7th, 2005, 01:01 PM How tall will they build?
no idea??
but it is supposed to have a mall in that project as well.
Magician April 7th, 2005, 03:41 PM Mall again?? haha this time dunno which mall will close down...
TYW April 8th, 2005, 08:32 AM Mall again?? haha this time dunno which mall will close down...
hopefully none!!
i wish this mall has a different concept as others and creates a reason for people to go there but yet doesn't cause others to close down.
