Eco centric establishment for KL North

Ekovest brings to Titiwangsa a first-of-its-kind, riverfront promenade and integrated retail mall.

EKOVEST Bhd hopes to revitalise the Jalan Pahang area with a revolutionary eco-development fit for patrons of all ages. The development will stand next to a riverfront promenade, a rare feature for most neighbouring buildings in the locale. The development, dubbed EkoRiver Centre, will be the first commercial development in Malaysia under the Kuala Lumpur River City (KLRC) master plan.

The EkoRiver Centre project is a 600,000 sq ft retail component spread over six floors, complete with a total of 3,000 basement and elevated car parks, with one of the mall’s floors solely dedicated as a convention facility.

The total net lettable area (NLA) of the retail mall stands at 400,000 sq ft while the convention centre reserves 130,000 sq ft. All 600,000 sq ft NLA of the commercial components will be held as assets to lease for recurring income. According to Ekovest, the tenancy mix is yet to be finalised.

The retail mall is scheduled for completion by 2018 and will be accessible via a grid located at Jalan Pahang and optionally from DUKE 2, which is set to complete by 2016. The parcel stands on a 7-acre plinth of freehold land.

Above the EkoRiver Centre will be an iconic 68-storey tower that will house corporate offices, a hotel offering hotel suites as well as VIP suites totalling up to 390 rooms. The establishment will also hold a 190,000 sq ft convention centre located at the highest floor of the retail mall, while the roof top of the mall will be a public park, accessed directly from the riverfront promenade via designated escalators.

The river promenade featured at EkoRiver Centre will be made accessible to the public via water taxis from Kuala Lumpur as well as river tours along this revived section of Sungai Gombak. Some planned water activities for the promenade include stage performances, cultural and tourist promotions and al fresco dining. Additionally, the river front is also fully accessible to the public.

 

One would wonder as to the inspiration that brought about such a magnificent concept for the future of this locale in north Kuala Lumpur. To this, Ekovest managing director Lim Keng Cheng explains, “The seamless integration of the KLRC master plan with urban transportation offered via the DUKE and the upcoming MRT2 line will rejuvenate this part of KL north, turning the area into a destination of choice.”

Lim adds, “The availability of leisure spaces, modern office suites and tourist attractions to showcase the diversity of Malaysian culture and shopping amenities located just minutes away from the city centre, will make this project popular as it mirrors existing projects, including the San Antonio Riverwalk (USA), the Cheonggyecheon River Restoration (South Korea), the Battersea Power Station (UK) as well as the UK Galleria in Hatfield.”

The architecture of the EkoRiver Centre is commendable, given the intertwining futuristic and natural accents painted across the development, thanks to Arkitek KDI Sdn Bhd (KDI) which is responsible for the EkoRiver Centre brainchild.

The company is also the appointed architect for Ekovest’s flagship 12-acre integrated commercial project known as EkoCheras at Jalan Cheras and other Ekovest’s key developments such as EkoAvenue, EkoQuay and EkoGateway in the capital city.

KDI holds a track record that speaks for itself, having completed major commercial mixed developments locally as well as abroad, including The Robertson (KL), Meena Plaza, C15 City of Light (Abu Dhabi) and Danga Bay (Johor).

The architect’s design for EkoRiver Centre reflects a rational approach, with a futuristic, iconic and integrated complex, bringing people from various locales to gather at a vibrant commercial and recreational hub to live, work and play. The design will also help to promote the KL River Centre as a tourist and shopping destination to relax and unwind.

In terms of safety, patrons can be rest assured as EkoRiver Centre will be equipped with state-of-the-art security system comprising entry and exit checkpoint barriers, CCTV systems, round the clock guard patrol with a central command station and latest card access system for authorised access to the respective components of the centre, including the car parking facility.

For those looking to call EkoRiver Centre home, the idea is not far-fetched as in June this year, one of Ekovest’s three EkoTitiwangsa towers was launched, enjoying up to 90% in sales as of now. Units are sold from RM800 per sq ft feet for a typical 825 sq ft unit.

“The units sold at EkoTitiwangsa reflect the current pricing regime in the area for residential service apartments and looking at the entire master plan, this is a low entry price to own a property in an upcoming area in KL north,” Lim says. The EkoTitiwangsa service apartments commenced in July 2015 and are expected for completion in early 2019.

Until being convinced for its debut mixed development, no further egg will be placed into Eko-bucket...
There are plenty of Eko projects along the river. No rush for me. You?

I learnt from Parkhill forum..

First, type-in the Nama Projek(eg Ekotitiwangsa) under Nama Projek of this link...
http://idaman2.kpkt.gov.my:8888/idv5/98_eH...dde8c&CFTOKEN=0

Then, new page will show up.... click on the underlined Ekotitiwangsa and look for Kod Pemaju and Fasa.

Third, substitute the kod pemaju, fasa and projek to the following link for parkhill ...and you will get the same results l posted...
http://idaman2.kpkt.gov.my:8888/idv5/98_eH...20residence%202

Hope they can get some support like the way they get for duke3.

FYI....

http://www.propertylifestyle.com.my/buzz/e...nt-for-kl-north

Still haven't seen them updating the idaman to reflect the sales scenario above.....

I believe what you said was what you saw from the gallery charts/pc. No question on that part.

In fact, l had randomly checked on the Idaman site a few times (using the provided link) and didn't see any update on the patero part for a long time.

When l talked to them a while ago, they didn't provide a clear answer.
So, my question in previous post was an attempt to ask if anyone had the internal info.... That's all

Just FYI... Check out item two from the article.....

2) Kuala Lumpur River City

Imagine waking up to the sound of flowing water, with nature right at your doorstep. That dream is about to become a reality with a home in the stunning Kuala Lumpur River City(KLRC) project by Ekovest Bhd. Stretching for 3km along the banks of the Gombak River, there are some exciting components making up this development: EkoGateway, EkoQuay, EkoTitiwangsa and EkoRiver Centre to name a few.

Come home to a vibrant environment, be it for business, living, leisure, shopping or hospitality purposes.

EkoTitiwangsa is the first launch in this ambitious project, comprising three freehold residential towers with a gross development value (GDV) of RM600mil. 696 contemporary units await potential homebuyers, promising a redefined city living with thoughtfully-planned layouts.

Tower C, which was launched first, has 270 units with a built-up ranging from 825 to 1,240 sq ft with a price of RM750 to RM1,200 per sq ft. All three towers have a targeted completion date by 2018.

Residents will be able to relax and unwind with the myriad of facilities available, from infinity pools, Jacuzzi and sauna, to the multipurpose hall, gymnasium and children’s playground. To further seal this masterplan as a holistic lifestyle hub, there will be the EkoRiver Centre to look forward to, an iconic retail component of 600,000m sq ft.

Overall, KLRC is poised to become a pivotal integrated development, where transportation via road, rail and river (3R) will converge under one address.

You may ask the author t9 confirm...

I guess they get it from the developer.
This is the initial date given by developer if not mistaken.

On another project, this developer waited long time since last update (few years back) until just recently ...

I was told by their SA, back in 2015, that 70% of block C has been sold but the Idaman site has yet been reflected.

It is fair that everyone has his/her hypothesis or guessing for now.

Suggestion, talk to the developer nicely to update the Idaman site. Once they had updated it, the data is more reliable.

I quoted what l heard from SA.
I didn't say who is lying or system problem.
All I mentioned is that, without the idaman system updated, macam-macam hypothesis can arise.
Today at least we read 45% from the article and should use it as "official" reference for discussion...
Let's keep this number to monitor along the way....
