Haha I think it is quite a distance. Unavoidable view in surrounding condo...

I have no absolute answer until seeing the actual orientation/angle of BlkJ and parcel windows.
For now, intermediate units should be hindered by the glass angle from seeing the cemetery.
That is why l mentioned high floor units next to hotel, ie corner units taller than MRR2 that have window towards the west, should see cemetery.

Again, the actual building orientation will confirm the actual scene.

So all depend on luck if the unit not cemetary view. Most buyer may not aware whn tbey bought their unit.Good luck.

Haha.. Cemetary is just small part of the panorama view n nothing scary.. It is a place where everyone will be there.

CaptainCool, Best buy regardless of cemetery view.

Block J: High floor, South facing, Non MRT facing

No RM 900+ psf No Sell

lol, u serious boh? come la, i sell to u now, 850 psf on?
hahaha
thanks anyway, just joking la.... will keep and see how, if rental ok will probably go for rental first.

Bro, it is difficult to predict rental after 4 years later once the Mrt is completed. Unless u were able to predict the property price up so much since year 2009?

There is mrt 2-3 coming soon also the high speed rail to Singapore.

I have been staying at my parents' house for 25 years in which the balcony has a view of the Kwongtong cemetery (higher ground side)
Open the balcony door/window , see hill......cemetery hill.
Not a big deal to me.

In fact, the cemetery has been there even before Cheras having highrise.

Comparing to the house l stayed in terms of cemetery view, BlkJ&H are really further away and only some units can see...

agree, this is like so far away..... i bet any highrise with a good view also can see cemetery or some sorts nearer or further.... just if pantang dont get those which is directly beside or opposite den ok ady la for me.....

Do u think the next progress billing 10% coming soon ..?

From investing point of view, this not good. For own stay, if got choice, for sure you also wont prefer cemetary view.

Becoz there will be basement, have they started digging underground?

After that, piling has to be completed before the next 10% billing....will they work on the SOHO n Block E first or the shopping mall first or both concurrently?

Probably only in 2015

This is a 4 years project, 1 year longer than normal 3 years project

Cheras Lang prefer stay at cheras!?

I saw they digged hole for underground a few months back ... And also saw them filling in soil recently.
Not sure why..

With underground basement until B3 and covering such a large area, it should be a big job and more than just digging holes...they even need to manage the earth dug out

I doubt EKC can complete in 4 yrs. 4.5 to 5yrs more likely. Massive jobs....

Yes l will choose to avoid if there is a chance.
If l couldn't then l will learn to get used to it.

Just my opinion, there are two sides of a coin.
Agree at the disadvantages above.

The other side of view is that, the traditional ethnic cemetery eg Kwongtong cemetery does provide justification to KL history.
It is a reference for archeology study to sustain the truth of KL history.

Back in the 1990-2000s, the Kwongtong cemetery at Sg Besi was suggested be dugged and cleared for development. Imagine the bones of Yap Ah Loy and its generation were removed from the cemetery, where else that KL history has its anchor reference?

The previous generation who have been thru a hard life and finally laid to rest, are still contributing to sustain KL history.

These types of traditional cemeteries are just a few left in KL area and had been taken over by the commercial based cemeteries.

By thinking from this angle, it helps me to feel better.

Well said daikor,but to me as I said as long as not directly opposite or beside me den it doesn't really bother me la.

So to speak,if put into a situation that 2 units available,everything similar one with cemetery view far away 1 without den of course take the 1 without,but if price difference is 5k n above den I'd take the cheaper 1 without any doubt.

Exactly my feelings... well written..
