Always very curious why the Block N/Hotel is partially blocked by the SOHO block. Worse still, sharp corners of the SOHO block are pointing at the Block N

There is enough space between the SOHO Block and Block E to fit in the whole Block N, right?

Just curious, what is your definition of high end condo or luxury condo?

If not qualify as high end, then will fall under medium range? Is there a classification, haha, like hotel, how many stars...

You gotta ask CaptainCool...he used that word...I am equally curious too..

Yes....There is enough space(the green slope) between the BlkH and BlkE to fit in the whole BlkN.
Infact, from the model displayed at Ekovest sales gallery, the green slope is just there and not utilized.

It is also unclear to me as to why developer did not utilize that slope.
Owner(Church/Convent?) not selling?
Save money vs more cost to purchase that piece of slope?

That green slope is a church land and EKC did attempt to buy over the land but it wasn't for sale.

Well,I have no specific answers to your question,no stars rating or guide book but it's just my feeling. Well,I look at the design, the whole concept planning, the facilities and so on. Number 1,it's gonna be the iconic structure of Cheras,for example the capers n fennel of Sentul I consider it high End too. 2nd, the design is very modernish,but this is only assumed from their model. Do you consider the icon residences at mont kiara by mashing to be high end? Yes I do
3rdly, the whole mix development comes with residential,commercial,retail,office,cinema,hotel and so on. So for me it's a self contained development with a gdv around 1billion? My assumptions again,with that kind of money involved,it's another criteria for high end properties. Last but not least the facilities,sky bar sky lounge sky pool it's like whatever facilities that you want it's there(normal requirements), so that ticks another box for me.
Feel free to share other comments if u think otherwise,maybe some will say the selling price doesn't warrant it to be high end,but to me it's just because of location,and consider urself getting an unpolished gem for whoever owns a piece of the cake,maybe im just hypnotizing myself into buying that story,but hey if it makes urself feel better den why not?

Thanks for the answer.

With the green slope remains there, BlkN(north facing units) and BlkE(west facing units) will see green.

Hope the slope shades from evening sun for the low units of BlkE.

I think the rental these days can't fully cover the loan payment. House pricing has gone up much faster than rental could catch up. We should realise this point.

But with that said, people are still buying properties. Because people know that it is a way to preserve their wealth.

The reason I'm betting on EKC is the location plus MRT concept. I believe this is the future trend.

This project fully sold out?? Location+MRT is good idea.........Future Trend.....

Surely, this will be the centre of gravity in Cheras.

How about Cheras sentral ? Hahaha
