Iconic Lifestyle Quarter for Kuala Lumpur

A US$1.4bn, 17-acre “Lifestyle Quarter” is to be developed in a new financial district in the Malaysian capital Kuala Lumpur, called Tun Razak Exchange (TRX).

A retail-led mixed-use development, the Lifestyle Quarter will see Lend Lease own 60% in partnership with Malaysian state-owned real estate company, 1MDB. Lend Lease previously worked on Malaysian projects which included the Petronas Twin Towers.

The quarter will have a mall, residential towers and a hotel connected to a multi-layer central park, plus the largest MRT station in the city.

Rod Leaver, CEO for Lend Lease in Asia, said TRX would be “an iconic destination”.
