Past & Future Alongside River

Kinta Riverfront is a long term project to revive the glorious Kinta River after the collapse of tin market. On top of the 5-star hotel & luxury service apartment, something making it different from other development projects is the complete plan stretching few kilometers along Kinta River which consists of cafe, restaurant, landscaping, pedestrian bridges & even a mini museum. Although it is not world-class architecture, somehow the project at its completion is expected to beautify Ipoh city center. Also, the mini museum displaying tin industry, particularly in Kinta Valley, is a great effort to share the history of Ipoh's establishment & the hard work of our ancestors to grow this city from a small village.

The master piece of this project, the luxury service apartment & hotel building, is progressing intensively. The apartment block has reached its top floor and is now one of the tallest buildings in Ipoh. It is also the second building after 28 years that achieves 20 floors, apart from Kinta Heights. However, it is probably at same height above sea level with other tall buildings, such as the 17-storey Tower Regency Hotel, because it is standing at a lower ground. By the way, the neighbouring hotel block is catching up and will reach almost the same height at its 19th floor.
