Pearl Regency by IJM
Wednesday, January 05, 2011, 5:10:37 PM | noreply@blogger.com (Adrian/ Rachel)
The skybridge. The international activity centre. A 3-story shopping mall. Another skybridge, linking to more shopping at a Tesco Hypermarket. Prime property for a thriving global community.
This is Pearl Regency - a sophisticated, stylistic Penang address encompassing a vibrant residential and commercial hub built for an international community. Developed by the prolific IJM Properties, everything about this concept resort development is simply well thought of.
Within the secure confines of this urban paradise are 574 private, luxury residences - Block A with cozier units (2 bedrooms) and Block B with deluxe family suites (3 bedrooms) and ritzy penthouses. Your designer home comes complete with details like air-conditioning, kitchen cabinets (hob & hoob), a refrigerator, an oven, fully-fitted wardrobe in all bedrooms, hot water and an oriental shower tub. Dawn or dusk, breathtaking sky-sea-and-bridge views paint beautiful moods from right outside your home.
Surrounding your optimized private space is a resort environment detailed in a contemporary Asian fashion. Lush landscaping, charming open courtyards, designer pools and water features highlight the foreign-fusion inspired architecture of Pearl Regency.
Sky-living extends outside your home with thrilling sky gardens and sky bridges. Lifestyle amenities cater to the needs and wants of an international community - shopping, services, ample parking, security features, recreational facilities and lifestyle programs.
The strategic space planning of Pearl Regency perfectly fits its strategic location in coastal Metro-East Penang. The Penang Bridge, Tesco and e-Gate, a popular retail and F&B hub are minutes away, while going to the George Town city centre, Queensbay Mall, the Penang International Airport, Bukit Jambul Golf and Country Club and the Free Industrial Zone will just take several minutes more.

Old vs New
Tuesday, November 02, 2010, 11:52:36 PM | noreply@blogger.com (Adrian/ Rachel)
Penang has always had a mystical charm over many who have ventured to its shores. Sadly some of this charm has been lost due to the rapid development and modernization that goes hand in hand with a developing economy and scarcity of land.
Straits Properties would like to take a moment to pause and reflect on what made Penang so attractive to people of all walks of life, race and religious beliefs. In this post we will be going through the history of Penang through time by publishing authentic photographs which helps to remind us of the rich heritage we share and the need to blend future development with our rich historical past.
Enjoy.
George Town was founded in 1786 by Captain Francis Light, a trader for the British East India Company, as base for the company in the Malay States. He obtained the island of Penang from the Sultan of Kedah and built Fort Cornwallis on the north-eastern corner of the island. The fort became the nexus of a growing trading post and the island's population reached 12,000 by 1804. The town was built on swampy land that had to be cleared of vegetation, levelled and filled. The original commercial town was laid out between Light Street, Beach Street (then running close to the seashore), Malabar Street (subsequently called Chulia Street) and Pitt Street (now called Masjid Kapitan Keling Street).
At the turn of the 19th century, the northern section of Beach Street and the adjacent Bishop's Street were the ‘high street’ where the ‘modern’ European emporium and stores selling imported merchandise were situated.
Over the years immigrants from all over the world made Penang their home. Though many of them no longer impose a felt presence today, their memory lives on in place names such as Burma Road, Rangoon Road, Siam Road, Armenian Street, Acheen Street, Gottlieb Road, and Katz Street, and the Jewish Cemetery.
Owing to its long colonial history, many British colonial buildings can still be seen today. Such buildings include the City Hall, the Town Hall, the Eastern and Oriental Hotel, the Old Court House, Suffolk House built upon the pepper estate established by the first lieutenant for the island Francis Light and built by W.E.Phillips and subsequently used by governors until 1836 when it fell into private hands.
"History cannot give us a program for the future, but it can give us a fuller understanding of ourselves, and of our common humanity, so that we can better face the future."

Spurred by a commitment to preserving historical legacies, The Rice Miller Project is a mixed use real estate development in a UNESCO World Heritage Site in George Town.

City Living in a Heritage Setting - Enjoy History in Luxury.
The Rice Miller Hotel and Residence is a unique haven in a comfortable, safe, resort-style environment - offering a complete lifestyle in the heart of the port-city, not just near the port-city. Soothing pastels predominate in the resort.
