By now, frequenters of the Damansara Heights area will have noticed the hustle and bustle of construction at the site that used to house government offices of Damansara City Centre.

If you’ve been wondering what will be taking its place, the answer is Damansara City, the integrated development that is being hailed as the new rising jewel of Damansara Heights, one meant to breathe new life to the established high-end enclave.

The first mixed development at the much sought-after address, Damansara City spans across 8.5 acres of prime freehold land. RM2.5million from GuocoLand Malaysia will result in 2 luxury high-rise residences, two Grade-A office towers, an open street concept lifestyle mall and a 5-star hotel. 

The vision with the development is to present an ultra-modern living and working area that, at the same time, remains environmentally friendly. Every aspect of the building will be constructed to be compliant with the Green Building Index Certified rating so the development may blend itself into the green surroundings of the opulent neighbourhood.
 

 

DC Residency

Those who yearn a slice of urban metropolitan living laced with unrivalled luxury will find it at the upscale DC Residency, made up of two 28-storey residential towers. Between Tower A and B, 370 contemporary designed serviced apartments, ranging from the private and cosy 1-bedroom 899 square feet studios to 3+1 bedroom 2,975 square feet suites, await new owners.

Unrivalled facilities like an Olympic-length salt water infinity pool, aqua gymnasium, cabana, landscape garden and more,  along with premium fittings of Poggen pohl kitchen cabinets, Catalano sanitary wares, Gessi Emporio Armani range fittings promise a stay that will meet all your lifestyle needs.
 

DC Mall

A retail podium that will host a myriad of award-winning F&B outlets serves as another star attraction of the place for both residents and tenants. The DC Mall will offer a journey of international and local epicurean delights. Restaurants, cafes, bistros and bars will spread across 4 floors and a rooftop terrace. 

For the first time despite the heat that is synonymous with our tropical climate, you will want to opt for the alfresco seats as the entire podium will feature natural ventilation, vertical gardens on feature walls and a modern landscaped 2-tier roof garden with spaces for relaxation and outdoor performances.

 

Office Towers

Here is one place where work will meld seamlessly with play. Two office towers  -- Tower A and B – will be part of Damansara City with each boasting 39 and 23 storeys respectively. Both are specifically designed with generous unencumbered floor plates to maximise flexibility in meeting the functional requirements of new businesses in the information age. 

 

All the above will see daylight alongside a 5-star hotel although no information has yet been released in regards to the brand.

Construction work on Damansara City has started since September 2011 and it is expected to see completion by 2016.
