Analysis
Though the building is more than 30 years old, Menara KH is still considered a good investment. Yes, it has lots to do with its prominent location, which generates high human traffic. And also the fact that it has recently undergone a face lift of its lobby and podium facade. The office tower is expected to be upgraded in the next phase.
The Heli Lounge Bar KL on the ‘36th floor’ that opens from 6 pm daily is one of Kuala Lumpur best kept secret. Visitors can enjoy their drink on the open air helipad while watching the sunset. The 360 degree view on the rooftop is undisrupted with the absence of fencing or barriers, hence, visitors have to watch out for themselves here.
Comparatively, the rental at MAS Building ranges from RM3.50 to RM4.50 psf is considerably lower than that of its neighboring office buildings such as Wisma Genting at RM5.80 psf and Menara Dion at up to RM12.00 psf. main tenants of the building include Orix, Hijjas Kasturi Architects and Prudential.
