THE much awaited Sri Terengganu flats redevelopment project in Sentul, Kuala Lumpur, has begun with the demolition of the old buildings.
One block has been demolished while developers Asie Sdn Bhd and architects, Goh Hock Guan and Associates, are preparing to bring down another one.
Safety nets have been installed and the demolition exercise for the 17-storey block facing Jalan Sentul will be completed in the next two weeks.
Architect Low Chee Hoo said the demolition would be safe despite the proximity with Block A which is still occupied,” he said.
Nets installed: The demolition will be safe despite the proximity with Block A nearby that is still occupied. Low added that everything would be done within the building which would ensure the safety of those in the area.
The flats have been vacant for a number of years and the empty blocks were used by drug addicts in the past.
Redevelopment involving one block of 16-storey flats is expected to begin early next year after the developers have been given the approval.
There will be 228 units measuring 60.39sq m with three bedrooms and two bathrooms each.
Kuala Lumpur City Hall media officer Zurida Hashim said the flats would be handed over to them upon completion.
“The units will be given to residents still staying in Block A who bought the units when they were residing in the now empty Pekeliling Flats in Jalan Pahang,” said Zurida.
