The Residences – a luxurious address in the sky

POISED to become an iconic landmark located along Millionaires Row and a two-minute walk from the globally-renowned and captivating Petronas Twin Towers, Tropicana – The Residences, though still under construction, is already the talk of the town.
A sterling project under the Tropicana Corporation Berhad (Tropicana) property development portfolio, it is said to be one of the developer's most ambitious ventures, exuding top drawer characteristics and luxuriously-clad settings. From the swanky launch itself, at Marini's on 57, it is obvious that The Residences will luxuriate in all that is upscale, high-end and premium. In fact, the launch gambit, which incorporated the "biggest outdoor HD projection mapping screen in Malaysia", made it into the Malaysia Book of Records.
Exuding class, elegance and luxury at its launch, here are additional "golden nuggets" of information on KL's coming attraction, a "diamond in the sky".
