The Light City

The Light City, located on the eastern coastline of Penang Island, will be one of the city’s first mega integrated waterfront icons. It is expected to offer premium living by the sea, an unparalleled retail mall with waterside dining, the largest convention centre in Penang, as well as world-class offices and international hotels. Imbued with Penang's cultural heritage, the retail and entertainment components will feature Penang's charming historical architecture and renowned hawker food fare, making it a 'must-see' waterfront precinct for locals and tourists in the bustling city. The Light City will enjoy excellent transport connectivity via land, rail and air. It is strategically situated about 1 kilometre (“km”) from the famous Penang Bridge and about 12 km from the Penang Second Bridge, linking Penang Island to mainland Malaysia. The integrated development is also about 5 km from Penang's capital, George Town, 16 km from the Penang International Airport, and is easily accessible via the Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway and a planned Light Rail Transit system. The landmark integrated development is being developed in two phases. The first phase includes the retail mall, convention centre, hotel and office components, as well as the first residential phase, Mezzo. The Light City features a dynamic mix of commercial and residential components namely a retail mall, hotels, an office tower, luxurious highrise residences and a convention centre. When completed, The Light City is poised to emerge as one of Penang’s most prominent waterfront destinations for world-class shopping, hospitality, business, lifestyle, events and many more.
