POINT 92 may be the only purpose-built office with certificates for both a Green Building Index (GBI) and MSC-status coming into the Petaling Jaya market over the next 12 months.
The Grade A building, located in Damansara Perdana next to the PJ Trade Centre will be ready for occupation in mid-September.
Zerin Properties’ head for mergers and acquisitions-business space Shuchita Balasingam said that the building is already MSC compliant and is awaiting its MSC certification. Point92 is already GBI certified.
In a recent interview with Business Times, Shuchita said that the infrastructure and design of the building will be well suited for use as a call centre or for technology, technology related businesses.
Zerin and Hartamas Real Estate Sdn Bhd are the joint exclusive agents for the property.
Point 92, so named because of the 0.92 acre (0.37ha) land it sits on, was developed by Tujuan Gemilang Sdn Bhd. It was then acquired by Obyu Holdings Sdn Bhd, an investment company with business in development and oil palm.
The 19-storey building has 203,000 sq ft of gross floor area and a total net lettable area of 155,000 sq ft. According to Shuchita, the rental at the building including service charge would be between RM4.80 and RM5.80 per sq ft.
The contemporary commercial building, designed by architect firm ZLG Design Sdn Bhd, creates dramatic space. The first floor has an open air deck and which overlooks the main entry point into Damansara Perdana.
“The distinct design and structure appeals to technology based firms,” she said, adding that it has received enquiries from both technology firms and those who are keen to set up their call centres there.
As a GBI building, it allows light to flow in but at the same time prevents access heat from coming in. This building will have 400 car park bays spread over seven floors.
For every 500 sq ft of space rented, the tenant will be allocated a single parking bay.
