I AM A CITY SLICKER AND ST MARY FITS THE BILL NICELY.
LOCATED ON JALAN SULTAN ISMAIL AND NEXT TO WHAT USED TO BE MALAYSIA AIRLINES HEADQUARTERS, ST MARY'S OWNERS WERE GIVEN THE KEYS ON 2 AUGUST 2012.
I was there for a photo shoot for NewMan magazine as I am the Face of Malaysian Fashion so I got to have a lookee at the showflat since the Creative Director and Editor Eugene insisted I should be photographed sprawled on the bed as this is my favorite position as I am very adventurous in bed.
Anyway I was so impressed by the set-up, lay-out and hang-out of St Mary I thought it is my religious duty to share the good news with my legion of rich and powerful friends in case some may missed out from incessant jetsetting.
I wonder if there is a religious overtone since this is the first time a highclass condo is named after a Christian saint. Soon we will have another saint, St Regis condos at Sentral so we are getting quite religious. As a living saint myself, call me St Kee, I am pleased that Christianity and St Mary, Mother Mary, Virgin Mary, the Blessed Mother of God, is shown such respect as an upmarket condo is named in her honour.
Or St Mary can refer to St Mary Magdalene, the former prostitute who found grace in Jesus Christ. Some believe she even secretly married Jesus Christ so some of us are His descendants and may carry the blood of Jesus, omigod!
Buddha was married and had children before He became enlightened and I know I am His direct descendant destined to save mankind from despair, destruction and death. So I am a Boddhsattva or Living Buddha.
But we are digressing...
Back to St Mary Residences which is not too far from St Mary Anglican Cathedral on Jalan Raja next to Dataran Merdeka.
Of course St Mary Residences is a class act and will have a high-end but affordable eatery Deli-cious which happens to be owned by E and O the developer of St Mary and a host of others of similar ilk.
The cheapest flat for members of the lower class is RM 1.5 million while high class folks like us should move in instantly to the penthouses which hover around RM 12 million.
