Quill City
Mall, the latest prestigious landmark along Jalan Sultan Ismail in Kuala Lumpur celebrated its grand launch on 18 January 2015 in colourful splendor. Held on an
auspicious day bearing significance to the mall’s lot number – Lot 1018 - the

Minister of Tourism and Culture Malaysia.
The Kuen Cheng High School Wind Orchestra and Kuen Cheng High School 24
Seasonal Drum bands together with 18 lion dance troupes added to the merriment as
the Minister was welcomed by Dato’ Dr Jennifer Low, Group Managing Director and
Dato’ Michael Ong, Group Executive Director of the Quill Group of Companies.
Also in attendance was Kuala Lumpur Mayor, YBhg Datuk Seri Hj Ahmad Phesal Hj
Talib.
In conjunction with its grand launch, Quill City Mall was a hive of
activity throughout the weekend, in celebration of its status as a major
shopping, dining, entertainment and leisure destination for locals and tourists
alike.
At the top on the agenda for the weekend is a special showcase by K-Much,
a K-Pop group comprising members Kiu, Bornus, G.Low and Ato who released their
debut mini album ‘Beyond the Ocean’ in January 2014. There were also
performances by Malaysian singer Candy Ice, Quill Hip Hop Dancers, Flash Mob,
and Bubble Artist Jeff Leong as well as fun activities for the entire family.
In
his welcome speech, Dato’ Michael Ong, Group Executive Director of the Quill
Group of Companies said, “This is a new icon in the heart of KL’s Golden Triangle.
It has 770,000 square feet of nett retail space fronting the bustling Jalan
Sultan Ismail. Quill City Mall will serve as an attractive and convenient hub
for those living and working in the Golden Triangle and surrounding areas.
“Quill
City Mall is part of a greater project by Quill. This includes a 36-storey
residential building and a hotel with service apartments. With these integrated
components, the Quill City development is poised to become the ‘next big thing’
in the heart of KL,” added Dato’ Michael Ong.
Quill
City Mall's unique features include:
•
The first-ever sky alfresco dining experience in Malaysia , with
breathtaking views of the surrounding cityscape.
•
A specially designed roof made of multi-coloured glass and
opaque panels to maximize natural lighting. The roof complements the
overall aesthetics of the mall, with the effect of a floating cloud above the
alfresco terrace, setting a refreshing scene of the KL skyline for patrons as
they shop and dine.
•
The mall’s frontage
contains a facade which is the longest in
the country at over 200 metres, created to complement the surrounding
commercial area and neighbourhood to complete Kuala Lumpur’s thriving city centre.
•
Visible from all areas of the mall is another first in Malaysia – a
floating media pod in the form of a 2 level space that projects live broadcast
of events, advertising and promotions, creating different moods within the
mall, while helping to bring the extended community together with shoppers
through exciting events and initiatives.
