SETAPAK – SkyWorld Development Group finally unveiled its last tower of Bennington Residences at Setapak. The event was met with a positive response as it attracted close to 1,000 guests who showed up to view the units.
Guests, young and old alike, were treated to a host of activities that reflect the SkyArena active lifestyle. These include rock climbing, an inflatable obstacle course, Velcro dart football, and sand art painting. Throughout the day, lucky draws were held with prizes such as iPhones, iPads, Samsung phones and Nikon cameras given away.
Bennington Residences' final tower (Tower A) consists of 284 units of contemporary suites with built-up sizes ranging from 1,092 sq ft to 1,570 sq ft. Priced from RM610,000, the tower enjoys a host of amenities and state-of-the-art facilities boasting five new features that are amongst the first in Malaysia: the iconic loop pool, triplex SkyGym and SkyLounge, rainforest welcome lounge, as well as four-tier security.
The highly anticipated launch came on the heels of two important SkyWorld milestones:
1) January 2016 – Bennington Residences (Tower B), the second phase of SkyArena, was launched amidst positive response. Tower B boasts many innovative features and offers 296 units of residences with built-up ranging from 1,092 sq ft to 1,716 sq ft. To date, Tower B has recorded a high take-up rate of 91%. The available units are priced from RM720,000.
2) October 2016 – Ascenda Residence, Phase 1 of SkyArena, saw a successful topping off ceremony and this project is expected to be completed three months ahead of schedule. To add more good news for buyers, investors and the Setapak community at large, SkyWorld together with the Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) announced major upgrading infrastructure to and from the SkyArena development.

Present during the event was SkyWorld Development Group chief operating officer Lee Chee Seng.
"Setapak is a well-known suburb, just 15 minutes from the KL city centre and near to the National Zoo. It is a favourite place for the locals and students who are from the Tunku Abdul Rahman University College and the nearby Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, in addition to Columbia Hospital.
"With its strategic location, Setapak is truly a gem in the making and SkyWorld will transform the area to be the next pulse with its modern designer towers as the feature point, and unique multi-storey cutting edge sports facilities," enthused Lee.
"We see the great potential that is present in Setapak. With the new infrastructure expansion plan – the addition of the new 1km flyover from Jalan Genting KElang into Jalan Ayer Jerneh, and the 100ft road widening initiatives along Jalan Ayer Jerneh – this will definitely improve the traffic flow and provide the Setapak community with easier access to the DUKE highway," he added.
