Sri Seltra Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of City Motors Group, has launched two skyscraper projects, Alfa Bangsar and Bukit Bintang Gateway, within six months of each other in Kuala Lumpur. City Motors Group, with investments in oil palm plantation and aquaculture, owns the land on which the project sites are located.

Alfa Bangsar is a 46-story mixed-use development, while the Bukit Bintang Gateway project will be 51 stories with a 500-room hotel, serviced apartments and commercial podium along Bintang Walk.

Sri Seltra CEO Terence Chia said the two projects are part of CMG’s expansion into the luxury property segment and the hospitality industry. Both are mixed development projects comprising hotels, serviced apartments, and commercial offices with wellness hubs.

Construction is underway on Alfa Bangsar with completion anticipated mid-2023. Work will begin on Bukit Bintang Gateway in 2022 now that the company has received development approval from the Kuala Lumpur City Council.
