As Penang continues its transformation into a vibrant urban hub with global appeal, PDC Properties Sdn. Bhd. (PDCP) leads the way with thoughtful, community-driven developments. A wholly owned subsidiary of the Penang Development Corporation (PDC), PDCP is dedicated to delivering quality, innovative, and sustainable living spaces at attainable prices. From affordable housing to premium residences, PDCP’s projects are crafted to enhance the everyday lives of Penangites.

With a clear vision to enrich the urban landscape, PDCP’s current and upcoming projects showcase architectural excellence and a deeper narrative: one that respects the past while building for the future.

Legasi @ Burma: A Living Tribute to Penang’s Heritage

Among PDCP’s signature developments, Legasi@Burma is a heartfelt homage to Penang’s soul — reflected not only in architectural finesse but also deep respect for heritage. Located along Jalan Servis, Jalan Irrawadi and Jalan Chow Thye, just off historic Burma Road, this landmark is more than bricks and mortar. It blends memory, culture, and vision.

Central to the development is the restoration of 19 colonial-style shop lots, designated Conservation Category 2 and preserved in line with heritage guidelines. PDCP committed over two years to secure approvals and carefully plan every detail. The result: a bold engineering feat where the entire row of shop lots was shifted forward — intact — to make way for new elements without dismantling a single façade.

Behind the conserved buildings rise a 27-storey condominium tower and a 16-storey office suite, linked by a vibrant retail podium. Together, they form a mixed-use development bridging past and present.

The architectural philosophy centers on harmony. Restored colonial shop lots tell Penang’s layered history and the communities that enlivened them. Meanwhile, modern towers symbolize progres — Penang’s rise as a cosmopolitan city ready for the future.

For PDCP CEO, Ir. Ismail Ishak, this project carries deep meaning. Raised in the very neighbourhood, his connection to the people and urban fabric shapes the vision. “We are not just preserving the legacy,” he says. “We are building legacies.”

Beyond architecture, PDCP is committed to giving back by enriching communities, supporting cultural continuity, and fostering sustainable growth – ensuring progress benefits all.

The project includes:

• 138 office suites
• 361 residential condominiums
• 15 retail podium units
• restoration and upgrading of 19 shop houses

With Legasi@Burma, PDCP tells a story of continuity, care, and identity. This development is poised to become a landmark on the global stage of iconic urban regeneration – alongside Bugis Junction in Singapore and Xintiandi in Shanghai. It is where heritage meets the future, and where Penang’s spirit thrive.
