The second block of the Wharf Residence waterfront apartments which offers integrated lifestyle living in Taman Tasik Prima was launched on April 14. The three-in-one lifestyle development includes boutique showroom offices, flexi suites, serviced apartments and a retail mall.

“Tower 18 is the second of our three-tower waterfront condo series and has 334 units, many of which have an unrivalled view of Tasik Prima,” said Bolton Bhd executive chairperson Datuk Azman Yahya after launching Tower 18 at the Bolton showroom along Jln PU 12/7B in Puchong Utama.

Tower 18’s 33-storey block has been orientated to ensure the units enjoy an excellent view of the surrounding 80.94-hectare Tasik Prima.

With a gross floor area of 506,510 sq ft and 1,296 parking lots, the mall promises to be a convenient focal point for the Wharf’s community.

The mall, scheduled for completion next year, will also cater to residents from surrounding townships with easy accessibility via the Damansara-Puchong Highway (LDP), Bukit Jalil Highway and Shah Alam Expressway (Kesas).

“As we are a new neighbourhood, there is still not much traffic around so we enjoy good accessibility,” said Bolton Bhd non-independent executive director Chan Wing Kwong.
