KL City Gateway: The Evolution of Kampung Sungai Baru
Just across from KLCC and seamlessly connected via the Saloma Bridge, Kampung Sungai Baru has long stood as a humble yet historically rich neighbourhood — a community rooted in tradition but visibly left behind in the wake of Kuala Lumpur’s rapid transformation.
Despite its prime location and deep cultural ties, the area has faced decades of underinvestment. Ageing flats, limited public infrastructure, and declining liveability have created an increasing disconnect between Kampung Sungai Baru and the modern city surrounding it.
Suezcap’s redevelopment of this area — now known as KL City Gateway — marks a pivotal moment in the city’s urban evolution. This transformative initiative reimagines Kampung Sungai Baru as a vibrant, future-ready precinct that balances progress with preservation. The development introduces modern housing, upgraded infrastructure, and new public amenities, all thoughtfully integrated within a walkable, connected ecosystem that links directly to KLCC via LRT, AKLEH, and pedestrian access.

Designed as a comprehensive mixed-use development, KL City Gateway supports not just residential and commercial growth, but also the social and communal aspects vital to a thriving neighbourhood. More than replacing buildings, it reshapes the experience of city living — elevating the everyday while maintaining the spirit of the original community.
As a catalyst for the wider revitalisation of Kampung Baru, KL City Gateway brings new economic opportunities, enhanced mobility, and a renewed sense of place. It reflects Suezcap’s commitment to sustainable urban renewal — creating inclusive spaces where heritage and modernity coexist.
This is not just a redevelopment — it is a restoration of potential, and a promise that communities like Kampung Sungai Baru will continue to thrive at the heart of a dynamic, growing Kuala Lumpur.
