Kampung Baru sits directly beside KLCC, inside what's often called KL's next major redevelopment zone — a traditional Malay settlement enclave now seeing new-launch towers rise along its edges, within walking distance of the Petronas Twin Towers.
The redevelopment story here plays out over a longer horizon than most areas — pockets of shophouses and older low-rise stock still sit beside new towers, so location within the enclave matters more than the area name alone.
