Abandoned Project Newgate 21 in USJ 21

[wong Choi Chee]

What an eyesore to see that tall condominium Newgate 21 abandoned in our neigbourhood for more than ten years? It is situated at the entrance from Puchong into USJ region. Do our USJ residents care enough to allow this ugly block standing in our midst! Is it high time that the responsible state councillor act on it? We need change and change has been promised by the newly elected state representatives. Now is the time to deliver. Don't disappoint us.

erm, i didn't know that it was a condo..in fact i dun think i have heard of it...only knew it was there all this while...

Yes, no one seems to know what it is about. It is just another abandoned project in USJ neighbourhood. To me, the so-called revived project has failed again. I am wondering anyone can throw in new insights into its latest progress and development. I am calling on purchasers of Newgate 21 to voice their opinions in this blog!!!

this is a forum, not a blog.

I am a buyer. I have written to YB Theresa Kok sometimes ago and received NO reply from her.

Is this the big, tall, grey halfway built building at the corner to turn to Puchong and Shah Alam?

I'm confused with Rythmn Avenue.

Anyway, I despise that building. Somebody ought to reduce it to rubble like the Americans with their demolishing of buildings.

it's an eyesore x 10. I was thinking of purchasing the condo opposite it, Tropika USJ, but the view faces this abandoned building.

Somebody do something.

It is supposed to give prestigious image to Subang Jaya and provide covenience to USJ residents for easy high class atmosphere shopping galore. How dare to want it to come down. Don't know 21 st century Condo??? May be go back to the kampong style architecture and live among trees.

Was looking at a picture I took of this property taken from the Rhythm avenue..That building is like a leaning tower. No wonder they cannot complete it.

I'm also a buyer. I called YB's office and her assistant said that they didn't get any documents from the previous ADUN. I made an appointment and met them. They made a copy of my documents.... I even have the newspaper advertisment when the project was 1st launched.

The last I heard (abt 1 month ago) is that they are compiling the buyer's list and trying to contact them. They are also in talks with the current developer and MPSJ.

teohtt, do contact her office. Forward any documents u have to them.... like S&P, advertiements, brochures, letters during the receivership, newspaper articles etc.

I'm a buyer - if I have to top up 30%, I'll do it. I'd rather have a completed real estate than a piece of vacuum in the air that I'm paying for. What do I need to do?

[aimless]

i have a unit there. does anyone know if there's a forum or email group or something like that for buyers? prob is i'm now out of the country and have no idea as to what is going on with this project.

Just called Pinggiran Setia Sdn Bhd, according to them a letter will be issue out soon to call for purchaser meeting again cos they have set a new scheme to revive the project, hopefully it is true this time. Wait and see.

[wong Choi Chee]

Once bitten twice shy is what I can say of the New Developer, Pinggiran Setia Sdn. Bhd. I don't have much faith in the developer. We were promised that the Newgate project would finish ahead of Rhythm Avenue. That story never came true. The building has become the leading tower of Subang Jaya. Please tell us what is holding up the project. Who is responsible for the management of the project revival. Is it Price Waterhouse or Bank RHB??? RHB has been silent on this matter as it is the anchor financial institution for this project. Hope this forum will gartner strong support from all purchasers of Newgate 21 to revive the abandoned project.

I think i'm not only make a wrong investment and trust on wrong developer but i also making wrong decision on opposition party. At least the previous adun, Dato Lee Hwa Beng concern to update us the development but now what the new adun doing? Big mistake!!!!!
