Pre-War Shophouses & Their Value To The City
Thursday, 6 February, 2025
Pre-war shophouses are a crucial part of Kuala Lumpur’s landscape, both in their cultural influence as part of the city’s fabric, as well as their commercial influence, then and now, in a more modern environment. Their continuous existence in this day and age is interesting, as there are concerted efforts by all the stakeholders involved to keep these buildings as they are, to preserve their value, both financially, and esoterically, to the city. I Love KL has always been focused on the intangible value of heritage buildings and their cultural significance and value to the city, so in this episode, we ask heritage conservation expert, Elizabeth Cardosa, whether they talk about the financial value of these pre-war shophouses, and how they balance it with what they do and their focus. This episode is inspired by this article from The Edge Malaysia. Photo credit: Unsplash
