History
Opened 2003

Kuala Lumpur Sentral (KL Sentral) or Sentral Kuala Lumpur is a transit-oriented development that houses the main railway station of Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia. Opened on 16 April 2001, KL Sentral replaced the old Kuala Lumpur railway station as the city's main intercity railway station. KL Sentral is the largest railway station in Malaysia.

KL Sentral is designed as an transport hub. All of Kuala Lumpur's passenger rail lines except the Ampang Line serve KL Sentral, while many intercity trains serving Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore start there. All the railway components of the scheme have been completed, and Nu Sentral shopping mall is located here. It was also designed to be a new business and financial hub for Kuala Lumpur.

KL Sentral refers to the entire 290,000 square metres of development built on the former Keretapi Tanah Melayu marshalling yard in Brickfields. The development includes the transport hub, hotels, office towers, condominiums and shopping malls and is expected to be completed in 2015.

KL Sentral has been divided into 14 land parcels, each representing a different function. Some of these lots have been fully constructed and are already in use, while others are either in the process of being built, or are still awaiting development, according to the phased programme.

KL Sentral is being developed by a consortium made up of Malaysian Resources Corporation Berhad (MRCB), Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB) and Pembinaan Redzai Sdn Bhd.

In 1994, with the objective to enhance Kuala Lumpur city’s public transportation, the Government of Malaysia awarded a contract to a consortium to transform 72 acres (290,000 m2) at Kuala Lumpur’s old railway marshalling yard into a modern transit hub within a self-contained urban development.

The consortium, led by Malaysian Resources Corp Bhd (MRCB) appointed architect Kisho Kurokawa and Associates, who also designed the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), to design the master plan for the entire development.
