Setia V Residences is a residential complex within George Town in the Malaysian state of Penang. Located at the city's prime address of Gurney Drive, it consists of a pair of skyscrapers, Tower A and Tower B, with 48 and 32 stories respectively. Tower B has an estimated height of 120.83 m (396.4 ft).[2] Tower A, with a height of 181.24 m (594.6 ft),[1] was the tallest residential skyscraper in Penang; and as of 2021, remains as one of the tallest skyscrapers in George Town.
The complex has a total of 166 residential units, with areas ranging from 2,624 to 7,119 sq ft (243.8 to 661.4 m2). Units were sold between RM 1.95 million and RM 7.47 million (US$ 465,000 and US$1.79 million) [3]
The residential complex sits at a 1.8 acres (0.73 ha) [4] site of the former campus of Tenby School (Sri Inai School), a private school based in Penang, founded in the 1980s. This site, under the acquirement of S P Setia, a Malaysian property development firm, was redeveloped in 2011. The original campus of Tenby School was subsequently demolished later that year. Both Tower A and B topped out in 2016 while the complex was fully completed in late-2017.[5]
