Komtar Building in Penang Island Malaysia
The Tun Abdul Razak Complex, (Malay: Kompleks Tun Abdul Razak; Chinese: 光大大厦; Tamil: கொம்டார் கோபுரம்); colloquially known by its Malay acronym Komtar, formerly known as the Penang New Urban Center and the Central Area Redevelopment Plan for Penang, is a multicomplex located in the city of George Town, Penang, Malaysia. The complex comprises retail outlets, a transportation hub, and a skyscraper, containing the administrative offices of the Penang state government. It was named after Abdul Razak Hussein, the second Prime Minister of Malaysia, who officiated the construction of the complex. The tower is the third tallest building in Malaysia outside of Kuala Lumpur, after The Astaka Tower B at 255.6 m (839 ft). It was the tallest building in George Town, Penang and Malaysia upon completion. Until 1988, it became the second-tallest building, after the completion of the Maybank Tower.
The first phase of the construction of the complex started in 1974, and was completed in 1988. When the skyscraper topped out in 1985, it was completed with 65 floors and a height of 231.7 metres (760 ft). At the time of its completion, the skyscraper was the third-tallest building outside the Western Hemisphere (after Sunshine 60 in Tokyo and One Raffles Place in Singapore). The building maintained its status as the country's tallest skyscraper for another two years before being surpassed by the 243.5 m (799 ft) Menara Maybank in Kuala Lumpur in 1988. As of 21 March 2023, Komtar Tower's status as Penang's tallest skyscraper remains unchallenged.
