Chow Kit, Kampung Baru and Titiwangsa: Condos, Apartments and Area Guide

Chow Kit lies around Jalan Chow Kit, between Jalan Raja Laut and Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman. It is named after Loke Chow Kit, a miner and businessman. Many Indonesian traders run shops and restaurants here.

Kampung Baru was set up in 1899 on land granted by the Sultan of Selangor so Malays could keep a village life in the city, and it was gazetted as the Malay Agricultural Settlement in 1950. It covers almost 4 km² between Jalan Tun Razak, Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman and the Klang River, with KLCC on the other bank. Plans to redevelop it have been discussed since the 2000s. North of it is Titiwangsa, built around a lake left from tin mining.

This page spans three parliament seats. Kampung Baru is in the Titiwangsa seat (P.119), which has the Kampong Bharu Utara, Tengah and Selatan polling districts; its median household earned RM 10,669 a month in 2024. Chow Kit is listed in the Bukit Bintang seat (P.120), whose polling districts include Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman and Tiong Nam; median RM 10,966. Despite its name, Wikipedia places the Titiwangsa area itself in the Setiawangsa seat (P.118), median RM 11,180. All three are whole-seat figures from DOSM.

In NAPIC sales in the 8 buildings we matched here, a condominium or serviced residence sold for a median of RM 381 psf in 2024 (16 sales) and RM 413 psf in 2025. That is below the RM 697 psf median for the whole City Centre zone in 2025, but the sample is small.
