ODEON Cinema, one of the few remaining Art Deco-style buildings in Kuala Lumpur, will soon make way for a multi-storey retail and service apartment project.

It is learned that Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) has approved in principle for the project to go ahead and that the development order is in the process of being issued.
