Modern day Penang reclamations

The Pengkalan Weld end of the Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway, as it is today.

RECLAMATION projects are not new in Penang. A number of heritage landmarks in George Town stand on reclaimed land.

The heritage Clan Jetties and old Malayan Railway Building (now Wisma Kastam) stand on land reclaimed for harbour trade activities in the early 19th century by the British administration.
