Menara MBPJ, Municipal skyscraper in Petaling Jaya, Malaysia.

Menara MBPJ is a 24-story office tower standing 152 meters tall and housing both municipal offices and commercial rental spaces in its modern frame. The building provides flexible office layouts with floor areas suitable for different business types and sizes.

Construction began in 1984 and completed in 1987 with an official inauguration by Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah. The project marked a milestone for Petaling Jaya as a municipality establishing its own infrastructure.

The building represents a turning point when Petaling Jaya decided to shape its own skyline rather than relying on nearby Kuala Lumpur. It became a symbol of local pride and the city's confidence in its own future.

The tower provides office spaces in various sizes to accommodate different business needs and operations. Modern connectivity and convenient access via public transportation make it easy to reach from different parts of the city.

This was the first high-rise building developed and constructed by a local municipal authority in Malaysia. The financial model of generating revenue through office rentals proved innovative for its time and helped fund local government operations.
