The Exchange 106
The Exchange 106 (Malay: Menara Exchange 106), formerly known as the TRX Signature Tower, is a 453.6-meter-tall (1,488-foot) supertall skyscraper in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It is the second-tallest building in Malaysia and the third-tallest building in Southeast Asia. It was previously the tallest building in Malaysia upon its completion until being surpassed by Merdeka 118 in November 2023.
It is currently the 18th tallest building in the world according to the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH).
The exchange 106 is the second largest skyscraper in Malaysia by floor area with 453,885 m2 (4,886,000 sq ft). The tower has a net lettable area of 240,000 square metres (2.6 million square feet). It is also the centerpiece of the new Tun Razak Exchange (TRX) financial district.
As of October 2019, about 46,000 m2 (500,000 sq ft) of Exchange 106's floor space was expected to be taken up by tenants. The floor space is column-less, and ranges from 2,600 to 3,200 m2 (28,000 to 34,000 sq ft).
The skyscraper was first conceptualized when TRX was controlled by 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB), a sovereign fund owned by the Government of Malaysia. On 13 May 2015, 1MDB Real Estate Sdn Bhd (1MDB RE), the master developer of TRX, and the Mulia Group announced that, through Mulia Property Development Sdn Bhd, they had signed a Sale and Purchase agreement for the development rights of the plot of land for the Exchange 106 (then known as the Signature Tower), with the land transacted at a value of RM665 million. Groundwork on the Exchange 106 plot commenced on 1 March 2016, with the mat concrete foundation laid in May 2016 (see "Progress" section below).
Presently, Mulia Property Development Sdn Bhd is 51% owned by the Ministry of Finance through MKD Signature Sdn Bhd and 49% by Mulia International.
The Exchange 106 was managed by the Mulia Group, with structural construction carried out by the China State Construction Engineering Corporation, through its Malaysian subsidiary China State Construction Engineering (M) Sdn. Bhd.
In May 2016, the tower's foundation concrete pour took place over a weekend and was the second-largest continuous concrete pour in the world. In December 2017, the building was structurally topped out, 19 months after commencement, achieving an average of 3 days a floor.
