Amenities

Methodist Girls School, Pykett Methodist School, Francis Light School and Convent Dato Kramat are just a short distance away, as is KDU College Penang. The nearest market is the Anson Road Market. The nearest shopping centre is Penang Plaza. Nearest petrol station is the Esso at Macalister Road and BHP along Anson Road. The nearest hospital is Loh Guan Lye Specialist Centre which is also along Logan Road.

Traffic

Traffic along Anson Road and Perak Road, on either ends of Logan Road is continuously heavy during the day. Due to its proximity to Methodist Girls School, Logan Road also gets some traffic generated by the school buses and parents coming to drop or fetch the students.
