Real Estate Review: Greenlane Heights Block 3, Island Park

Greenlane Heights Block 3 (GPS: 5.39299, 100.29803) is a high-rise apartment block along Jalan Gangsa in Island Park, Penang. It is part of the Greenlane Heights residential neighbourhood. Greenlane Heights Block 3 breaks away from the usual naming convention as the two previous blocks were called Block A and Block B (I have no idea why it isn't called Block C, considering there is no Block 1 or Block 2!) It is 18 storeys tall, and has a total of 340 apartment units of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, on freehold land.

Facilities

Facilities include security and parking lot.

Location

Greenlane Heights Block 3 is 5.7 km from Komtar. It is suitable for people working in the city, though I find the place so densely crowded. But it is still an affordable option for those with a middle class income.

Public Transport

It's a long walk, but some people do walk all the way from Block 3 to the bus stop at Green Lane, some 1 km away. Rapid Penang Bus 11, 206 and 304 are the buses that pass through there.

Amenities

The nearest schools are Sekolah Menengah Chung Hwa Confucian, Convent Green Lane, Sekolah Menengah Georgetown and Penang Free School. The nearest market is the Greenlane Heights Market. The nearest hypermarket is Lotus's Penang. The nearest petrol station is the Island Park Caltex, Greenview BHP, Green Lane Petronas and Green Lane Shell. The nearest hospital is Lam Wah Ee Hospital.

Traffic

Traffic in Greenlane Heights is moderate. Block 3 is one of the most densely crowded blocks at Greenlane Heights. Traffic gets heavy towards Jalan Tembaga and Jalan Besi approaching the traffic lights with Green Lane. Greenlane Heights Block A is located along Jalan Besi, which is the outermost block within the Greenlane Heights development.
