The Hyatt Group in 1994 gave the contract to develop the RM570 million Duta Grand Hyatt Hotel to Kuala Lumpur Landmark Sdn. Bhd., a subsidiary of Olympia Industries Bhd. Once completed, this 52-storey building will serve as its headquarters and hotel. However, construction was halted in July 1998, when the group encountered financial difficulties during the 1997/1998 economic downturn. The incomplete skeleton of the building has been abandoned ever since and Hyatt Group is no longer associated with the project.

  • an eyesore in another supposedly good location in the city. slated to open in time for KL98 but never did till today. perhaps they're waiting for Malaysia to host the Olympics before restarting the project.
