has gloss | eng: Taman Abad or Century Garden in English is one of the earliest housing development in Johor Bahru, the southern gateway city of Malaysia facing Singapore and Malaysias second largest city. The housing ranges from expensive bungalow houses built at the top of the valley to older more modest single-storey terrace houses built in the 1960s. It was developed by a visionary and prominent Johor Bahru businessman, Yap Siew Cheng (1918-1970). Ambitious and daring at that time because its location was considered quite far out of Johor Bahru town and surrounded by rubber estates. |
