THE STRAITS QUAY GALLERY

Straits Quay

Straits Quay is Penang’s first sea-fronting retail marina, complete with serviced residences, a performing arts centre and a convention centre.

The architecture of Straits Quay draws its inspiration from the island’s grand colonial heritage, with wrought-iron filigree work reminiscent of the iconic Eastern & Oriental (E&O) Hotel. Wrought-iron work is a traditional trade of Penang, and there are many beautiful examples of wrought-iron gates, railings, balusters and other decorative ironwork on buildings around the island.
