In Jakarta’s SCBD, the superblock complex MidPlaza Jakarta stands out as a gateway to the central business district. This complex consisting of three towers is more than just being located in the heart of the capital.
Like its name suggests, the MidPlaza superblock complex was built one by one by MidPlaza Holdings, starting from its first tower, MidPlaza 1, in 1988. The second tower, MidPlaza 2, was built later in 1995, followed by the AYANA Midplaza Jakarta, originally in 1998.
