BHL Tower (Malay: Menara BHL) is a commercial skyscraper within George Town in the Malaysian state of Penang. Located at Northam Road, the 30-storey building was completed in 1995 and stands at a height of 108 m (354 ft).[2]

Aside from hosting a branch of CIMB Bank, BHL Tower also houses the Consulate-General of Japan in Penang.[3][4]

History

BHL Tower, completed in 1995, is one of the oldest skyscrapers along Northam Road after the nearby MBf Tower. It originally served as the regional office of BHL Bank, which was later merged with other banks to form its successor, CIMB.[5] To this day, CIMB maintains a branch within the structure.[3]
