Text description provided by the architects. The original REXKL cinema was a dilapidated building that had much historical significance but was reduced to a slow death by non-usability and repeated historical fires. Forgotten & illegally used as a travellers' hostel, the old cinema had much cultural recognition with the local community, with the site being located near Petaling Street, a popular yet seedy part of downtown Kuala Lumpur.
