Taman Rasuna


We moved to the Taman Rasuna apartment complex in Kuningan, Jakarta. Ina did a great job of finding an apartment to rent for one month. Four years ago, we stayed here as well, and we liked the area and the amenities of the development.
But in four years a lot has changed. Not only have two more towers been added, but there's also a huge new development under construction right next door. Builders are finishing up the 215 m, 50 storey Bakrie Tower, anchoring the Rasuna Epicentrum. Designed by the world-renowned HO+K firm, this structure is another architectural marvel in the Jakarta skyline.


We visited a minitiature of the entire development. On the picture, you can see the canceled monorail along Jalan Rasuna Said on the foreground, the Bakrie Tower in the middle with the Taman Rasuna towers to the right. Work has not started on the towers on the left, but you can sign up for a $250K condo already today.
