Cascadium is placed in the heart of Bangsar, the trendiest and most commercialized residential area of all areas in Kuala Lumpur. This bustling town is a preferred destination among those with a pulsating nightlife and with the will to shop. If you need shopaholic anonymous then this would be a hard environment to live in as it is the source of great retail therapy.
Placed right opposite Bangsar Shopping Complex and in the vicinity of Bangsar Village, Cascadium residents would have no trouble with public transport. From bus services to cabs in abundance, there would be no hassle when it comes to transportation. With only 102 units, this low density condominium has a peaceful environment and there is no congestion and overflow of people in the building. It has ample of space and is also quiet and comfy.
Cascadium is well equipped with facilities and conveniences that suits residents of all sorts. It can be a family home or a student’s chill-out apartment or even a studio in some cases. The sauna, pools and gyms helps in distressing and keeping fit while the cleaning services and launderette makes chores a little less of a burden.
In addition to that, Cascadium has tip-top security. The guard house always has 2 to 4 guards present and they have been well trained to not allow vehicles without the condo’s car sticker pass through. Also, in terms of security, there are CCTVs, 24 hour patrolling and access cards which is required to move in and out of the building.
Cascadium is well off geographically as it is within walking distance to trendy bars, local, and international eateries, clubs, malls and about a ten minute drive away from Mid Valley City and 1-Utama. As all these leisure malls and entertainment outlets are nearby, it comes with its downfalls too.
Being in the center of the city, it is without a doubt that there are many offices, workplaces and education centers around. This makes rush hour maddening and hard to live with. When you’re on your way home, you would encounter a massive jam which at times can be a bumper to bumper situation. Also, the noise pollution would increase as impatient drivers honk their way through in order to get out of the congestion and mess.
As Bangsar is the town of all parties, it is undeniably that your nights wouldn’t be as easy either. The jams and noise level would increase as many party goers and clubbers would fill the streets to get to their favorite bars and clubs. Having said this, at times, it can get a little frustrating because live band performances and visiting international DJ’s who come around often make a big deal with their music and you can hear the bass and cheering right up the street.
Also, at times you would find that once these entertainment outlets close up, highly intoxicated people spill into the streets and start up a commotion. This is more frequent during football season and during festive seasons as well. With this, the noise increases and outside safety decreases making it a bit worrying when it comes to our teenagers who return late and such.
Furthermore, residents have complained that visitors who visit Cascadium and park within the premises are charged a ridiculous rate of RM5 be it for 5 minutes or 5 hours. The security guards would hold back the identity card or driving license of the visitor if they refuse to pay the parking charges.
It isn’t so much the price but more of the matter of principle. The management of Cascadium allows their guards to hold these personal cards of visitors. This is a highly inappropriate action and should not be tolerated as well. Moreover, visitors who come to the condominium are here for visiting purposes and not shopping or whatsoever, hence, it isn’t right to charge parking rates within a residential area.
