Brickfields is known for its cultural heritage as the area where bricks were once made. It is now a popular residential area located near Kuala Lumpur Sentral transportation hub. Redevelopments in Brickfields have led to new modern architecture that contrasts with old structures. This has caused the area to lose some of its original identity as developers focus on desires for change rather than demand. Safety has also become an issue as rapid growth occurs without addressing unpleasant areas, threatening both residents and visitors.
