Also commonly referred to as Capital Square, Cap Square is located along Jalan Munshi Abdullah, in midtown Kuala Lumpur and was developed by Bandar Raya Developments Berhad, a prominent Malaysian property developer.

Apart from retail spaces, the development encompasses one 36-storey condominium block and one office block under phase 2. Phase 1, which comprised a single 40-storey office block, Menara Multi Purpose, was completed back in 1994. Menara Multi-Purpose is also home to Bandar Raya Developments Berhad’s corporate headquarters. The completed 36-storey residence component of the Cap Square development comprises 180 apartment units.

Development of Cap Square was put on hold since 1997 due to the Asian Financial Crisis. The only fully completed structure then was the Menara Multi-Purpose, which was completed in 1994. Construction of a second office block (OT2) stalled and its partially completed structure remained abandoned for about 10 years. In January 2008, Bandar Raya Developments Berhad announced that it had entered into a conditional sales and purchase agreement with Union Investment Real Estate AG for the en block sale of the 41-storey OT2 for RM439 million. Construction of OT2 has since resumed and is currently expected for completion in 2011.

The tenants of Cap Square are a mixture of restaurants, bars and cafes, a supermarket, a cineplex, a gymnasium, a nightclub, a bookstore, a pharmacy, several small boutiques, hair salon, an art gallery and other smaller shops such as bakeries, newsagents, and optical shops.

Opening hours are from 10:00 am to 10:00 pm daily, seven days a week. Restrooms, bureau de change, lifts, staircases and escalators. Cap Square offers wheelchairs for hire under their concierge services. A RM50 deposit is required for the wheelchair, and can be loaned from 10:00 am until 6:00 pm of the same day. The concierge services also provide assistance for calling for cabs as well as a lost and found service.

Both indoor and outdoor parking facilities are available. The outdoor parking facilities are located in front of the Red Square nightclub while indoor parking is located in the basement of Cap Square. Parking rates for the basement carpark are RM2 per hour (7 am to 6 pm) (Monday to Friday) or RM3 per entry (6 pm to 7 am) (Monday to Friday).
