An award winning resurrection, the St Joseph's Novitiate by the north of Gurney Drive and the south of Kelawai Road, Pulau Tikus, Penang, is now a preserved part of Gurney Paragon Mall. Once was part of St Joseph's Training College that stood next to the college original complex, the 88--year-old load bearing masonry building is now a cultural attraction, with a refined lifestyle installation including The MING Fine Art Gallery.

 

Completed in 1925, as the inscription displayed on outer wall, ANNO SANCTO MCMXXV, we are honoured to be a part of this historical monument that stand the test of time and history. The preservation won the Association of Consulting Engineers Malaysia (ACEM) Gold Award of Special Merit 2013, for Engineering Excellence, the association’s most prestigious award.
