Property prospectus: George Town

George Town, on the Malaysian island of Penang, is a former British trading outpost rich with post-colonial charm. Now it’s drawing in a new batch of entrepreneurs who are converting old shop-houses into everything from homes and hotels to cafés and galleries. Monocle visits the city to witness its property revitalisation.
