Kota Kinabalu > City Excitement > Kota Kinabalu City Waterfront
One WATERFRONT with 2 names in 2 projects:
1)
Jesselton
Waterfront Project - North Waterfront
2)
KK City Waterfront Development - South
Waterfront
This is confusing to the public thinking it was the same project, but there
is only one Waterfront in Kota Kinabalu. It might be more clear in labeling the
two projects as Waterfront North and Waterfront South.

In news media, it was often mistakenly description the boardwalk as 2 Km in length. This 2 Km is the length of Esplanade (Waterfront) not the board walks which added up 200+ meters only.
