Location
Cochrane Road runs in a northwest–southeast direction, linking Maluri to Pasar Road in Pudu.
Features
Cochrane Road lends its name to two secondary schools in this area - the Cochrane Road School and SMK Cochrane Perkasa.
Since 2015, Cochrane Road hosts IKEA's second store in Malaysia after Mutiara Damansara. Linked to the IKEA store is the MyTown Shopping Centre, developed by the army-linked Boustead Group.
There were many government quarters in this area since the 1930s, until demolition in 2011-2012[3] to make way for the construction of the aforementioned IKEA store and the KG21 Cochrane MRT station, part of the MRT Kajang Line.
