BKS PPS Building, located at the junction of Kesawan and Jl Palang Merah, originally housed the Organisation of the Estate companies of the East Coast of Sumatra. It was built in 1918 in old European style, and is still in good condition.
I passed by this building on my way to Kesawan Square, and decided to document it for AsiaExplorers. The source of information comes from the "History of Medan in the olden times" by Tengku Luckman Sinar.
