City Residence is a mixed-use complex within George Town in the Malaysian state of Penang. Located at the suburb of Tanjong Tokong, the development consists of twin residential towers and a three-storey shopping mall named City Junction that forms the podium. Built by local developer Ivory Properties Group, each tower is designed as a low-density residence comprising only 101 units spread across 39 storeys, integrated with recreational and communal amenities.

The twin towers have a total of 202 residential units, ranging from 460 sq ft (43 m2) sf for the smallest unit to the largest penthouse unit measuring 5,600 sq ft (520 m2). [3] [4] A variety of recreational and communal amenities are available at the top of the podium, such as a swimming pool, barbecue pit, gymnasium, sauna and playground.

In 2022, Village Grocer, a Malaysian premium grocery chain, opened its first Penang store at City Junction, becoming the mall's anchor tenant.
