The Lee Rubber Building on the corner of Jalan Hang Lekir and Jalan Tun H.S. Lee in Kuala Lumpur is a fine example of Art Deco srchitecture. Built in the 1930's, the building has been restored to its former glory. Reputed to have been the headquarters of the Japanese secret police during the war, the building has also served as a bank but is now home to the "Popular" bookstore.
