The Seri Tanjung Pinang project was first mooted in the 1980s, during the tenure of the then Chief Minister of Penang, Lim Chong Eu.
The project is split into two phases, with land reclamation for Phase 1 commencing in the 1990s.
However, the land reclamation was put on hold following the 1997 Asian financial crisis.

Having acquired the site in 2003, Eastern & Oriental Berhad resumed the development of the first phase.
In spite of the increasing costs, the 240-acre (970,000 m²) Seri Tanjung Pinang Phase 1 was completed by 2005.


The second phase of the Seri Tanjung Pinang project began in 2016 and involves the reclamation of 760 acres (3,100,000 m²) of land from the Penang Strait.
The land reclamation of Phase 2 was scheduled for completion by 2018.
