Manila Bulletin
December 16, 2009

Anew condo development in Makati offers a safe haven for urbanites who also want to embrace the diversity of today’s lifestyles. At the heart of Makati City, The Beacon is a resort-inspired residential community that will serve as a unique gateway to the city’s businesses, malls and schools while keeping family members close by.

Located at the corner of Don Chino Roces and Arnaiz Avenues, this three-tower development affords its residents the convenience of being near the country’s top business district. It will also be safe from floods since the condo units are placed on top of a podium, thereby guaranteeing ample elevation. An alternate route at the back (along Amorsolo Street) will also be provided in cases of emergency.

This exclusive Makati address is also just a five-minute walk to Walter Mart, which houses a supermarket, department store, cinemas, bookstores, drug stores and restaurants. Makati Cinema Square, home to a variety of shops, is also a few steps away. Further down the road is Shop Wise, one of the biggest superstores in Metro Manila.

Some of the country’s top schools – Don Bosco, Ateneo Professional School, and the Asian Institute Management are also within the vicinity.

The Beacon is also just a short distance away from the Greenbelt shopping areas and Ayala malls. Residents can now enjoy shopping and dining comfortably, sans worrying about the long route from their homes to the malls as they can go there on foot. Walking to the malls not only has health benefits, it can also cut your expenditures on gas and parking fees.

Walking your way around the city is also an interesting way to explore Makati’s streets and discover hidden treasures in the form of small shops along the way. The Ayala and Yuchengco Museums are easily accessible so you can get your dose of history and art without travelling far.

Busy executives working in Makati can benefit from the Beacon’s unique location since it would allow them to walk using the inner streets to avoid the dreaded traffic along Ayala, Paseo de Roxas, Gil Puyat and Makati Avenues.

Residents will also find it easy to locate hospitals, churches and other places of worship. Makati Medical Center, Iglesia ni Cristo, and Don Bosco Parish Churches, for example, are within the community.

In addition, the development’s location, at the intersection of two main roads, facilitate for a relaxing journey. Commuting around the city is easy. Travelling in and around Metro Manila is also possible via the South Superhighway and EDSA.

To complete the live-work-play lifestyle, The Beacon is also filled with relaxation and recreation amenities and services. Working on a residential resort living concept, it provides residents amenities such as Olympic-sized swimming pool, kiddie & toddler’s pools, playground, garden, jogging trail, gym, function rooms, playroom, emergency clinic, and rooftop gardens with barbecue pits.

There’s also property management and concierge services, conveniences once limited to resorts and hotels.

Units in this new development come in studio, loft, two-bedroom and three-bedroom cuts.

Coming home for the holidays

Philippine Star
November 27, 2009

MANILA, Philippines - For Filipinos, the ‘ber’ months marks the dawn of a most-awaited season — Christmas. Everyone becomes wrapped in a jolly mood, humming holiday ditties, taking out decors from boxes, sprucing the tree, spreading cheers, and the part most anticipated by every one — giving gifts.

As our favorite holiday, Christmas is also a time for endless reunions. It gives us the opportunity to see old friends, siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents and our godparents, of course! December is also a favored time for Filipino expatriates (also known as Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) to come home. Living away from their loved ones, Filipino expats take advantage of the holiday season to visit family and friends and experience a truly unforgettable Paskong Pinoy (Filipino Christmas). Reunions with Pinoy expats are filled with warm hugs and kisses, gales of laughter, endless feast and the inevitable boxes of pasalubongs. But finding the perfect gift this Christmas is hard, especially when everyone is feeling the pinch from the global economic meltdown.

Having a home you can truly call your own is the life-long dream of every Filipino to have. It invokes a sense of pride, a testimony of personal achievement. For Pinoy expats, it is seeing their hard work and years of solitude pay off and there’s no greater satisfaction than savoring the fruits of their labor. So by the time they return to the Philippines, they may enjoy the holidays, right in the comfort of their own homes.

This Christmas, make a sound investment. Your family deserves the best so instead of investing in an ordinary home, why not secure a modern, prestigious, and comfortable habitat that imbues a 24/7 resort -inspired lifestyle?

Roces Tower, the first phase of The Beacon, is steadily shaping up with several major construction milestones.

With the building structure already complete, work has shifted to the installation of the precast exterior wall. Plumbing and electrical works as well as construction of unit partitions are also underway at the lower floors.
