The Columns outpaces condo construction record

Outpacing all comers, The Columns, Ayala Avenue continues to exceed deadlines and expectations. Construction of the podium and first tower of 30-story three-tower residential condominium aims to reach the 11th and 12th floors by December, with eager buyers receiving their units by the middle of 2006, according to developer Community Innovations, Inc. (CII).

The Columns, Ayala Avenue was launched in January 2003 and broke ground in March. Its progress outstrips other similar projects in the metropolis and is a testimony to the commitment of Community Innovations, Inc. to its customers, and the efficiency of contractor Makati Development Corp.

From its lot upon the intersection of Ayala Avenue and Sen. Gil Puyat Avenue (Buendia), The Columns, Ayala Avenue offers an ideal living space for young urban achievers and their families. The Columns gives its residents the convenience and prestige of an Ayala Avenue address in the Makati central business district, while offering a serene and relaxed home environment through meticulous design and planning. Its combination of location, prestige, and features at a price within reach, has cinched its popularity among young urbanites and investors.

This popularity has translated into smashing sales success. Tower 1, currently under construction, sold out within four months of the beginning of pre-sales, with Tower 2 followed suit in similar speed. This allowed CII to begin sales of Tower 3 in October.

The Columns, Ayala Avenue brings the good life within reach of young urban achievers looking for a place to call their own in the Makati central business district. Its three 23-story towers rise on a seven-story podium for a total of 30 stories. Each tower houses 284 units comprised of a mix of studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments. Designed to redefine condo living, The Columns is designed to maximize space and light, in ways ranging from having a window in every room, to single-loading corridors, to angling the towers for the best views and exposure. Light, space and air define the units at The Columns, Ayala Avenue.

The seven-story podium houses parking, lobbies, and amenities for the residents, with a seventh-floor indoor/outdoor Recreational Club spanning all three towers and a Ground Floor filled with al fresco dining and shops. A true "vertical village," The Columns brings the feel of a friendly suburban community into the heart of the city, in a self-contained refuge a stone’s throw from centers of commerce, business, and recreation. With its flexible and affordable pricing schemes, The Columns, Ayala Avenue is positioned within reach of young men and women who work in Makati and seek a home they can call their own, an investment backed by the reputation of CII and its parent company, Ayala Land.
