Real Estate

For the ultra successful

-

For a company that was only started by businessman Andrew Tan in 1989, Megaworld Corporation has grown to become the country’s second most valuable property company in terms of market value. It is also the country’s largest residential and business process outsourcing (BPO) office condominiums developer.

Close to two decades later, Tan is the country’s newest billion-dollar taipan. It is only fitting then that the highly successful entrepreneur and his powerhouse real estate company conceptualize a project that connotes the golden symbol of success all throughout – and thereby stamp the company’s zeal for more success in the future.

This new high-rise project is no other than One Central. The branding pays homage to its central location, right at the heart of the Makati Central Business District. The site straddles three main thoroughfares, at the corners of Sen. Gil Puyat Ave and HV Dela Costa and Geronimo streets. It is literally a stone’s throw away from the financial center’s main artery, Ayala Avenue.

“This is probably the last remaining ultra prime piece of real estate in Makati, and we exerted all efforts to make it a lasting symbol of success – from its Art Deco architecture to its grand lobby, from its endless list of top amenities to its especially designed units found nowhere else,” Megaworld Chairman & CEO Andrew Tan declared.

Megaworld tapped its longtime collaborator, architectural firm Preben Kent, to design the P5.5-billion single tower of One Central. The boomerang-shaped architecture pays homage to the 1920s era of the groundbreaking Art Deco movement in New York City – the most famous exemplars of which are the Chrysler and Empire State buildings.

During the day, One Central’s 50-storey left wing facing Ayala Ave. gives off a bright blue vibe, while the 42-storey right wing lends a bluish green hue. All the more, One Central becomes a fitting, welcome neighbor to two office landmarks nearby: the RCBC Plaza and GT Tower. “When One Central is turned over to our unit owners, they will certainly be proud to live in such an avant garde building,” Tan promised.

Since Megaworld has positioned the project to cater only to the ultra successful – millionaire entrepreneurs, prominent lawyers and doctors, high flying executives and discriminating investors among others – Tan was very hands on in leading the design of the project and its amenities. “Megaworld has pulled out all the stops in designing a residential condominium that offers only the best amenities – it’s in a class of its own,” according to the taipan.

From the outside, one such amenity that will be clearly visible and awe-inspiring will be the Forest Park. It will feature tall trees, flowering plants and a cascading water feature.
