Now that the price of gasoline has breached the P50.00 mark and showing no signs of letting up, there is a more compelling need to reduce the dependence on automobiles, hard as it is to break the habit. This dependence stems from the uncontrolled expansion of a poorly-planned metropolis and weak public transport system. Now, compounded with the increasing threat of global warming and rising interest in sustainable housing, Cathay Land has poised itself to take a central role in coming up with the project meant for those who are after a green way of life.
South Forbes Golf City, the largest fully-integrated and all-themed golf resort city at the forefront of the booming Metro Sta. Rosa – Tagaytay corridor, was acclaimed by the 2007 CNBC International Property Awards, the world’s most prestigious property awards programme, as Best Golf Community Development — the first and only in the Philippines.
“South Forbes believes that building sustainable and thriving communities in harmony with the natural environment is about building better lives for people,” said Cathay Land president, Jeffrey Ng. “This is reflected in South Forbes’ 5 Clusters of Excellence where the Residential Cluster forms a synergistic circle with the Education, Business, Wellness, and Leisure Clusters.”
Green Design. New Urbanism governs the planning and design of South Forbes in order to achieve the benefits of compact, mixed-use, and pedestrian neighborhoods. This way, there is a discernible center where most residences are within 10-minutes walk away, streets within the neighborhood form a connected network which disperses traffic by providing a variety of pedestrian and vehicular routes to any destination, and work and school are close enough so that most everyone can walk from their homes. In South Forbes, while children walk to the nearby schools like DLSU Canlubang or St. Scholastica, so too will their parents to the Laguna Technopark or South Forbes’ very own Cyberpark for work.
