MANILA, Philippines - Riding on a successful 2009, top real estate developer Century Properties opened the first quarter of 2010 with the official launch of its newest project, Azure Urban Resort Residences, a nine-building residential resort development in Parañaque City that features no less than a man-made beach.
The launch was held on March 2 with the grand opening of the Azure Experience showroom at the second floor of the low-rise Pacific Star Building in Makati.
Company chairman Amb. Jose E.B. Antonio and executive vice president for Vertical Developments John Victor Antonio also formally introduced the award-winning actor Piolo Pascual and the beautiful Ruffa Gutierrez as Century Properties’ Global Ambassadors.
The two celebrities led the guests in the unveiling of the main attraction inside the Azure showroom — a simulation of the beach experience, complete with a man-made beach, waves and white sand.
“We are proud to introduce another first in Philippine real estate history from Century Properties,” said John Victor Antonio, who personally made sure that the Azure showroom will perfectly capture the modern tropical vacation experience that the company has envisioned for the actual project.
A joint-venture project with the Columbian Motors Group of Companies, the Azure is the first project of Century Limitless, a new brand category under Century Properties that offers quality residential developments at affordable prices.
The award-winning masterplanning firm Broadway Malyan, led by architect Jason Pomeroy, joined the Century team to create a sustainable design and lifestyle concept for Azure. In the course of their planning, the development team decided to devote only 20% of the total area to the residential buildings and leave the remaining 80% to open space, amenities, landscape, and a circumferential road around the property.
Unit reservations are now being accepted for the first Azure building called The Rio, inspired by the famous beach destination, Rio de Janeiro, in Brazil. The Rio will have 20 floors and a total of 756 residential units.
