CEBU, Philippines - Experience city resort living and discover the many surprises that await you at the Cebu Park District.
First it was Makati, now Ayala Land Inc. sets its sights on another major city development as it unveils the leading growth center south of the Philippines – the Cebu Park District.
Last November 24, Ayala marked a milestone with the unveiling of Cebu Park District composed of Cebu Business Park and Cebu IT Park (formerly Asiatown IT Park).
At the heart of this major development rises Alveo Land’s first multi-tower development in Cebu — Solinéa.
Led by Antonino T. Aquino, president of Ayala Land Inc., the media launch introduced a new ideal in urban development that is set to solidify Cebu’s position as the country’s newest growth capital.
“Our intent is to continue to build towards this vision: to introduce people to a mixed-use and integrated living concept where the live-work-play equity comes to life,” Aquino, who is also the chairman of Cebu Holdings Inc., said.
“We were fortunate enough to have been given the opportunity to see this vision come to fruition in our major city developments, and as we continue to work towards this, we now want to reinforce Ayala Land’s presence in southern Philippines,” he added.
Evolution of one of the country’s regional hubs
Cebu has long been recognized as a regional growth center, and with ALI and CHI at the helm of its evolution, it has managed to successfully set the stage for the region’s top commercial and residential developments.
Today, the fusion of Cebu Business Park and Cebu IT Park marks their efforts to “bridge the best elements of Cebu’s leading growth centers, bringing ALI’s vision of integrated living to life with the unveiling of Cebu Park District.”
CPD is a testimony to the company’s proven track record of building integrated cities that offer diversity, vibrancy, and dynamism. Already recognized as the city’s leading destination for shopping, dining, and recreation on top of being a thriving business hub, efforts are now underway to integrate Cebu Business Park with the dynamic Cebu IT Park, a district that highlights the burgeoning promise of Cebu’s information technology industry.
“Our goal is to create a thriving community that combines the ease of urban living with the inherent Cebu lifestyle,” Aquino explained. “We envision Cebu Park District to be the new benchmark of an urban community that seamlessly complements the lifestyle ideals of the region.”
Innovating lifestyles
As ALI’s vision continues to take shape, it moves to set the standard for residential living in CPD. This includes sustained efforts to introduce residential innovations like Solinéa, the most recent residential development of Alveo Land, ALI’s standard bearer for innovation.
“Taking our cue from Cebu, we sought to introduce a living concept that brings together Cebu’s natural draw and inherent charm with ALI’s unparalleled standards in development. Solinéa is Alveo’s first multi-tower development in Cebu that makes it possible for residents to come home to a vacation every day,” Jennylle Tupaz, head of project development for Alveo Land, enthused.
While the concept of a resort lifestyle is not new to Cebuanos, Solinéa offers the ideal experience of a vacation-like residential lifestyle, set at the heart of a thriving urban enclave.
From its highly strategic location to the careful selection of its resort-inspired amenities, the attention to detail that went into the project’s master plan is evident in every facet of the development. Bounded by two major access roads – Luzon Avenue on the north and Cardinal Rosales Avenue on the east – Solinéa is strategically located to ensure its accessibility. The development is just right across Ayala Center Cebu and is in close proximity to numerous recreational, dining and leisure options as it is located within the Cebu Park District. This will give future residents exceptional access to everything it has to offer.
Inside, Solinéa will also usher residents into a world defined by the ease and relaxation reminiscent of a vacation destination. The first phase of the 2.6-hectare development showcases a 29-storey tower with 591 units that will be set amid lush landscapes, manicured pocket gardens, and open spaces. An expansive resort-quality swimming pool and a central clubhouse with a gym, function room and game room, as well as a special retail and dining area are among its extensive amenity list, allowing Solinéa to provide a relaxing city resort experience.
“It is the fruition of Ayala Land’s vision to bring to the fore the ideals of integrated, mixed-use living. What Solinéa has to offer complements Cebu Park District’s rise as a dynamic hub for business, recreation and residential living,” Tupaz stressed. “All these underscore the ease and ideals of everyday city resort living that’s distinctly Solinéa – a place you get to call home.” (FREEMAN)
