Celadon Park: The gold standard in condo living

- Ching M. Alano -
There’s something racy and sensuous about it that sends your adrenaline into overdrive. You just know you have to be part of the action. And back then, if it was action you wanted, it was live – and kicking – action you got at the San Lazaro Hippodrome. But hold your horses now, Sta. Cruz, Manila drew a legion of faithful not only to its racetracks but also to its storied church, which was built by the Jesuits in the early 17th century and has evolved into the center of the Sta. Cruz lifestyle. Very much a part of that vibrant lifestyle are the shops, the movie houses and the eateries/holes-in-the-wall in Chinatown that give the place a piquant character. Indeed, here, there’s something to nourish both body and soul.

And now, rising in the heart of Manila’s Sta Cruz district is the Celadon Park San Lazaro, the first residential condominium project of Community Innovations, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ayala Land. Like a flawless Chinese porcelain gleaming with its pale green glaze, Celadon Park is a prize find in the city. Where, oh where, in the congested, polluted, traffic-ridden metropolis can you find an oasis that offers a refuge for weary bodies and tattered spirits?

The answer lies in a three-tower condominium community that’s got – hold you breath now – all of 12,000 square meters of lush, landscaped open space. Yes, in the middle of Manila’s asphalt jungle.

Grace Sta. Ana, project development manager of Community Innovations, stoutly asserts, "This is something rare since land values in Manila are high and offering greens and open spaces was previously not an option."

For city residents cooped up in the four walls of their homes and waiting to exhale, Celadon Park comes like a breath of fresh air. To rise right beside Celadon Residences, the only masterplanned townhouse community in Manila, Celadon Park San Lazaro sets the gold standard in condo living.

The figures speak for themselves: 7,000 square meters of open space for greens as far as your eyes can see (surely, every room in your condo will have a view), city-club amenities right at the ground floor, and – take double note – an additional 5,000 square meters of greens and open space at the 5th floor podium level.

If you put a premium on location (who doesn’t?), Celadon Park is the place to be. Strategically located in downtown Manila, it is only two kilometers away from Binondo’s bustling financial district, a few minutes away from reputable Chinese schools in Binondo, and universities in the university belt area.

Just like buying into an expensive club membership, Celadon Park’s integrated suite of amenities satisfies residents’ relaxation and recreation needs. True to Community Innovations’ vision of an oasis-in-the-middle-of-the-city development, Celadon Park will have resort-style swimming pools, children’s outdoor play areas, picnic grounds, palm trees lining 7,000 square meters of lush greens at the ground floor, a huge function room that can seat up to 200 guests, an amphitheater, and a fully-equipped fitness center making up an additional 5,000 square meters of open space on the 5th floor podium.

A "resort-like environment" is what Community Innovations envisions for this high-rise development.

All these five-star amenities, the luxury or space urbanites can only dream of, and a green and clean environment undoubtedly make Celadon Park the gold standard in condo living today.

Because at the end of the day, it all boils down to the answers to these questions: Can I swim laps after work? Where do my kids play after school? How long does it take them to get to school? Do I feel safe walking outside with my family? Do I know my neighbors? Do I see trees surrounding my immediate residence? Can I indulge in the soothing environs of a private garden?

Excellent location plus superior amenities plus quality development plus good value for money plus excellent property management by the Ayala Property Management Corporation plus the Ayala Land heritage give Celadon Park a decided edge.

With high-rise living such as this, there are high hopes for the city.
