The
Park's Rising Skyline
Cebu
in 1992 had a phenomenal construction up trend seen to be a
“construction boom.” But then came the economic slowdown, which
started in 1997.
But
despite this, an area in the city is a picture of hope, the Cebu
Business Park that continues to build. Started some years ago, it is now
a central area of a rising skyline for Cebu. This 50-hectare property
has commercial buildings, such as the Ayala
Center Cebu, Cebu Holdings Center, Park Tower I and II, Cebu
City Marriott Hotel,
Keppel Center, and First Abacus Financial Center, and keeps on building.
Between the high rise structures
are green areas and other buildings, such as the Cebu
City Sports Club of world-class standards in a seven level
structure, a joint billion-peso project of Ayala Land, Inc. and Cebu
Holdings, Inc., a member of the Ayala Group of Companies.
It’s more than just establishing
buildings but to contribute to the national development of the country
through opportunities provided here in Cebu.
Ayala projects started in Luzon
many years ago. This is a take off from the development projects, like
Forbes Park, Dasmariñas, and Ayala Alabang, then the project in Baguio.
Visayas and Mindanao projects will be handled by Cebu Holdings, Inc.
Cebu Business Park has given more
reasons for people to stay here. It embraces the development plans in
Makati. The Makati project started some 30 years ago, and it’s still
continuing.
Cebu likewise is till growing. The
next 20 years would be enough for Cebu. If there are more constructions,
then there are more working slots for the people in Cebu. For instance,
construction of homes will be seen in the Ayala property in Kang-irag,
Ayala Heights Cebu, an integrated master planned development on a highly
scenic mountain plateau.
With all of these construction
activities in the offing and at hand, we hope that the people may not
think the real estate development as something for the elite alone.
It’s for everybody.
