I am not sure if we do already have an existing thread for this since Hampton Gardens is been around for quite some time already but they have newly built towers and ready for occupancy as well.

The privately held property firm also recently completed a deal with the Rizal provincial government that saw a new provincial capitol built—at the company’s expense—in Antipolo City.

The transfer freed up the 10-hectare site of the former provincial capitol along Shaw Boulevard in Pasig City, which had originally belonged to Ortigas & Co. Under the original deal between the government and the firm, the property would be returned to the Ortigas family once it is vacated by the provincial government.

“We will start development of this property, called Capitol Commons, by next year,” Drilon said, explaining that it would be a mixed-use project with high-rise buildings and 67 percent of the property devoted to open spaces. “This will also be worth around P25 billion over a 10-year period.”

^^SM group acquires Danarra Hotel in QC (http://www.manilastandardtoday.com/insideBusop.htm?f=2009/december/10/rayenano.isx&d=/2009/december/10)
Manila Standard (http://www.manilastandardtoday.com/insideBusop.htm?f=2009/december/10/rayenano.isx&d=/2009/december/10)

There’s another Pacman in town, and it’s not the group of telecom honcho Manuel V. Pangilinan or the growing empire of investment banker Roberto V. Ongpin.

It’s SM Development Corp., the property arm of retail tycoon Henry Sy. The property firm is slowly building up its landbank and parlaying new lot acquisitions into office and residential condominiums.

The grapevine said SMDC recently bought the one-hectare, 86-room Danarra Hotel and Resort from the family of hotel president and general manager Mario Sarmiento for about P350 million. Mario is the son of patriarch Don Pablo Sarmiento, who owns listed Vitarich Corp., along with brothers Feliciano and Lorenzo. Another son of Don Pablo, Angelito, is the mayor of San Jose del Monte town in Bulacan and a former congressman of the province.

The grapevine said SMDC would take over Danarra Hotel in January next year, tear it down and build a high-rise office condominium to take advantage of the area’s strategic location. Danarra Hotel, a favorite hangout in the 70’s and 80’s, sits on a one-hectare property in Quezon City’s South Triangle, also called Timog Triangle. The hotel is sandwiched between Panay Avenue and Eugenio Lopez St. and just adjacent to television network ABS-CBN Broadcasting Corp.

SMDC’s Danarra Hotel’s acquisition followed the purchase of three new properties worth close to P2 billion last month. SMDC bought a one-hectare property near Welcome Rotonda in Quezon City, where it plans to build two residential condominiums under the Sun Residences brand. The Welcome Rotonda property was the site of a popular girlie bar in the 70’s.

SMDC also acquired a two-hectare lot along Jupiter Street in Makati City, where it plans to construct four residential towers called Jazz Residences. SMDC’s third acquisition is located on a two-hectare property in Mandaluyong City near the Boni Station of MRT 3, where the company plans to build Light Residences.

Hotel in debts

The grapevine said the Sarmiento family had to give up Danarra Hotel because of the hotel’s piling debt now estimated at over P400 million. The family also needed the money to revitalize Vitarich, which has just come out from court rehabilitation.

The hotel property in the late 50’s and 60’s originally served as the seven-bedroom house of Don Pablo and wife Doña Eufrocina and their nine children—Angelito, Leonila, Pablo Jr., Imelda, Myrna (deceased), Oscar, Eulogio, Mario and Carlito.

Don Pablo, sensing a business opportunity, transformed the one-hectare property into a lodging business. The house was often near-empty because Don Pablo’s children were almost always abroad for education.

The Sarmientos in 1964 converted their house into Tourist Hometel and in 1975 transformed it into a full-blown hotel business complete with a food and beverage service.

They renamed the expanded facility to Danarra Hotel, a name they borrowed from the popular plywood brand that the Sarmiento family produced and exported. Danarra plywood is derived from two popular local trees—Dao and Narra.

Ito o, ini-scan ko kasi natuwa talaga ako nung nakita ko ito. Medyo iconic kasi ang BSA for me, considering na mataas sya at nasa gawing harap ng EDSA kaya kitang-kita. Kaya napapa-isip ako lagi na sayang ang gusaling ito kung hindi magagamit :)

Hmmm, meron pala sa banda dun? meron pang isa sa Makati, near RCBC at GT, yung bldg. ni Sen. Enrile :ohno:

So far maganda yung kinalabasan nung sa Magallanes, yung supposedly sa Toyota. South Gate Mall ata yun. Sana maganda din ang kalabasan ng BSA.

ADB project ?

hindi po, named after the street which is ADB Avenue, same thing with One San Miguel Avenue :)

[GreenPeas]

Watta hole!

[darknyt1]

at least 7+ floor basement. This could be a very tall building. So its ADB Avenue tower at 35 storeys. It looks like the 20 up floors are bi-level/loft, making taller as it was in the rendering.
