^^ Eh, simple mistake. Anyway, can anyone post pics of the West Wing Beautification at Robinsons Galleria?

Once again, I question Ayala creativity for naming it Trinoma. I just hope the beauty of the mall would compensate for the name.

i'm sure name lang ang weird jan. just look at the size of that thing.. :lol: hehehe...
malapit ka lang pala dun, eh di araw-araw ayala na ang tambayan. hmm swerte.

^^the rendering for the west wing was scanned and posted in this thread.. but if ur looking for current developments... cguro people near galleria could tell us nlng. hehehe. :) cguro nagsimula na cla khit pano..

@ Jamaicus - thats good. Now, they have to make it affordable for commuters to use.

I agree with Sinjin. "Ayala North Triangle Mall" or "Ayala Centre North Triangle" are much better options. Trinoma is just plain stupid. Why does "Makati" even have to be in the name?


HHmmmnn "Ayala CENTRE NORTH Triangle" sound contradictory to me. :)

parang Teratoma! :hahaha:

bakit hindi nalang Ayala Northpoint as opposed to SM Centerpoint. :D

Ayala Malls: An Experience Above the Usual Shopping and Entertainment

There are malls. Then there are the Ayala Malls. An undeniable pioneer in the field, the Ayala Malls has time and again proved to be a cut above the rest. Through their unique offerings and specialized establishments, the Ayala Malls is truly dedicated to providing lifestyle - enhancing and innovative products that have become part of Filipino lives.

The Ayala Malls includes of course favored destinations Glorietta, Greenbelt, Alabang Town Center, Ayala Center Cebu, and Market! Market!

Looking into the future, the Ayala Malls once again raises the ante with the launch of five exciting developments, all with their distinct and customized range of products and services.

In northern Metro Manila, a new oasis will rise amidst the bustling urban landscape of Quezon City. Slated to open in 2007, Trinoma will be a 4-Level Super Regional Shopping Center that will have the best retail, dining and entertainment concepts for the whole family.

In Bonifacio Global City will rise two new destinations that will take the shopping experience to a different level. The Retail Promenade, an inspired blend of high energy and interactive retail, will have its stores located in twin boulevards banding a huge park. The other destination is the retail at Serendra where a fusion of cultures highlighting food, specialty retail and service establishments. Set in a two-level indoor-outdoor landscape, the retail at Serendra will create an esplanade that will give the public a taste of genuine multicultural lifestyles.

Down south, Ayala Center Cebu will have an expansion building and the re-development of the lagoon. The additional building will house the best local and international brands. The lagoon, on the other hand, will reflect Cebu's fun and vibrant culture which will serve as the focal point of the mall.

And finally, Makati will witness the rise of Greenbelt 5. Set to complete the Greenbelt re-development, it will be the city's center for high fashion where it will be home to both international luxury brands and a gathering of the best Filipino fashion couture. Greenbelt 5 will also house specialty shops carrying accessories, health, beauty and sports.

Ayala malls recently introduced these innovative projects through an impressive multi-media production that illustrated the group's vision for its future malls. Hosting the event were Ayala Land Chairman Fernando Zobel De Ayala; Ayala Corp. President, Jaime Augusto Zobel De Ayala; Ayala Land President, Jim Ayala; Ayala Malls Group Head Miriam Katigbak; and Vice-President for Ayala Malls Operations, Rowena Tomeldan.

Seen during the launch were Ayala Malls merchant partners, friends from the Philippine Retailer's Association and Fashion & Design Council of the Philippines.

Whichever of the Ayala Malls establishments one visits, the experience promises to be distinct and rewarding. With shopping options that range from the most affordable to the exquisite, dining that is always satisfying, and world-class entertainment facilities; there is always something fun and exciting going on at Ayala Malls!

i saw galleria on my way from shaw to cubao a while ago... they're already installing the escalators... and thank god its not really blue.. (as of now) :)

sorry no pix... i was inside the mrt and it was masikip as in. :)

More updates on Virra mall?

parang Teratoma! :hahaha:

bakit hindi nalang Ayala Northpoint as opposed to SM Centerpoint. :D

Ayala Center North EDSA nalang kaya. :hahaha: O, tapatan na ng North EDSA malls

why can't they just use a word for north in euskara which is the basque language... y the way, the ayalas are basque

ANT mall??

^^ ok naman pala kung ANT yung tawag sa shortcut, kung sa shangrila-'shang, Robinsons-'Galle', Megamall-'mega', glorietta-g4... :)

Ever Gotesco Malls, and Uniwide.... They still exist today but they were overtaken by SM and Robinson. They did not succeed in maintaining industry leadership.

diba parang disturbing naman ung ANT?
--------------------------------------
imagine:
GF: baby, lets go na to ANT? i need to buy a new bolero.. gosh..
BF: sure baby.. lets go to ANT... i'll drive.. :)

-----------
i dont talk like that! :) hehehe...
--------------------------------------

ayala north or something is better.. :) hehehe...

Ayala Center North EDSA nalang kaya. :hahaha: O, tapatan na ng North EDSA malls

I didn't realize that if my suggestion earlier (as seen above) will be converted to an acronym, it would be ACNE. Ewww. :hilarious

How about Isetann, Liana's and Star Mall? Buhay pa ba ang mga 'yun?

^^ Ever Gotesco is really "not that nice" to me, it needs total renovation in the inside. It's not well maintained. I hope that instead of building and building malls, why not try to renovate the ugly ones. :jk:

Keb: "ma! gigimik lang kami sa acne..."
mother: "ha?"

well, it wounds funny and irritating to the ear, hahahahaha. Ayala North will do. :)

Ang Tutuban Mall ba is a tagalog word or a name? I Never heard malls named in tagalog... :dunno:

Tutuban, I guess, is the name of the district where the mall stands. :dunno:

Who knows that SM Mall near Manila City Hall? Is it an eyesore on the historical area?

I passed by that area and it is indeed an eyesore. A concrete box (and it is unpainted!) is clearly seen as you drive through the City Hall. :)

if they were planning to build a mall in place that is historical, dapat - yung design nung SM na yun, fits to the manila city hall, just like the sm in baguio, the design looks like a tent that fits in the hill. A mall like Greenbelt could fit in a place like Palawan, Bohol, Davao - if these city booms...

^^ Yet, some mall developers would rather focus one expenditures of construction rather than mall beauty.

Olive's Plaza and City Mall in Ninoy Aquino Ave., Paranaque

Keb: "ma! gigimik lang kami sa acne..."
mother: "ha?"

well, it wounds funny and irritating to the ear, hahahahaha. Ayala North will do. :)

Ang Tutuban Mall ba is a tagalog word or a name? I Never heard malls named in tagalog... :dunno:

tutuban is where the mall stands.. sinjin is right.

thats the village infront of my former school!(for 1 year only)...are you going to the internet cafe in that village?
Btw, the national bookstore is beautiful, it will also compete with merriam webster bookstore(correct me if i'm wrong)...also the bookstore of LORES there are really small amounts of costumers going there sometimes there are really no costumers at all, even the small bookstores in M.L. Quezon outbested that bookstore

d ako pumupunta dun sa internet cafe samin eh... sa bahay lang ako. :)

Tutuban is the name of the original train station there, of which only the façade designed by Gustav Eiffel, currently remains.
The façade of the "Tutuban Centermall I" is the original façade of the Tutuban Station.

sa tingin ko kaya hindi successful ang uniwide malls is yung idea na mag-jump sila sa pagiging mall..mas Ok na siguro sa kanila ung warehouse system, mas doon sila kilala eh.. pero a better plan and strategy siguro kayang i-step up yung idea na maging mall ang uniwide..
yung coastal mall ok pa naman yung design..nakapunta ako dun once for a survey involving the area at yun parang hindi mall yung loob, may mga areas na hindi pa ata gawa at nakatiwangwang, madami ding tambay na hindi mo pagkakatiwalaan hehe and as i remember merong parang grand stair case yata or something sa loob..basta hehe...

sa may zapote, bacoor beside mercury drug sa kalinisan area meron din isang mall na ginawa doon eh ewan ko kung ano nangyari dun, as far as i remember mei cinema din yata..yun nga lang yung isang entry sa mall ay nakatutok sa residential area..

ewan ko ba bakit sumusugal pa den sa pagtatayo ng malls yung iba..sana commercial rental spaces na lang..

pero why was the station named tutuban? it must have been the place, to name it the tutuban station... :)

http://www.halohalo.info/JAPANsite/photo-studio/Street/tutuban.jpg

the images actually fooled me... parang nasa spain or france. :) it looks nice. :)

TEC Center in Tunasan , Muntinlupa City , a long but narrow , two-level commercial center with 2 cinemas on the 2nd level and commercial spaces on ground level . It ceased operation less than three years with the closure of its small cinemas and then the shops. But there was a time that it was almost full house . It was partially opned
recently with a few shops on the entrance and a gym on the middle of the building .
It is side by side t to the perimeter of the SM Mall under construction in the area .

Robinsons Metro Bacolod i have heard that it will closed , or maybe close already, i dunno yet. Sayang dalawa pa naman sana ang Robinsons mall sa Bacolod.

why naman isasara? nalugi?

Maybe, because there's not enough shoppers , and wala masyadong tenants sa mall. But they will convert the mall into a casino daw? Sayang talaga, Bacolod is the first city to have 2 Robinsons mall outside Metro Manila.

casino.. perhaps still owned by robinsons or binenta na talaga nila...?

or maybe they'll also use they're strategy for their loosing malls here in metro.. maybe they'll put up a call center inside.

They will either sell the place or maybe PAGCOR will leased it, There was a negotiation already but i dunno kung ano na ang resulta.

is Uniwide Coastal Mall , Pearl Plaza and Airport Citimall , all in Paranaque still operating ?

I remember Pearl Plaza ( along Quirino Ave . Baclaran ) has a nice interior but wrong location and like Uniwide Coastal Mall , it really did not take off . Airport Citimall for a time was doing good business before , but when SM Sucat opened , Citimall got mangled and it is now host to AirForce One bar .

^^That's a great piece of Spanish Heritage in the Philippines!

gateway and the newly renovated national bookstore... the building on the far left will also be renovated (may rendering sa harapan... gagawing christian church if my memory serves me right?

^^ Thanks for the updates!

I like SM Megamall's pathway, ang laki ng pinag-bago ng SM, dati whole 2 bosed shape, ngayun, still a box shaped (LOL) but in a modern way naman... I hope that they will renovate all the SM's that are old...

they also renovated SM sta. mesa... it still looks like a box... but a cute box.. :) hehehe... i'll take pix of it, probably bukas.,. :)

honestly i dont like mega's interiors... i really dont know why.. meron lang kakaiba.. is it just me?

Wow. National Bookstore looks interesting. How red.

Thanks for the update, Kevin!:)
The new national bookstore looks interesting. blends well with Gateway.

You also gave MCB transport taxi free advertising:D

hahaha!!! marunong na din ako mag-post ng pics... 3 days kong pinag-aralan LOL :jk: :)

i thought its TRIangle NOrth MAll

^^ It should but someone at Ayala came up with that stupid name. TRIANGLE NORTH OF MAKATI? Strike one on Ayala's credibility.

^^ yeah. it doesnt make sense at all. hehehe

the weird thing is, why does makati need to be in the freakin name? ang layo nga niya sa makati eh,.,

this is ayala's first atempt to break into the 'north' market and they still put 'makati' in the name... so sad.

ITS LIKE AN INSULT TO Q.C.! Its like saying "Hey, Makati is the classiest place to be. Hah! Q.C., that sleepy dump, lets put Makati in our new mall's name because its CLASSY" .STUPID!

here's a pic of the Mezza (and it's still a 'MeZz') LOL :) hahaha, nag-post pa ako ng update, wala naman taong gumagawa ng some action... :jk:

ITS LIKE AN INSULT TO Q.C.! Its like saying "Hey, Makati is the classiest place to be. Hah! Q.C., that sleepy dump, lets put Makati in our new mall's name because its CLASSY" .STUPID!

sama naman, bakit kasi di nalang Q.C. what's the prob with that? For sure, there will be a time na mas - gaganda pa ang Q.C. kaysa sa Makati, lalo na kung puno na yung lots ng Makati CBD, nakoh... edi lilipat na ang mga bagong "classy buildings" sa new CBD of our own... which will be the triangles... I believe that it Q.C. will be a famous city someday... :)

^^ Amen to that!

actually... qc peeps can be more glitsy-glamory than makati peeps... just go to the morato-timog area... you'll see what i mean... :)

^^ Well, this is due to its closeness to ABS-CBN and some people from Makati converge in Tomas Morato-Timog area.

and the newer companies and investors in the philippines would surely locate in the new triangles cbd coz makati and ortigas are pretty much crowded...

Even as a Q.C. fan, I think they will first locate themselves at Fort Boni and Eastwood before going to the new Q.C. CBD.

^^ Amen to that!

balang araw, for sure mang-yayari yan, Tsaka mas-malaki ang Q.C. there are so many greens in Q.C. Nasa sa atin nga ang tv stations, important institutional buildings etc. There's always a Hope for Q.C. :) so think positive... hahaha, tsaka may squaters din naman ang Makati eh, di lang naman tayo. Mas magaling mayor natin!!! hahaha LOL. There trees are only man-made, sa atin, purely Godly made... :)

well, that if these would also become crowded... lets count 20 years... :) i just hope they start developments soon... so investors would have more choices. :)

^^ Remember, they already started with investemts. The semi-CBD, Eastwood is a success for Q.C. and the new Triangles CBD has already a big time investor, Ayala with its mall, TRINOMA(feels weird just typing it).

well, i'm sure this would become successful in no time.. :)
--------------------
ngayon ko lang naalala nasa mega metro malls thread tayo... :)

ok.. back to malls. hehehe... :)

:cheer: "Go Q.C.!!!" :cheer: hahaha... :)

^^ Yes go :) ! You should do that on the Q.C. thread. Anyway, to those who knows, Robinsons mall updates please.

i saw that they started installing the escalators in galleria.

^^ Really, interesting!

and if you saw the rendering diba blue? when i saw it.. hindi xa blue... i hope they just keep its present color (kahit pala ung side na un eh ni-repaint dati)... ang pangit talaga kung blue... parang toy store... (kahit na may toys r us dun sa loob) :)

what about shangrila mall? I saw that they are removing the Logo of Shangrila, and I think they will re-paint it, I'm not sure about that...

Well, malls are really developing. I think the Philippines is experiencing a Retail-Mall and a real estate boom.

when i went to mega mall last friday i also saw shang... ang nakita ko lang side ay ung nakaharap sa edsa... it was nice na.

SM is now updating the tenant mix sa kanilang malls... SM Fairview now has Fitness First sa tenant roster nila... the first SM branch of the popular fitness center.

^^ Actualy, I think there is a fitness first in SM North way before in Fairview.

^^ Actualy, I think there is a fitness first in SM North way before in Fairview.

ang meron sa SM north yung Slimmer's World... tsaka wala ng space for new gyms sa place na yun... kung magkakaroon sa annex 3 siguro?!

imposible nang magkaroon ng fitness first sa north edsa... they have one in abs cbn which is pretty near.

So, who has pics of the Robinsons Ortigas development.

Isn't Eastwood overcrowded with buildings in such a tiny space? With overbuilding , its now comparable ( for me ) to that development of those medium rise , pink cluster of buildings in Mandaluyong .

That's OK as long as the place is not going to feel claustrophobic. Places in other World Cities like NYC (Times Square) are packed with buildings, retail establishments, stores etcetera and yet they still look great.

new article...but nothing we didnt already know

ALI allots P4B for new malls
By Zinnia B. Dela Peña
The Philippine Star 04/06/2006

Property giant Ayala Land Inc. (ALI) has earmarked P4 billion this year for the construction of new malls as it strives to increase its gross leasable area by 400,000 square meters (sqm) in the next five years, company president Jimmy Ayala said yesterday.

Among these new malls are Tri Noma, a project of the North Triangle Depot Commercial Corp. which will rise on a 200,000-sqm property; Greenbelt 5, which will have 30,000 sqm of gross leasable area; Ayala Center Cebu; and the retail portion at Serendra in Makati.

The Tri Noma, positioned to be the entertainment and dining nucleus of Quezon City, is targeted for completion completed in 2007 with Landmark Department Store as the anchor tenant.

Tri Noma will also have a new public transport terminal to be developed in the depot site, making the commercial center a major inter-modal transport hub and public convergence point.

As a fashion lifestyle center, Greenbelt 5, on the other hand, will be opening its doors to the public in 2008 with 31,250 sqm of leasable space. The retail portion at Serendra, meanwhile, comprises 6,400 sqm and is being patterned after the Soho-Greenwich area of Manhattan in New York.

The expansion of Ayala Center Cebu will add about 13,500 sqm to the existing mall.

Ayala said ALI is also planning to divest some of its real estate properties no longer considered as strategic for the group. It has a total landbank of 4,159 hectares, consisting of four components:

Makati (54 hectares), Bonifacio Global City (44 hectares), Canlubang (1,696 hectares) and 2,365 hectares in other parts of the country. The company is considering selling 400 hectares of its existing landbank.

For 2006, ALI has earmarked P15 billion to P16 billion for its capital expenditures, more than double the 2005 budget.

Of the total, 56 percent will go to residential developments, 26 percent (shopping centers), seven percent (office buildings) and the balance to landbanking activities.

In the office leasing segment, ALI is building an eight-storey structure for Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corp. in a 12,000-sqm lot in Fort Bonifacio. It is also developing a call center building for INFONXX, a directory call center on a 10,000 square meter lot in Sta. Rosa, Laguna.

The company is planning to develop more build-to-suit office buildings outside the Makati Central Business District. In April 2005, it completed People Support Center.

ALI chief financial officer Jaime Ysmael said funding for the capex will come from a combination of internally generated cash and new borrowings.

To broaden market reach and tap the growing market of overseas-based Filipinos, ALI will also launch new residential projects for the middle-income and mass housing markets and continue to roll out new phases in existing projects including Ayala Westgrove Heights,

Ayala Greenfield Estates and Serendra.

Despite the difficulties faced by the property sector last year, ALI reported a 21 percent growth in its net income to P3.62 billion from P2.99 billion in 2004 on higher mall rentals and real estate sales and asset disposals.

Robinsons Galleria West Wing:

Escalators being installed
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b210/ofngol/Photo_040406_037x.jpg

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b210/ofngol/Photo_040406_038x.jpg

I know there is this restoration in Robinsons Ortigas but, is the quality of Robinsons still ok?

It seems na lahat ng available space sa Galleria , na maximize talaga from its multi-level basement parking to the numerous buildings connected to the mall . Hopefully , maganda ang pagkakagawa ng West Wing para naman ma-justify ang pag -occupy nila ng every inch of space available , luma na rin naman kasi ang facade ng mall sa EDSA so sana mag-improve .

Hey, why hasn't been anyone started talking about the Robinsons Place Manila Expansion yet? They already have the rendering up on a tapaulin along Pedro Gil St. They're adding al fresco dining, 3 more cinemas, and moving and expanding the department store. The expansion occupies the area of the former Midtown hotel (sabi ko na nga ba the Adriatico towers wouldn't occupy this spot). As of now, it's just at the digging stage but I think it'll go fast since it's only around 3 or 4 levels naman (plus underground parking siguro).

it's a good thing na rinerenovate, pinapagandahan, ine-extend nila ang mga malls

the west wing of galleria is really shaping up... i just hope the finish product wont look soooooooo blue like the one in the rendering... grrr. :)

That area is great for a glassy edifice, why don't Robinson's invest more money to make a swanky building???

I didn't realize that Robinson's Galleria was less than 200,000 square meters.

I did notice that they seem to be putting an escalator outside the mall facing EDSA....

Ang galing kasi ng pagka-maximize nila ng space sa Robinson Galleria , pero maliit lang talaga ang land area niya compared sa SM Megamall at Shangrila

Are they also renovating Shangrila?

Rinerenovate ata yung Shang eh, sabi ng sis ko, tapos na.

kaya nag facelift ang rob galleria kasi napagiiwanan na ng other malls like megamall and greenhills.

masyado na kasing masikip sa location ng rob galleria kaya limited din yung expansion.
maganda siguro kung yung vacant lot sa kabilang kalasda(vacant nga ba?) bilihin nila tas, patayuan nila ng annex tas mag link na lng sila ng bridgeway.
hehehe, masyado complikado, pero astig. di hassle sa pagtawid.

yung vaccant... diba yun yung lote ng landing helipad?

di ko kasi alm kung ano yun, kung yun nga yun, eh di sa roof deck nung annex ilagay.

oongah noh... pwede din... hahaha, sa roof deck na lang... :)

maganda kung ma uutilize yung space na un.

--------------------------------------
ang kulit ko pero sana wag nila gayahin ung rendering nila na kulay blue!! ang sagwa. sana kasing kulay nung rest ng galleria.

I think it is better for Robinsons to be clad with aluminum cover.

anything is better than their blue rendering. :)

Ok if blue, as in the aluminum clad should be blue.

ok... blue if blue... as long as it would look good. and not cheap. :) that would be ok.

they are renovating Robinsons again? thanks for the updates.

If you think about it Robinson's Galle is at the crossroads of two of the busiest roads in the Philippines. It's no surprise it gets dirty so quickly. Either the management should hire constant cleaners or reclad it in something less dirt attractive.

less ADS
more glass

ok din kung may electronic billboard

Nice:) It took Toys R Us a long time to open a store in the Philippines...:sly:

less ADS
more glass

ok din kung may electronic billboard

Ads give them more revenue so let's leave them with that. ;)

di kasi maganda sa mata, lalo na kung misplaced. pwede namng maglagay ng ads na hindi natatakpan yung outer architecture nung structure. using E-board o kaya iayos nila yung pagkakalagay, yung hindi pangit tignan.

:omg: !!! anong itsura na sa loob, mapunta nga dyan, tagal ko na kasing di pumupunta dyan eh, sayang... hahahaha, :)

nice... i only had a lil peek... mukhang maluwag at maganda... mukhang maliwanag din sa loob... the last time i've been there konti palang daw ang tenants... ang major tenants include the SM co-anchors..

ewan ko lang ngaun kung madami nang tenant.. tagal na din ako d nakakapag greenhills..

-------------------------------------------------------

btw... that blue rendering of galleria still gives me the creeps... if its really going to look soooo blue at least they should try not to let it look cheap..

they should just follow the color of the other wing...

^^konti pa rin ang stores sa v-mall. food court is puno...the jewelry section on the top floor is still empty. but i like the way the mall looks.

million miles away from the old one

ayan!!!, cortesi of Divorak... ang laki ng GB5! ano ba yan dati? di ko napansin?

Do we have a rendering of Grenbelt 5? A poster near the construction site?

WIll the Greenbelt 5 be another Greenbelt 3 with all the gorgeous architecture and beautiful landscapes? I hope it would exceed the majesty of the 3rd Greenbelt because if it does, well, that would be great isnt it? Greenbelt should concentrate more on having signature designer luxury label boutiques like Jimmy Choo and the like. If you look at our neighbors (BKK, KL, Jak, Spore), they all have a rather "fair" share of designer labels, unlike MM, hay nako, nakakaganda ng image ang maraming Louis Vuitton stores sa isang city kasi siyempre sosyal!

Yeah, I get that feeling when I'm on Makati Ave. on the side of Landmark facing Greenbelt. Sarap tingnan ng mga taong naglalakad, mga luxury cars tapos yung background Gucci, LV, Bvlgari, DKNY, Ferragamo...maganda pa ung architecture ng GB4. Parang wala ka sa third world!

di yata imported signature labels ang ilalagay ditos a GB5.. ang sabi eh mga local brands..

Dubbed Greenbelt 5, this new wing will be the home of 16 new restaurants offering international cuisine, leading global fashion and luxury brands, galleries to showcase top Filipino artists and fashion houses owned by world-class local designers.

To add to the sprawling, inspiring beauty of Greenbelt’s greens, Ayala Malls has hired SWA Group of California to create a more enthralling landscaping. Greenbelt 5 will be completed in September 2007.

Are they also renovating Shangrila?

It's never a question since it seems like Shangri-La Plaza is always under renovation with never-ending improvements.
I noticed that there are always certain sections of the mall which is in the works.
That' why it always looks new.
It has also experienced several facelifts on the façade since it's birth.

Para pala syang alagang-Vicki-Belo, laging nireretoke. :D
But like what I believe, better retokado than panget. :colgate:

BTW, right now, I noticed that the area between the two entrances of Debenhams are covered, I wonder what store will be emerging there.

where's debenhams?

WIll the Greenbelt 5 be another Greenbelt 3 with all the gorgeous architecture and beautiful landscapes? I hope it would exceed the majesty of the 3rd Greenbelt because if it does, well, that would be great isnt it? Greenbelt should concentrate more on having signature designer luxury label boutiques like Jimmy Choo and the like.

Oongah, maganda nga tingnan yung Greenbelt 3 katapat yung Greenbelt 5 with the same design and architecture... :)

where's debenhams?

Debenhams... >>> may pic ata sa malls thread dati, pero I'm not yet sure, hindi pa kasi ako member sa SSC nun, na-browse ko lang, Debenhams >> yun yung area na rinenovate sa Shangrila mall... It looks expensive, lalo na yung flooring, super puti, etc. and yung mga damit, di namin na-afford, lalo na nung nag-hahanap ako ng long sleeves sa prom... :)

ang ganda pala ng sm megamall pag gabi...

i love the walkway of megamall with all those curves... hehehe... :) and ngaun ko lang nakita na maganda din pala pag gabi...

Debenhams is a British retail store similar to Marks and Spencer though the latter carries several established UK brands.

MM malls have a fair share of luxury brands too, esp. Greenbelt, Shangri-la and Rockwell malls. Some of these brands are (the ones with freestanding stores) Gucci, Bottega Venetta, Bulgari, Tod's and LV. A lot more brands are available in Rustan's and other stores.

For Italian fashion, check out Tutto Moda and Linea Italia (and its sister stores).

Kenzo, Cavalli, Lucky Jeans, Jil Sander, Ljunder, D&G, Dsquared and Marc Jacobs are available in Rustan's.

whats the name of that three part mall again... i cant remember...

Hey Guys,

Here are some pictures of the entrance of the new V-Mall (Formerly Virra Mall). It's very modern and High class ang dating :)

Nice...those close ups make it look like the Podium. Any shots that show the whole building?

whats the name of that three part mall again... i cant remember...

Silver City mall or sumthing? or MC Mall. :?

Yup, V-mall is prettier these days, but I miss the old virra mall with lots more things in it because the new mall only has a few shops (even though almost all the slots are filled)

I agree with you sista...iyan din sabi ng friends ko...i dont have interior photos :_( since i live more than 2,000 kms away...hahaha...i miss the bread connection...at saka filbars...duon naubos lahat ng allowance ko dati


at saka national bookstore...

i wouldn't have done a lot of my projects without national bookstore manila paper ...hehehe and bristel boards...

SISTA: if u visit V-mall...papicture naman ng loob ng new mall :) tutal im sure lapit lang ICA.


I heard theyre gonna redo the Shoppesville this year din? does it mean the end of tiangge's? can anyone please confirm this?

maganda yung vmall kaya lang maliit...

* STARMALL is still in business even with the giants around and some not so giant nearby

Having a newly renovated Virra mall would be great pero wala na nyan yung mga smuggled na murang gamit! Waaahh!

^^ Does StarMall in Las Piñas still have its own loyal patrons?

Never mind, there's always Theatre Mall for clothes that are better than tiangge-quality with prices that are so reasonable. Besides, my fave Shoppesville stores have already set-up shop in Theatre Mall.

I really haven't explored Greenhills that much... Umm, yung "The Shops" at yung defunct "Virra Mall" lang ang napuntahan ko... :(

or pwede rin tayo mag shuffle papuntang St. Francis Square... :D

i brought my tourist friend to shoppesville and he went crazy sa mga bargains

So it's telling us to pack up and go straight to Divisoria-Tutuban! :lol:

nah :tongue2: sorry, di ako mayaman para gumastos ng napakalaki para isang t-shirt or kung ano ano man na mawawala rin sa uso

Sista: salamats in advance to take pictures sa loob ng v-mall and surroundings :)

Is YP mall in Sucat still operating ?

nah :tongue2: sorry, di ako mayaman para gumastos ng napakalaki para isang t-shirt or kung ano ano man na mawawala rin sa uso

So, hindi ka UZIcera, ikaw ay USOcera... :)

less ADS
more glass

ok din kung may electronic billboard

i just had to reply...

more glass = more heat = more energy needed for airconditioning during summer = higher energy costs...

^^or they can use super thick tinted/reflective glass so sunlight can't get thru dba :)

I thought this thread was already closed and has reached 500 posts.
What happened to the other posts? Deleted? :dunno:

sa paranaque, uniwide coastal mall, airport citi mall, olivarez mall, tsaka pure gold yata? may sm sucat tsaka sm bicutan na kasi, kaya siguradong lugi na sila!

di nmn summer buong taon, tsaka sa glass technology ngaun, siguro nmn makakaafford sila ng hi tech and hi quality glass.

Greenbalt 5 really looks nice!!! kaperehas ng other greenbelt malls... what about the interior?

Just reposting a TRINOMA mall :

http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c341/JAMAICUS/AyalaNorthTriangleMall-NearPhilam.jpg

if MOA is all about the size, this is more about the class, just like most Ayala malls are. who needs the paragon now? :)

^^ Actually, I found the Siam Paragon in BKK really nice. Shangri-la, Glorietta, Power Plant don't even come close. The mall's marine park is larger than Sentosa's Underwater world. The exterior is just amazing with all the fountains and stuff. The interior is wow, even the grocery is so out-of-this-world! I think it's the best indoor-oriented mall in the planet.

But of course, Greenbelt is a different thing...But the interior of Paragon is miles away from Greenbelt mall's. Yet I acknowledge Greenbelt for being an outdoor type of mall. Greenbelt also has a huge garden. It's something Siam Paragon doesn't have.

Paragon? what Paragon?:D I'd take Greenbelt and Trinoma style malls any day;)

But thats not to say Paragon is not nice. Its very elegant and does well to attract its target customers.

Oh, i have a question now. Will Trinoma have high end signature brands like GB4 and Paragon?

As an ultranationalist and IMHO,in my eyes, I will always prefer our malls. I just hope SM Mall of Asia would open soon.

^^Yeah, I am anticipating that the MoA will look(the interiors at least) and feel better than any other mall in the world!!

trinoma is something i look forward to...if Bangkok has Siam Paragon as the newest hippest mall...Manila will have Trinoma...

ganda ng Greenbelt 5!

http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y215/jafhoy/GB5.jpg

Cam we please have more GREENBELT 5 pics!Please!

Um. Kind of off-topic, but does anyone know where I can find a yellow Ninoy T-shirt (or a Marcos T-shirt)?

Well I don't know why you'd like a Marcos shirt but you can typically find that stuff sa taas ng Shoppesville... doon sa may Shoppesville Plus... that labyrinth (kung hindi pa niremodel yun).

VirraMall... :eek: Whoah. It looks so new! WOW.

But to me, it's not VirraMall (or VMall, whatever it's called) if it doesn't have balls. Squidballs (kikiam rin). And also dibididibidi.

Yung mga dibididibidi naglipana sa strip between Shoppesville at Theatre Mall.

wala na yata ung shops ng dvd eh... puro patago lahat kung may nagbebenta pa.

Paragon? what Paragon?:D I'd take Greenbelt and Trinoma style malls any day;)

But thats not to say Paragon is not nice. Its very elegant and does well to attract its target customers.

I would have to agree with GreyX's comment. SInce the Philippines is situated in a region that is constantly bombarded with the sun's heat waves, it would be great to have an area that is close to plants, flowers, trees, ponds, and everything nature!

And come on, sooner or later, another tycoon is going to invest in something that is grander than paragon or even grander! Remember that Filipinos love shopping and even if malls don't target the tourists, they still have the Filipinos as targets, there would always be a need to have a good mall somewhere...

^^And that, I hope, will be MoA.

Wow...VirraMall looks good. Seems like they are attracting the high end market now.

What brands will open a dealership in the automall?

when will SM hypermart frontera open? looks like ambilis. :)

I don't know the exact date, but it's opening within this year.

ngaun ko lang npansin ung shape ng sm frontera... SM talaga oh! hindi na umalis sa shoebox concept... they didnt even try to blend in with tiendesitas.. tsk tsk.. i hope the paint of the SM will try to compensate for its lame box like shape.

^^Yeah. really disappointing. Pero it's just a hypermarket, like WalMart or Carrefour, kaya ok lang yung box look. Pero again, iba pa rin ang unique na hindi boxy design.

SM Frontera looks massive. Is it a 2-level store? Does anyone have figures, like square meters?

SM Frontera Supercenter is 55000 square meters big. Judging by the looks of it, I think it's a bi-level hypermarket.

^^ 55,000 square meters? So, it's definitely larger than SM Molino

grabe, sa area ng Ortigas, sobrang dami na ng malls na naitayo.

uu nga eh, tas di pa kuntento, may renovation at expansions pa.

i remember back in the old days when going to Greenhills Shopping Center and Virra Mall, it is a haven for comic books, collectible cards, RC cars, PX goods, video games, imported movies, etc.

the RC car race track at the third level. yeah, the comic book stores, there's like 5 or 6 ata.

yan ata ang mall kung saan nagsisimula ang uso or trend tapos kumakalat na sa ibang malls.

and they are so close to each other too. that hypermart is so close to robinsons and tiendesitas and megamall.

Ano-ano ba ang complete list ng malls at pati upcoming ones sa Greenhills/ Ortigas / Frontera Verde/ Crossing-Shaw-EDSA corridor ...paki -update us thanks.

medyo off-topic, ang ganda nung daan sa Julia vargas from c5, hahaha, wala lang, maganda kasi yung reflector sa mismong road, parang runway sa airport.

You forgot sumthing, Metrowalk, and the EDSA-Shaw MRT Station Mall.

Some other special mention:
Pearl Plaza (infront of UA&P), El Pueblo (restaurant and bar complex across The Podium), Soho Central retail.

ayun! Metro walk, hahaha. alam ko yung Pearl Plaza. hahaha, madalas kiniwento ng ate ko from her school there.

Oh, hiwalay pala yung sa MRT, kala ko kasi part un ng EDSA Central. Di ko sinali Metrowalk and El Pueblo kasi puro kainan eh. Pero it's good to know that Soho will having its own mall.

wow, daming malls, and there would be 1 more railway to be build in the future Shaw... edi mas-dumami yung mga tao. Well, that's nice for Ortigas to have plenty of retail and commercial areas.

^^They should develop the place para maging pedestrian-friendly at maging mala-Orchard Road or Pathumwan..

How about yung Highway 54 ? considered ba ?

Oh, hiwalay pala yung sa MRT, kala ko kasi part un ng EDSA Central. Di ko sinali Metrowalk and El Pueblo kasi puro kainan eh. Pero it's good to know that Soho will having its own mall.

It's actually part of EDSA Central, so EDSA Central now has the EDSA Central Pavillion (the new one along EDSA), EDSA Central (the one along Shaw, currently being redeveloped), EDSA Central - MRT Station Mall, and the Soho Central retail.

BTW, we forgot to add The Annex @ Shaw, it has already resumed construction.
It's gonna be a mixed-use mall (residential units, call-centers, magkaka-gym din yata dun, of course the retail spaces and parking, etc.)

How about yung Highway 54 ? considered ba ?

Pwede na siguro. :)

^^ Wow! Is that a soon to be constructed mall ?

EDIT: Okay, here's the article
By Zinnia B. Dela Peña
The Philippine Star 04/22/2006

Robinsons Land Corp. (RLC) the property arm of Gokongweis’ flagship firm JG Summit Holdings Inc., has earmarked as much as P7 billion this year for the development of new malls, office buildings for business process outsourcing (BPO) firms, residential projects, and landbanking activities.

In an interview with reporters following the company’s annual stockholders’ meeting the other day, RLC executive vice-president Frederick Go said the capital budget for the year is double the amount spent a year ago.

Go said bulk of the programmed capital budget or about P3.5 billion will go to the construction of residential and office buildings while P2 billion has been set aside for acquisition of properties for future development.

Funding will come from internally-generated cash, a planned preferred share offering, and possibly new borrowings.

JG Summit president and chief operating officer Lance Gokongwei said the company is building seven new malls in Davao, Tagaytay, Dumaguete, Sucat, Manila, Pangasinan, and General Santos. These new malls, he said, are expected to be completed next year or in 2008.

He said the company is completing the redevelopment of a portion of Robinsons Galleria mall to be called West Wing, and Robinsons Ermita.

"We will pursue new formats and concepts to attract more retail establishments as these proved to be successful in bringing foot traffic into our malls," Gokongwei said.

He said the company remains focused on the lucrative middle-market residential housing as it aims to launch at least three projects this year including East of Galleria, a high-rise residential condominium located in the Ortigas business district.

As for its office buildings, RLC expects to complete the construction of Robinsons Cybergate Center Tower 2, an office building complex designed for call centers and BPO firms. "The first building is almost leased out and there is robust demand for the second building. A portion of the second building will be made available for lease by the end of fiscal year 2006 and the rest will be delivered in the second quarter of fiscal year 2007. It will add a gross leasable area of approximately 43,000 square meters," Gokongwei said.

As for the housing segment, he said the company will focus on the middle-income market for lots with options for housing priced ranging from P600,000 to P2 million.

Gokongwei said RLC will step up efforts to acquire properties via joint venture in key cities where there is big potential for mid-market real estate property sales and it will aggressively tap the overseas Filipino wokers market in Europe and in the Middle East.

Hi, I'm a little new to SSC.

Anyway, I don't think I've seen anyone here in the Philippine Forum post renderings of SM-KS. A little browsing on Google and Emporis and I found these:

I can see how the design derives from The Podium.

Um, dunno if these were ever posted alreadyhttp://graphics.gaiaonline.com/images/template/smiles/icon_sweatdrop.gif...
