All it says is that the masterplanner is Edmonds International, probably they're the architects as well.

Wow...what a pleasant surprise. That looks awesome

Yeah, it looks like something out of NYC.

^^Now this is a really classy development. RLC should learn a thing or two on classy development from this especially after their :ohno: design of Sonata in Ortigas.

No kidding eh? You know, I'm beginning to sense a pattern here. There was a time when RLC were really building grand skyscrapers and other mixed used projects. To name a few...Robinsons Equitable, Robinsons Galleria, Galleria Regency, Robinsons Summit, etc. Now most of the projects that they come up nowadays tend to be generic and cookie cutter. This is probably because they think they are so well established that the very name of the company is the sole selling point, they don't really care how boring their projects turn out.

Other major developers such as Megaworld seem to be following that trend but they still manage to turn up some decent projects. Nonetheless seems that the best projects that are being proposed now come from lesser known developers trying to prove themselves that they do can offer even better products to prospective real estate buyers. Lets just hope for the sake of the high rise development of our cities that these lesser known developers are able to successfully push through with their projects. I really like the Currency and this Nuvo City and hope they do well financially.

WOW this one just looks awesome...i want a unit here :colgate:

I have a question to all real estate pros here, Does the cost of a building increases as the floor/storey gets higher?? To site an example the cost of a 3-4storey is different to a 5-20 storey and the latter also different for a 21-30storey on a single structure.

So as the storey increases the cost of construction also increases, is there a truth to this? Does cost to "build" really increase as the project progress vertically?

Nuvoland rocks. Very modern. Awesome design. Definitely better than Rockwell IMHO. Look at their design it's curtain wall glass for all towers. I hope they're successful.

The Infinity I heard is sold out. Im excited at how this tower will turn out. Maybe this tower would look better than SOMA.

I like how the real estate industry is evolving better designs for skyscrapers. Fort Victoria turned out to be a surprise also. Currency as well.

We might see a major shift of demand being met by hungry real estate developers wanting to get a piece of the action. This Nuvoland might represent a new breed of developers that give cutting edge designs. Yehey!!!

it reminds me of Sears Tower

http://img375.imageshack.us/img375/5163/nuvocityrm6.jpg

this is like the usual projects in other SEA countries. im glad that we're finally catching up coz ive noticed that most of the u/c buildings here are quite cheap-looking. so when is the completion of this project, 2015?

the site plan looks cheaply drawn unlike the perspective, oh well, i still hope that the finish product would loook like this.

yes, there is an architectural firm name Edminds international from Mexico

nuvoland = infinity, nice and fanciful, lets see if they can finish selling the whole project, doesn't seem to have other uses except for condo.

yes cost goes up obviously from ground to 2nd then to 5th then to 8th or 10th (depending on construction firm), then every 16 or 20, to 30 etc. Not only in terms of structure but also because of MEP concernes as for mobility.

I agree @TheRick. I hope I am wrong too but something is definitely not right here. The multi-tower rendering seems too slick (cut and paste?) while the city perspective looks like it was drawn by a kid. "Live your dreams"? Sana hindi in your dreams. Need to do more research about the project. In the mean time, I'll hold my applause.

I said what I said because I am not 100% sure about the accuracy of the rendering and I am holding off applauding the project at this time. I'll need to see more proof that the project deserves the "wow" you all are giving it now. Sana talaga the beautiful towers are not just found in dreamland. Sana nga.

^^ well, i just hope that they won't do a "SoMa" :lol:

you know, maganda sa papel but inferior execution :sleepy:

i'm still excited though, they shouldn't disappoint their clients to gain people's trust and confidence.

They're building their model unit selling center already. The old caterpilar showroom is gone and now replaced by this, you can probably get a good picture from there regarding Nuvo. YOu can get your confirmation from there.

Robinsons is also starting to mobilize for Sonata, I see them taking signs down and putting up boards.

Hopefully it would really look like the rendering...
Maybe they already revised the plan that's why the masterplan doesn't fit the Awesome rendering.

Like Bonifacio Global City and Eastwood, we have to see how it goes...
BGC in their masterplan had a very big Crescent park now it seems its going to chopped into pieces and would only have the the egdes as a park.

Eastwood had an nice plan unitl they decided to add 2 more towers in between...
Can't blame them if there is still demand for it why not sell some more...

Maybe they just really made the building image too opaque in that ad. :shrug:

I hope it looks like the night rendering, and that it will have a full curtain wall.

Let's be realistic, even supposedly high-end condos don't have a full curtain-wall, only a handful of them has. I think it's only feasible in ultra high-end projects.

i am not even sure if Edmonds International is actually the architect, i wonder of maybe they just took a rendering from one of their projects, dont know. it just look too good to be true....

Edmonds Int'l... Oh that's the same outfit that collaborated with Roger Villarosa in the Fairways Tower project of Philtown. Guess this will be their second project in the Philippines then. The rendering looks great. Let's hope the project will look just like the rendering when it comes to fruition. Looking forward to seeing more! :okay: :okay:

http://i32.tinypic.com/29y4k9l.jpg
....nope, I guess it isn't a full glass curtain. Then again, compared to the color rendering, it looks more like an early conceptual design.

http://img375.imageshack.us/img375/5163/nuvocityrm6.jpg
Is that a barcode pattern on the façade or just a scanning distortion? If that's the actual appearance, I think it would make it look more interesting.

Looking at the people behind Nuvocity, I think that they are serious about this rendering. Edmonds International is the architect and they have been in press releases in the local papers here awarding the project to this firm.

hmmm....it is hard to say. it looks similar but i like the colored rendering better than the one they used on their add.

Mods, I think the Aspire @ Nuvo City discussion has already taken a life of its own here in the MM Proposals and U/Cs thread. Can you transfer all these posts to a new thread?

Yeah, love glass.

And you end up paying thousands in electricity monthly for the airconditioning....

and during typhoons, your glass gets hammered by flying debris....

worse, you get into a fight with a burglar and the culprit being stronger, slams you on your glass wall, it shatters into pieces and you fall 30 floors down...ughhh.

Yeah, love glass.


:lol:

wow my thread na to...very much looking forward to this project. very nice design....has anyone here got the price list?

Comment on the floor plan:

Mistake No.1- The end units are too far from the stairs. No fire exit near the end units. So in case of fire breaks out in the core of the building, you get trapped in the corner and you are given a choice to either choke, be eaten by flames or jump thru the "glass" wall down to your death.

Mistake No.2- Sales-wise, the end units should either be 2BR or 3BR because it has extra view corridor for windows, so technically, more linear space for extra bedroom with view. But the floor plan has 4 corner units which are 1BR only. The corner units should have been bigger, but in this case, some corner units are just the same as the middle units.

The site development plan is not appealing. No curves, no landscapes, no nothing. Is this supposed to be a project set for launch or the people behind the project are in a hurry to get reservation that's why they seem to have rushed everthing without thinking it thoroughly.

:lol:

Even if developers get foreign consultants for the architectural design, our laws prohibit these foreigners from signing plans and specifications of Philippine projects without a local architect counterpart.

So what happens is that the foreign architect designs a very western-looking building with ultra-high specifications while the local architect is tasked to implement the details and end up substituting materials because the original design is either impossible to build or way too expensive to procure and install.

So the buyer ends up getting an end product that looks very, very different from the rendering that convinced him to buy in the first place.

Besides, the Developer is new in the business and has no track record whatsoever in high rise construction and yet has the temerity to build several 30+ stories for this Nuvo city project. Uggghhh!

Lesson: don't be fooled by pretty drawings.

Conceptual drawings are almost always the prettiest part of the project renderings. And they always get published early on publicity materials. But the final designs, IMO, are the ones that matter more. But then again, even the final designs are well, not really final, there are always changes until everything gets built and finished.

Noted.

What i mean, actually, is that buyers should be discerning in dissecting what is presented to them. Drawings help us visualize the project but they are not definitive of the capability of the developer to deliver things as advertised.

Buyers must look at what other projects a developer has done previously and see if these have been maintained well, and have appreciated in value over the years. Visiting the previous project of the developer will give buyers a clear background of how capable a certain developer is in keeping his commitment to deliver on time and on quality.

:lol:




I would like to comment on your first comment. I would presume that this corridor and lift lobby would have some sort of fire suppression system. If that is the case, the fire exit stairs are not too far away from the end units. Philippine Fire code PD 1185 stipulates 45m linear run from door to fire stairs for those without sprinkler system, as such i think this one is within the limits set. Secondly, the core is built from Reinforced concrete which has a fire rating higher than that of normal walls (such as hollow block) so i presume if ever the Electrical room (EE room) had a fire breakout this would be contained inside it.

I second your second comment, maybe it would have been a better design move to have corner /end units with bigger cuts say 2br or 3br, that would make the development more enticing and prime. you could have a unit with 270 degree views out...

Just some other items i noticed:
1. the plan of the floor seems very typical and just rotated and mirrored, not much variation except for view orientation
2. the glassy rendering doesnt show much detail clearly especially with regards to the facade; units B,C,D and J,K,L all have aircon ledges jutting out - these dont show in the renderings.
3. there is 1 EE room which can be accessed only thru the fire stairs. does this mean that the fire stair doors will be left open? but fire stairs should be pressurized.
4. there is no garbage chute - where / how to throw trash?
5. the site ddevt plan is empty - doesnt show drop off area, access direction, carpark direction, other site devt elements.
6. no service lift designated - maybe one of the PEs will function as one.

Even if developers get foreign consultants for the architectural design, our laws prohibit these foreigners from signing plans and specifications of Philippine projects without a local architect counterpart.

So what happens is that the foreign architect designs a very western-looking building with ultra-high specifications while the local architect is tasked to implement the details and end up substituting materials because the original design is either impossible to build or way too expensive to procure and install.

Lesson: don't be fooled by pretty drawings.

I think the warning is uncalled for.

Why judge a new developer trying to come up with a great product. You haven't even seen a product of theirs to check if they have been faithful with the renders.

If you have seen the rendering of Infinity, they have not changed the render even once. Im not one to think that they will change any part of their design and make any shortcuts.

That is not part of their character to change mids or just to appoint a foreign designer only for show. Of course they have a local architect to implement the designs just like Pacific Plaza and Essensa. And these two projects are masterpieces towering in BGC which had foreign consultants and local architects.

^^ i think the comment was based on the unfinished brochure that was just scanned here. i am sure they have presented this project well somehow.

lately, i been reading so much sweeping generalizations and conclusions--- mostly without basis. and all in the pretext of "hey, i know it all". tsk. tsk. such negativity.

i don't really mind those negative comments/opinions. i think it could help buyers to think more of their decision.

just read it somewhere in the phil star, mar 25 issue. i was stunned at the project because of the design, and the aura i think. but,reading furthermore throughout the thread, it seems that someone is appealing for a redesign. i dont know. but just looking at the design, it's just so modern and futuristic and urban-looking. four stars for the design. is it near marikina? pasig?

near in pasig malapit sa tiendisitas

someone's appealing for a redesign? ........... some people are just too whatever to realize even the most recognizable modern and futuristic art.

oh no, the design is perfect, please dont change. we just hope that the developer keep the design for the finish product.

No offense to blind people, but i bet blind people can even see how nice the design is..

near in pasig malapit sa tiendisitas

It's actually very much closer to Eastwood City than Tiendesitas or the Frontera Verde complex (where Tiendesitas is located) for that matter.

this would be an amazing development.. it will surely appraise the land value surrounding this libis area...

my only concern now is the heavy traffic being experienced around this commercial stretch, if this nuvo city, complimenting eastwood, will be operational they would need to construct alternate routes to/from these new districts or construct a major flyover/u-turn slot to ease the traffic.

because as of now, traffic going to eastwood is terrible..

how tall will these be? i was at the saloon a while ago getting a haircut--finally got rid of the receding hairline and had a semi-kal--and it got me distracted me from the really cute stylist...based on the rendering on the papers, this project would be the best in the country to date :okay:

awesome, this is great to hear and see,,,thanks for sharing

This is very close to Eastwood City's expansion through their newly acquired lot, the Eastwood Palm District. Access to it can be via Calle Industria, Calle Economia, and Eastwood Palm Tree Avenue.

I noticed that the Shopwise lot is part of Nuvo City.

wow dami na development dito sa libis bukod sa Eastwood city meron na tayo Nuvo city, mdc 100 tapos meron pa project ang ortigas wow mga 5 years from now medyo malawak na ang Libis Skyline di ba guys?

^^ That Ortigas (and Co. Ltd.) project will also have access through Calle Industriya. And at the Amang Rodriguez end of Calle Industria will be another Megaworld township (the current Pag-Asa Steel compound).

Now imagine Calle Industria supporting Nuvo City on the C-5 end, followed by Eastwood City, then the Ortigas Bagumbayan project, and finally the Megaworld Pag-Asa Steel township. Calle Industria would badly need widening by the time these mega-projects start.

hindi nga meron pa project ang megaworld sa area na iyun?saan yung location?ilang hec.?malaki kaya? thanks thomasian

I hope it's glassy like in the video. QC needs a modern iconic structure.

who is appealing for a redesign?

they're constructing the model units (i think) sa site. yung old warehouse ang structure na gamit nila, they're just "remodeling" it. saw it the other day.

Embrace a sustainable modern lifestyle, and live the dream of tomorrow today.



Come to Nuvo.City a masterpiece of modern living designed from the inside out ensuring optimum arrangement of living and business spaces in individually scaled and proportioned buildings together creating a beautiful family of forms.



Nuvo.City is an exclusive vertical city in the sky, masterplanned by Edmonds International. It is comprised of several residential and commercial towers seated on a vibrant lifestyle retail center and interconnected with a magnificent sustainable landscape environment complete with all the amenities to live a stress-free existence, a world of convenience and a smart and fashionable lifestyle.



And with this, ASPIRE, its first residential tower will soon rise. Towering at 48 storeys, this magnificent edifice will be sight to behold with balcony units overlooking the entire Nuvo.City, the Antipolo Hills and the citylights of Quezon City.



The ASPIRE is …

- within the proximity of the most prime learning institutions (Poveda, La Salle Greenhills and Xavier School) and the prestigious universities (University of the Philippines, Ateneo De Manila University, Miriam College, University of Asia and the Pacific and the Center for Culinary Arts.

- 10 minutes away form the Ortigas Business District and 20 minutes away for the Makati Business District

- Short drive away from top corporations like Asian Development Bank, Meralco, San Miguel Corporation and IBM.

- Stone’s throw away from shopping areas like Tiendesitas, SM Megamall, Robinsons and EDSA Shangri-La

- Accessible to the most prominent hospital Medical City

- adjacent to exclusive subdivisions like Valle Verde (I-VI), Acropolis and Green Meadows



And to top it off, your new home comes equipped with WI_FI services and amenities that include a Swimming Pool and a Tennis Court.



All these perks with only Php 9,000++ a month. Choose from a wide array of Studio units (34sqm), Studio Units with Balcony (38sqm), 1 Bedroom Units with Balcony (54 sqm), 1 Bedroom Corner Units with Balcony (54sqm) and 2 Bedroom Units with Balcony (85 sqm). If you wish, we can also combine any of these units if you require a bigger space.

that is super hot!

This project is quite elegant. Who is the local architect for this?

Read from the papers.......Recio + Casas, I believe.

this will look very elegant at night!

this is so exciting. my neighborhood will surrounded by all these new developments in Libis (is it Quezon City) to Ortigas (is it Mandaluyong City or Pasig City). pasensya na matagal na akong hindi nag aral ng mga mapa.

Simply irresistible! :)

awesome...another great project to look forward to. Very elegant, does this mean the offices are premium A?

but man, this would make C-5 even more jammed up with traffic.

lol...the music in the youtube video from 6:14 on, sounds like LOTR music.

nice buildings! who created this rendering?

At P70,000/sqm, this is a no-brainer for all Pasig/QC condo-hunters.

Add to that the fact that its closest neighbor (L)eastwood is now close to P90,000/sqm. Yeah, like I'd spend that kind of money to be jumping distance from the neighboring buildings :p

nice buildings! who created this rendering?

Renderings were done by the Masterplanner, Edmunds International

The buildings are nicely designed for me (depends on the actual curtain wall detail though), but the masterplan could have been more imaginative IMO

love it! can not wait to see other rendeings,

I've read somewhere that this dev't is supposed to be a car-free zone, where roads will be built underground. Can anyone confirm this?

I was there. The Showroom (they call it the Nuvo.City Lifestyle Center) is really nice. They call it the largest showroom in the Philippines and I believe it really is. It could double as an events hall!

Heard they sold a whole bunch that night. They had this bell which kept on ringing. I found out later on that it signals a closed sale.

is there a Nuvo agent lurking here? if so, please send me a PM...

just text the # from the invites that i posted. she's an agent.

okay.. thanks man!

no problemo!

Alin ba sa kanila ang ASPIRE? Do they have the same height and floor count?

Kawawa naman yung mga future unit owners sa middle towers, walang view.

Ang layo nito!

i got some information on this project and it mentioned aspire to be 48 floors. it is on a powerpoint presentation, i would try to upload images.

Comparing Libis, QC (Eastwood and Nuvo city) and future QC-CBD areas, which one has better appreciation and rental? Any thoughts?

^^ i bet my money with QC-CBD areas, its cheap to buy there now too. so its a better catch for a long-term real estate investment. check out foreclosed properties info in phil. banks webbies.

Nice! It has a tennis court:banana:

now i am curious where is the location for the AC?

The website has been updated

www.nuvo-city.ph

wow this looks great. how many units does aspire have?

I just realized that the shape and layout of the building is almost identical to Rockwell's Manansala.

and also with 5th Ave Place and Avida New Manila

siguro lalangawin to at di matutuloy

siguro lalangawin to at di matutuloy

Haha sounds like you have a vested interest in Eastwood perhaps? :tiasd:

siguro lalangawin to at di matutuloy

pessimistic? hehehe. this is a great project IMO. and based on the renderings, this kicks the hell out of eastwood's "cityland-ish" ass.

The future looks good in Nuvo City
LIFE & STYLE By Millet M. Mananquil
Saturday, May 24, 2008

A new city is rising in Quezon City and it looks like a glimpse of the future. Imagine a place where you can live, work and enjoy a stress-free existence. Where life’s necessities are within reach. Where energy efficiency, water conservation and natural light diffusion are achieved in a beautiful setting.

It is called Nuvo City, which is situated on a 4.2-hectare prime property on the corner of Industria St. and C-5 in Libis Quezon City, where five elegant residential towers and three sleek commercial towers rise above a lifestyle retail center. This city of the future is a joint venture of premier developer Nuvoland Philippines Inc. and landowner Libra Agro Industrial Corp.

Residents enjoy a healthy and fun lifestyle starting from the landscaped ground level to the leisure facilities for sports such as swimming, tennis, badminton, and basketball plus workout gyms.

Soaring up to 45 levels, the residential towers demonstrate 21st century architectural drama. “The sculpting of space by natural light has been a top priority,” says Nuvoland Philippines Inc. president Kevin Belmonte. “Edmonds International Ltd. designed this masterpiece of modern living where the use of glass and a screen panel pattern layered with rapid vents allow natural air to penetrate for improved ventilation and comfort.”

The best thing about Nuvo City, says Belmonte, is the price. A 34-square-meter studio costs only from 2.3 plus million pesos. A 54-square-meter one-bedroom unit is only from 3.6 plus million pesos, and an 85-square-meter two-bedroom unit is only 6.7 plus million pesos payable, interest-free, within four years.

“In the mid-luxury market, rarely do you find a masterplanned development like Nuvo City that takes into consideration traffic circulation, which in this case is underground, as well as pedestrian-oriented open spaces, staggered building layouts to promote air circulation, light diffusion, and spaciousness,” explains Rally Martinez, Nuvoland executive director.

“We are creating a vertical city in the sky which integrates all the technology for a 21st century lifestyle,” Martinez adds.“It is a live-work-play environment all in one area, created for a market with a global sense of style.”

For Nuvo City’s model units, Martinez tapped three top interior design/architecture experts to show how each unit can be maximized, merging style with function.

Pixie Olivares:A Parisian Flair

Pixie Olivares is one designer who certainly understands condo living, having experienced it in Paris where she lived for six years as an interior design student at Ecole Superieure des Arts Graphiques et d’Architecture Interieure.

“One of my temporary apartments was a 12-square-meter studio, would you believe, and it was really a tight space,” Olivares laughs. So it was truly a pleasure for her to design a 34-square-meter studio at Nuvo City. And the result is beautiful.

“The challenge was to maximize the space without making it look cramped. So I kept the area whole, blurring divisions between the necessary functions of sleeping/entertaining/dining and cleansing/cooking to create an open and more expansive space.I used glass from floor to ceiling to enclose the bathroom. For privacy, the panels are frosted up to two meters.Transparency is also reiterated in the furniture: the dining table, side tables and shelves are crystal or glass. The dining chairs are made of mesh.”

The beauteous Olivares explains: “I wanted a sofa that didn’t have to open up into a bed to minimize movement.Instead, I used a wide sofa that is actually a full-sized bed. Put on some sheets and you’re ready to sleep.”

Her studio certainly gives a relaxed modern feel.“I do like a certain linearity in my work without being too rigid.I also like adding a splash of color to a basic neutral palette.”

Ed Calma: A New Yorker’s Sensibility

“ I lived in New York City for 12 years and I know the importance of having a flexible space that can be easily transformed to serve whatever use,” says Ed Calma, the Columbia University and Pratt-educated designer known for his modern works for the country’s cosmopolitan set. His latest design, La Salle College of Saint Benilde, is an inspiring masterpiece unparalleled in the local academe.

For a two-bedroom unit at Nuvo City, Calma designed the living/dining area to be used as “a space for recreation, dining, working, etcetera. So I used a series of fixed horizontal shelving which functions not only as a display system but also as a buffet table and a work table.The furniture and accessories around it are merely temporary and can be moved around and changed by the user.” Very ingenious.

Calma explains, “For further flexibility, I designed the smaller bedroom so it can be used as an extra bedroom or home office, by simply taking out the bed and replacing it with a consultation chair.”

When asked to define his design style, Calma answers: “I hope that I would never be labelled to have a specific ‘style’. I try to explore new ideas about form and space, and I try to express the idea clearly in the way parts of a system fit or relate together. If you get into a style, it usually means the end of exploration, experimentation and creativity.” Well said by a designer who is managing partner of the very dynamic firm headed by his father, the venerable Lor Calma.

J. Anton Mendoza: A Global Vision

Architect J Anton Mendoza is well-loved by the A-listers for the beautiful, modern homes he creates for them.When he designed a one-bedroom unit for Nuvo City, he imagined the user to be a progressive-minded, well-traveled person.

“To start with, I did the kitchen in black, which is not really for everybody.” But the result is simply sleek and fabulous.

One of the University of Santo Tomas College of Architecture’s proudly homegrown and eminent alumni, Mendoza has that global vision so evident in his works. “My biggest influences are the Bauhaus movement and great mid- century modern architects like Richard Neutra and Mies Van Der Rohe. The model unit at Nuvo City is inspired by the mid-century modernists,” Mendoza explains.

For furniture pieces, Mendoza chose a vertigo lamp by Patricia Urquiola, a dining set by Antonio Citterio, and an accent chair by Jeffrey Barnett.

The model unit is very Mendoza, just as sophisticated as his designs for restos like Sala Bistro and People’s Palace, and the lobbies of Serendra Two.

Three designs by the country’s best for a futuristic city designed by a world-class architectural firm? The future looks good.

^^ Wow sounds very nice designer units! Hopefully we can get pics of the model units posted here in the thread in time. :) :) :)

All it says is that the masterplanner is Edmonds International, probably they're the architects as well.

the masterplanner is edmonds international and the the architect for the design concept is archt. meloy casas.

Ito yung old site ng Monark. Malapit sa Honda Cars Pasig.

Ang problema dito, kung galing ka ng Katipunan o SM Marikina(Marcos Hi-way), ay mag-you-U-turn ka pa dun malapit sa Dampa C5.
Pero kung galing naman ng Pasig, mapa-C5 o Manggahan(daanan ng jeep byaheng Pasig Marikina) --walang problema.
Sana naman hwag maapektuhan ang kabuhayan ng mga bumibyaheng tricycle sa lugar na yan ng Calle Industriya.




i don't really mind those negative comments/opinions. i think it could help buyers to think more of their decision.

just read it somewhere in the phil star, mar 25 issue. ... is it near marikina? pasig?

near in pasig malapit sa tiendisitas

It's actually very much closer to Eastwood City than Tiendesitas or the Frontera Verde complex (where Tiendesitas is located) for that matter.

Yeah tama mas closer sya sa Eastwood city sinagot ko lang yun tanong kung malapit ba daw to sa pasig kaya sinabi ko malapit sa tiendisitas at sakop ito ng Pasig

ililipat ba ang shopwise or aalis na talaga sila sa libis area.?

shopwise is going to be integrated into the nuvo city

Nuvocity: Building a new city life & lifestyle center
CITY SENSE (http://www.philstar.com/index.php?Modern%20Living&p=49&type=2&sec=46&aid=2008081531)

By Paulo Alcazaren
Saturday, August 16, 2008

City life should always be exciting and new. Filipinos are becoming highly urbanized citizens with a discerning taste and an evolving appreciation of architecture and design that target these two goals. The good news is that developers are catering to this emergent design-driven urban lifestyle. A few have located their new developments close to major transport arteries with access to amenities.

One of the prime areas of growth is the C-5 corridor in Quezon City. Surveys have shown that this corner of the metropolis has good air quality. The area around the old Libis district has also the advantage of easy access to many schools, malls and leisure opportunities.

Rising at the cusp of C-5 (Rodriguez Avenue) and Santolan Road is a new 4.2-hectare complex called Nuvocity. It is the flagship project of Nuvoland Philippines, which is chaired by Menardo Jimenez. Kevin Belmonte is president and the tireless Rally Martinez is executive director. Their joint-venture partner in this ambitious scheme is the Banson family’s Libara Agro-Industrial Development Corporation.

Nuvocity is envisioned to become the metropolis’s new landmark district. The development company put together a high-powered consultant team to design this new city quarter based on the goal of providing premium amenities, high-rise living that is “green” and sustainable at the same time.

The renowned Filipino architects Recio+Casas worked with Edmunds International to create a cluster of eight slab towers resting on a series of elevated podiums. The first 45-story tower, called “Aspire,” has already been launched and model units are now on view at the ultra-modernist Lifestyle Center on C-5 itself.

The Nuvocity Lifestyle Center contains the model units for the Aspire Tower and will also eventually showcase the model units for the others to be erected. The center provides a cool coffee lounge and lushly landscaped gardens to highlight the eco-friendly theme of the complex. The center also accommodates the developer’s office spaces as well as a large event space that is ideal for launches, parties and other celebrations.

The model units are on the second floor, reached by a futuristic ramp that connects the lobby with an upper floor “living room,” as well as the scale model display area for the development.

For Nuvocity, Rally Martinez commissioned three of the country’s top interior design and architectural experts to show how the residential units could merge style with modernity and efficiency.

The trio includes former Paris-based designer Pixie Olivares. She is a graduate of the Ecole Superieure des Arts Graphiques et d’Architecture Interieure and practiced in the City of Lights for six years. She designed a 34-square-meter studio unit that maximizes space without compromising style.

Next is former New York-based Ed Calma, who designed the two-bedroom model unit as a testimony to stylized flexibility using the simplest but most elegant materials. Finally, there is the unit designed by J. Anton Mendoza. The UST alumnus designed a one-bedroom flat inspired by his idols, modernist architects Richard Neutra and Mies van der Rohe.

Prices for units at Aspire are amazingly affordable. The cost for a studio starts at around P2.3 million; a one-bedroom unit is from P3.6 million; the 85-sqm. two-bedroom unit is around P6.7 million, which is payable, interest-free, in four years.

Nuvocity is a mixed-use commercial and residential development. It is a nuanced structural form that does not forget the need for open green spaces, which are raised above on the podium level. The towers themselves are tall, rectangular affairs with modernist facades that pay homage to Le Corbusier, the famous 20th-century architect.

This 21st-century development is eco-friendly. The towers are oriented east-west to keep them from the sun and windows are oriented toward the cool north or south.

The development follows the LEEDS protocols for green building from the United States, which include recycling captured rain water for irrigation, and the management and recycling of solid waste. It also uses reflective roofs, native plants in the landscape design and has vegetated roof gardens. Furthermore it has consolidated lighting strategies. This complex is probably the greenest that the city has seen in its category.

The greenness extends to a healthy lifestyle that is made available to residents. Nuvocity residents will be provided with swimming pools, tennis, badminton, and basketball courts and spacious gyms.

Nuvocity promises to bring a new level of urban life few developments currently offer. The development’s first offering, Aspire, sets the standard for its future towers. The model units at its Lifestyle Center also present a promising picture of what awaits those who choose to live in this new city. Ultimately it is the development’s prime location in an emergent district, its accessibility, and a well-chosen set of amenities that will give that newness and excitement all urbanites look for.

They have a full page ad in Philippine Star today, 1/15, it says January 16, 2009 marks a milestone event as Nuvoland Philippines breaks ground - start of construction of Aspire Tower - Nuvo City. Good!

^^ ganda ng Aspire Tower. tall and very glassy ;) i counted the floors and i counted 52 :lol: naduling lang ata ako :D

the latest rendering of Aspire is consistent with the modern and classy masterplan of Nuvo City.

:banana:

Great news! I love this development out of the "mini CBDs", well maybe it's tied with Century City. :D

here it is

wow now that's impressive!

P20-billion Nuvocity breaks ground: Green inner city development unveiled (http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?articleId=435767&publicationSubCategoryId=76)
Updated January 30, 2009 12:00 AM
Philstar.com (http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?articleId=435767&publicationSubCategoryId=76)

Nuvoland Philippines Inc. along with its joint venture partner Libra Agro Industrial Corp., recently broke ground at Nuvocity, a mixed use vertical community located on C5 corner Industria Street Bagumbayan, Quezon City. Nuvocity, which was masterplanned by world-renowned planners, Edmonds International, has a total area of 4.2 hectares and a project cost of P20 billion over a 10 year period. Construction will be initially focused on the first residential tower, aspire@nuvocit, which is a 49-storey building designed by Architect Meloy Casas of Casas+Architects.

Leading the ground breaking ceremony was QC Mayor Sonny Belmonte, who lauded the Nuvoland for its vision in nuvocity as a 21st century development in the city. Quezon City is currently the largest city in the Philippines, in terms or area and population, and also the richest in terms of city revenues. Mayor Belmonte added, “gaganda ba ang nuvocity if it was not part of Quezon City”. He challenged the Nuvoland board of directors led by its chairman Menardo Jimenez, president Kevin Belmonte and executive director Rally Martinez. ...”grow with us and we will grow with you.”

Nuvocity is envisioned to be the first “Green” mixed use inner city development in the Philippines. Edmonds International has integrated in its design not only “green building”, such as natural lighting and ventilation within the units and the common areas , but also a “green environment”, such that pedestrian and vehicular circulation are separated eliminating conflict in the passageways and the alignment of buildings to maximize the sun’s penetration into the developed areas. The ground level will only allow for pedestrian traffic, while the vehicular traffic is tucked in the basement levels, minimizing noise, smoke pollution and traffic congestion. This will allow resident and office occupiers of nuvocity full benefit to the large open spaces, pocket parks and tree lined carriageways at the ground level. Nuvocity is comprised of eight towers, five of which are residential, while the remaining three are office towers with a commercial podium to act as a village center for the residents and office workers.

Meanwhile, the almost sold out residential tower of aspire@nuvocity, will sit on a podium, whose top amenity deck is interconnected with the other seven towers in nuvocity, creating a fifth façade for the residents of the tower. The fifth façade is the overlay of the podium decks of all eight towers in nuvocity, that will house a wide range of recreational facilities from tennis courts, basketball courts, swimming pools and gyms allowing for greater interaction between residents of each building.

Nuvoland president Kevin Belmonte mentioned that nuvocity was envisioned to meet the emerging needs to of global Filipinos for a residential enclave whose primary feature is exclusivity and privacy coupled by high accessibility and convenience. All these, key success factors result in a robust community and will be found in nuvo.city.

Jimenez added that the early start of construction of aspire@nuvocity is testament to the company’s resolve to deliver on its promises to its client regardless of circumstance and the strong belief that the country’s economy shall continue to weather the ongoing external financial crisis. With crisis comes opportunity, and for the local and international buyers that are still interested in purchasing a residential condominium, there will be a flight to quality, and Nuvoland as a developer and aspire@nuvocity as a home, will definitely be a top choice.

^^ Aspire is reported to be 49 stories and based on the rendering, it seems that the 49 stories will be on top of a podium. That's a tall structure there and looks to be clad with glass as well. With 7 other towers of similar height, Nuvo City will be QC's answer to Makati's Gramercy and Picar place. It will be a more upscale Eastwood area because of its posh design.

In terms of height, will this be the tallest tower in the whole of QC? Will this overtake GA sky suites?

Wow, indeed! Classy glassy. :lol:

Hope it's actually clad in glass, instead of just dressing up for the rendering and then replacing the nice glass cladding when completed.

I wonder what happened to the vertical strips in the cladding of the original render? I liked that effect, made it look less uniform.

Does anyone know how many units aspire has? :)

^^ Is there construction activity already in the area?

to richard24 - the shopwise property is for lease so eventually the shopwise wil be removed
to ruralvillage - thanks for that good news it's really is a master plan and eco friendly community
to grossfloorarea - it's approximately 800 units
to venntro - yes there is, excavation on going already by ipm construction...
to venntro - aspire is a 49 story that includes the podium and basement, i guess not because ga sky suites is located in a much higher area.
the target completion of the first tower is late quarter 2011 turnover would start around 2nd quarter of 2012.=)

I'm directly connected with nuvoland phils. inc feel free to post your comment and i will be actively respond, and will keep you posted

hi daryl, for SSC's purpose,
can you find out for all of us
the structural height of this
project? :cheers:

For those who may be interested to learn more about NuvoCity as well as the Aspire project, they will be having an open night next Thursday at their showroom in E.Rodriguez. Got invited and was told it's free drinks, food and entertainment for just showing up. Nyoy Volante will be performing daw. No strings attached - don't have to buy anything daw, they're primarily promoting the project so there will be no pressure tactics! Anyway hope Nuvo City sells well. Looks like it's a pretty good project. :)

^^ Oops that's right, it's indeed Luke Mijares performing for NuvoCity. Nyoy Volante performed for BeauFort's open night nga pala. Thanks for clearing things up Daryl! :) :) :)

As I have ask form our project manager more or less 3.2mx50= 160
we have high floor to ceiling compare to other projects :rock:

daryl chan
nuvo.city

then add up the slab thickness, the additional height on the lobby, the top portion of the building as well. So if his estimate is 3.2 x 50, then maybe we're looking at a more or less 180m high building. Now if the 50 storeys (or 49) is on top of a podium (which was not counted right?) then guys here comes another 200m building.

this might overshadow eastwood city! and that would be both in height and hopefully, in aesthetics :)

ah...aesthetics seems to be a foreign word for MW. well, as far as Eastwood city is concerned.

49storey already includes everything, podium level are from 1st to 4th it's the parking areas, on the 5th level is the amenities.
And from 6th floor to the penthouse is which is on the 48th.


DARYL@NUVO

thanks! but do you
know what's the
equivalent of that
in meters or feet?

Nuvoland project complete in licenses, permits
Updated March 18, 2009 12:00 AM

MANILA, Philippines - The executive vice president and chief operating officer of Nuvoland Philippines, Ramon Bienvenida, took exception to a TV Patrol report and certain entities, alleging that the Aspire at Nuvocity condominium project of the corporation was not authorized to sell; didn’t have the requisite License to Sell issued by the Housing Land Use and Regulatory Board; and that it had not begun construction.

He stated that, “Nuvoland has a license to sell issued by HLURB allowing it to sell which was published in major dailies as early as August 29, 2008. In fact, Nuvoland as a responsible developer commenced construction for Aspire at Nuvocity, the project located at Bagumbayan, Quezon City, last January 16, 2009, well ahead of the original schedule of June 2009, as approved by HLURB.” Bienvenida said, “We encourage all real estate buyers to formally raise their concerns to the HLURB, so that it can be processed and decided upon based on existing laws. And regardless of the outcome, Nuvoland will always abide with the HLURB decision, as a good corporate citizen.”

He added that, “Unfortunately, clients take their complaints to media thru trial by publicity which is counterproductive and leads to further confusion and conflict between buyer and developer. In most cases, parties do not have a fair understanding of applicable laws for real estate purchases.”

In addition, Bienvenida lamented that the TV Patrol crew came to their office and were shown all the licenses and ongoing construction, yet their side was not presented during the airing of the story.

I saw it in the news....I agree...it was a bias reporting by ABS TV Patrol :bash:...wondering who owns Nuvo City, GMA's Jimenez?

It's obviously a demolition job by the Lopez group.

Lopez' ABS vs Jimenez' GMA
Lopez' The Grove vs Nuvo City

They must be resorting to these tactics now because the Grove isn't selling as well as Aspire

^^ So it's the network war spilling over the real estate sector. :ohno:

ok

^^ Looks like Eastwood and Nuvo City will be having another great looking neighboring development pretty soon with Circulo Verde. This area will look good when these projects (NuvoCity and Circulo Verde) come to fruition. I just hope they will address the potential traffic mess expected once these projects come on line. All they have to do is look at Eastwood now, what more later down the line. Ang traffic!


Circulo Verde: Your own living space
PhilStar
http://thefilipino.com/frames/philstar.htm

Ortigas & Co. recently unveiled Circulo Verde, its latest innovative residential development, which offers its residents the living space they deserve.

Located in a 12-hectare property along Calle Industria in Bagumbayan, Quezon City, Circulo Verde will have 15 residential buildings of staggered heights that gives residents unparalleled sightlines of the nearby Sierra Madre mountains and the Metro Manila skyline. As part of the global effort to go green, the development retains natural features that are unique to the property, as well as maximizing the potential of the Marikina River, which surrounds the site.

Ortigas & Company chief operating officer Rex Drilon II says Circulo Verde does not merely provide Filipino families with the homes they need, but also the opportunity to embrace an alternative lifestyle that is sensitive to the environment.

“Our objective is not just to sell condominium units. That’s not what this is all about. Ortigas has been known for the last three generations to provide quality communities,” says Drilon. “We are here to offer the Filipinos on alternative lifestyle. We believe in making projects that resonate with the aspirations of Filipinos. A home is important for many Filipinos. This is an aspiration of Filipinos in all classes, and it would be sad if we came up with a mediocre development.”

Circulo Verde is ideal for a variety of homeowners, from startup families, to upwardly mobile professionals and empty nesters, since it offers a variety of layouts. Its location places residents in a quiet part of the metropolis yet still within reach of major commercial and business establishments and premiere educational institutions in the country. With access to EDSA, Ortigas Ave., C-5, Katipunan, and Marcos Highway, busy executives are just minutes away from the Makati, Ortigas and Quezon City business districts. Major commercial establishments as well as schools and colleges like UP Diliman, Ateneo and La Salle Greenhills are just a few kilometers away.

The international design firm RTKL has developed a master plan that maximizes the area’s natural features to strike a balance between nature and the demands of fast-paced living in the city. The Marikina River provides the perfect frame for this ecologically sensitive master plan.

Greg Yager, principal architect of RTKL, says that Circulo Verde offers a high-quality environmental where people can live, work and play.

“I think Circulo Verde gives us the opportunity to be sustainable,” Yager explained in a project briefing last year. “Being citizens of a world where the climate is changing, we still want to get the quality of life, we still want to enjoy the place we live in, and we still want the best communities for our children. Our aim at Circulo Verde is to create a unique place. You can walk in the garden and alongside the Marikina River, enjoying the fresh air on your face. Then just around the corner, you can walk into the shops, restaurants, gyms and health clubs. You can be in the midst of a flurry of activities without leaving your neighborhood.

Ortigas & Company general manager for real estate, Cathy Casares-Ko, says that the project site is unique. Its location and topography allow the planners to come up with a product that maximizes the views for all the towers. There is a play on the heights of the residential buildings that provide not just unimpaired views, but also brings in adequate ventilation and natural lighting to all units.

^^ I hope that when the big earthquake hits, the land and more importantly these buildings built on top of it will not crumble under liquiefaction. Really curious to know as to where the Marikinia faultline lies in respect to Eastwood, NuvoCity, and Circulo Verde? Balita ko kasi it's very near ...

Sir Daryl, thanks for the info you gave regarding the approximate height of the building. But if you have the chance to actually check the plans or details, maybe it is possible to get the accurate height so we can properly provide this nice project a place in the list of buildings with accurate measurements.

^^ Here's that article about the Big One which made me really curious to know as to where the Marikina faultline lies in respect to Eastwood, NuvoCity, and Circulo Verde? Balita ko kasi it's very near and like any other prospective investor, you'd like to know how they are addressing this if such is indeed the case... Preparedness is the key and what the article is saying we are not so what's the developer doing to mitigate this? Nobody really knows when the big one will hit but I think the closer you are to the fault-line it becomes more relevant to address the problem and safety concerns as this is where in all likelihood the most damage will be once it strikes and that's exactly why it would be good to know what kind of earthquake/seismic safety precautions the developers have planned and will be taking not just for the structure of the building itself but the surrounding infra as well. This will give prospective buyers/investors peace of mind otherwise clients will in all likelihood go and look at other projects instead that will be less risky in their eyes since we're talking millions of peso here for these units.


‘Big One’ Is Possible But Metro Is Unprepared
BY AUBREY STA. CRUZ MAKILAN

Here’s something that the country’s national leaders should be bothered about: If a major earthquake were to hit Metro Manila today, the devastation would be so big even disaster response authorities cannot simply cope with it. And it even looks like disaster preparedness occupies a low priority among officials down to the municipal level.

Recent reports gathered by Bulatlat show that up to 35,000 residents of Metro Manila would die and up to three million others would need to be evacuated. In addition, some 175,000 buildings would be damaged. The pressure of collapsed buildings and the inability to rescue those who would be trapped inside would cause most of the deaths.


Distribution of active faults and trenches in the Philippines

With its current population of 10 million, Metropolitan Manila, which is composed of 13 cities and four municipalities, is densely populated with several clusters and districts having high-rise buildings close to each other. Investigations done by various disaster units and fire departments a few years ago found many buildings did not comply with construction standards and that these are prone not only to fires but also to damage by earthquakes of any scale.

One of the reports gathered by Bulatlat, the Metropolitan Manila Earthquake Impact Reduction Study (MMEIRS), cites “many research studies (indicating) that active phases of the (West) Valley Faults (formerly the Marikina Valley Faults) are approaching and that the estimated magnitude will be around 7 or more.” But MMEIRS also raised the possible intensity from 7 to even 9, which could be “devastating.”

The study projected the “big earthquake” to be “unlike any tragedy seen or imagined in Metro Manila.”

Asked for comment, however, a scientist-environmentalist theorized that such studies could be pressing the panic button now just to allow certain insurance companies to profit from a sudden surge of building insurance orders and the like.


Largest impact

MMEIRS, a Japan-funded study that was begun in August 2002, identified the West Valley Fault, which lies just northeast of Manila, as “the fault expected to cause the largest impact in the metropolis.” The West Valley Fault traverses Marikina town, Pasig going to Muntinlupa up to the south.

The Fault, other studies showed, caused at least two major earthquakes within the last 1,400 years. No earthquake is known to have taken place along the West Valley Fault after the 16th century. But based on the estimated return period of less than 500 years, the Fault is due to exhibit dangers this century – or even within the next few years, if the estimates of an official of the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) are valid.

Dr. Norman Tungol of Phivolcs’ Geology, Geophysics, Research and Development Division (GGRDD) estimated the Fault’s movement of recurrence at 200-400 years and based on this, he told Bulatlat, it is due for another movement.

Tungol said however that since studies have a big margin of error, this projection “could be within the next few years, (or) few tens of years.” He also said that even if there is no need for the people to panic because there is no timetable yet, “dapat mag-prepare because it’s inevitable.”

He confirmed that an earthquake with intensity 8 or 9 could be expected in the Valley Fault with a possible magnitude of 7.2 because of the lengthy fault.

Another Phivolcs scientist, Dr. Elena Bautista, noted however that the MMEIRS study found no pattern for the frequency of earthquakes occurring in the West Valley Fault.

A noted engineer, Dr. Arthur Saldivar-Sali, saw MMEIRS’ assertion that “active phases of the Valley Faults are approaching” as vague. He noted that the study, which he admits he has never seen, was apparently based on “deterministic analysis” which focuses on the characteristics of the movement of a fault and can be a prejudgment based on studies done or merely on gut feel that has no scientific basis at all.

Saldivar-Sali is a member of the Council of Engineering Consultants of the Philippines (Cecophil), a group of corporations and companies doing civil engineering designs and foundations.


Probability theory

Saldivar-Sali, a former UP professor who is also now with the Geo-Technica Consultancy Group, told Bulatlat that he tends to believe in the “probability analysis” of former Phivolcs Director Raymundo Punongbayan. Shortly after the Mt. Pinatubo eruption in 1991, Punongbayan told of a higher probability of a major earthquake on the Valley Fault based on its rare movements. Since lesser energy is released in the friction of rocks, more energy is stored, like a rubber band, preparing for a big snap.

The higher the percentage of the probability of an earthquake, the dangerous it would be, Saldivar-Sali said.

Punongbayan also cited the danger of building anything five kms near the fault. The director’s warning caused alarm among the business community and Marikina local officials asked that the fault be renamed “West Valley Fault” instead.

In layman’s terms, a magnitude of 7.2 can be compared to a bomb explosion, Saldivar-Sali said. In exponential form of 10, a magnitude of 1 is equivalent to one ton (1 x 100), magnitude 2 to 10 tons (2 x 101), 3 to 300 tons (3 x 102), and so on. A 7.2 magnitude if multiplied to 106 is equivalent to 7.2 million tons of bomb explosion.

MMEIRS actually aimed to design a master plan for earthquake impact reduction in Metro Manila leading to the holding of training seminars on earthquake preparedness. Funded by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA-Philippines), the study was supported by the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA), the Department of Science and Technology (DoST), Phivolcs and JICA contractors Pacific Consultants International, Oyo Corporation, and Pasco Corporation.

Scientists from Phivolcs, the University of the Philippines as well as from Japan participated in the study. Due for completion last March, the report is being finalized in Japan, according to Cora Macasieb, Special Operations Officer II and acting division chief of the Directorate for Special Operations of the Metropolitan Manila Disaster Coordinating Council (MMDCC).

Separate studies on earthquake are also being done in cooperation with China, Japan and the United Nations Development Program (UNDP).

Among others, three areas were tested under the MMEIRS study: Mataas na Lupa in Malate, Manila; Ugong, Pasig; and Cupang, Marikina. Studied were Metro Manila’s three fault lines, namely, the West Valley Fault, the Manila Trench and Manila Bay.

Analyzed were the areas’ earthquake history, length of the fault and vulnerability to earthquake. Damage scenarios and estimates of costs of destruction were also done.


Impact

The seismic intensity generated by the West Valley Fault earthquake and the damage felt in an area varied from place to place. The intensity may range from 7 in Quezon City, almost 8 and 9 alongside Marikina River and Manila Bay, and 8 at west of Metropolitan Manila and 7 at other areas. Based on the Phivolcs Earthquake Intensity Scale (PEIS), intensity 7 is “destructive,” while 8 and 9 are “very destructive” and “devastating,” respectively.

Aside from the estimated death toll, the West Valley Fault earthquake would cause injuries to 118,200 persons, the study reveals. MMDC’s Macasieb said that the death toll would rise if the earthquake occurs during office hours where most of the people are working inside buildings including those who would come from the province to process various papers in the metropolis.

The number of buildings expected to be destroyed by the Manila Trench earthquake would reach about 5,000 while 16,000 for the Manila Bay fault. The West Valley Fault earthquake will cause the collapse of buildings in northeastern Quezon City, western Marikina, eastern Pasig, Muntinlupa-Laguna Bay and Mandaluyong-Makati. Evacuation would be difficult in the metropolis’ fringes particularly in the north, Taguig and Las Piñas, the MMEIRS study also found.

Residential buildings around the Malacañang in Manila and the House of Representatives in Quezon City would be severely damaged. Other infrastructures such as bridges and power posts will also be destroyed.

The danger of spreading fire to the Malacañang presidential office is not ruled. Liquefaction around the House area might take place. Even the MMDA building would be severely damaged, the study adds.

Collapses would lead to electricity short circuit, petroleum and LPG leakages from storage tanks, among others, that would cause fire. Areas highly vulnerable to fire would be Valenzuela, Caloocan, and south of Quezon City west intersection.

Damages to the Angat reservoir and water purification plant would likely happen, causing a long-term stoppage in water supply. Public transportation facilities such as airport runways would be closed, leaving only helicopters available for operations. Ports in the North and South harbors would be damaged and tilted by liquefaction, making these inaccessible for loading and unloading. Damages would likely be expected on roads and bridges.

Including victims of fires and liquefaction caused by the earthquake, the study estimates the number of refugees or evacuees at three million. The figure would include 1.3 million persons who would be uprooted from their homes if the aftershock would last about seven days.

After liquefaction, there would be a possible regional separation. The western part of Metro Manila would be isolated from other parts of the metropolis. The same thing would happen to the northern and southern parts due to building collapse especially in the area intersecting Makati and Mandaluyong. Meanwhile, all road networks running east-west that are on the fault would be broken.

Government study foresaw flooding – Palafox
Business Mirror
Written by Dennis D. Estopace / Reporter
Monday, 28 September 2009
http://www.businessmirror.com.ph/home/top-news/16610-government-study-foresaw-floodpalafox.html

THE government was warned 32 years ago that ceding control of urban development may have adverse consequences, such as the devastation experienced by the metropolis on Saturday.

“Some are saying it’s [the flooding of key Metropolitan Manila areas] an act of God. It’s not. It’s neglect on the part of the government,” architect Felino Palafox Jr. told the BusinessMirror on Monday as casualties of Typhoon Ondoy grew to more than a hundred dead and thousands of people displaced.

In the document sent by Palafox, the Metro Manila Transport, Land Use and Development Planning Project (Mmetroplan) already cited the Marikina Valley as among the areas deemed “unsuitable for development.”

The area that includes the city of Marikina were among those that sustained the most damage, according to news reports. In one hard-hit site alone, Provident Village, TV reports said 58 bodies had already been recovered, presumably people who never had time to leave their homes as floodwaters rose too quickly.

“Development should be restricted by the application of controls in three major areas—in the Marikina Valley, the western shores of Laguna de Bay, and the Manila Bay coastal area to the north of Manila,” said the report submitted in July 1977 to then-Public Works and Highways chief Alfredo Juinio.

“We’ve told government all along [that] this would happen because of the flooding [in] the same month in 1970,” Palafox said.

He said he was working for the government then when he and a group of researchers undertook this World Bank-funded study on a land-use plan that was finalized by Hong Kong-based consulting firm Freeman Fox and Associates.

Palafox cited a recommendation from the study that the government should monitor the Marikina Riverbank so that the water would not reach 90 meters. Likewise, no structure should have been allowed within nine meters from the riverbank, he added.

“Dahil hindi sinunod ’yun, parang massacre ang nangyari [Because the recommendation was not heeded, what occurred was virtually a massacre],” he said.

The three-volume report also noted that “urban development is spreading into [these] areas which are, in their present state, unsuitable for development—either because they are low-lying and liable to flooding, or because development is without adequate facilities for the treatment and disposal of sewage [the norm in Manila] and so will continue to contribute to the severe pollution of areas, such as Laguna de Bay.”

The study added: “The unsuitable areas for development, where pressures are nevertheless considerable, are primarily the flat coastal areas to the north where extensive areas are liable to flooding and where increased pressures for reclamation are likely to further exacerbate this problem.”

Another is “the Marikina Valley, to the east, where the land is liable to flooding and where development with inadequate provision for the treatment and disposal of sewage is contributing to the severe pollution of Laguna de Bay and where flooding is a problem in the adjacent areas.”

Finally, the study said the pressure for development, but requiring control, includes “the western shores of Laguna de Bay where development without adequate facilities for the treatment and disposal of sewage is contributing to the severe pollution of Laguna de Bay and where flooding is a problem in the adjacent areas.”

“In order to avoid development contributing to longer-term flooding and water pollution, it is necessary that the short-term development is restricted in these areas. Only when remedial measures to deal with the problems have been implemented, should the development of these areas proceed on a significant scale,” the study said.

“Lessons are to be learned, for sure, but these have been taught three decades ago,” Palafox said.

Just wondering how was the Nuvo.City open house last Thursday? Successful ba? Many went ba and did it translate into sales? Hope it was a success! :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

Ei how much is a studio unit here and what are the payment schemes available?

hello! this is kit luna of NUVO CITY. Our masterplanner is Edmonds International and working locally is Architect Meloy Casas of Casas+Casas Architects.


first tower construction is in full swing.

hello! this is kit luna of NUVO CITY. Our masterplanner is Edmonds International and working locally is Architect Meloy Casas of Casas+Casas Architects.

first tower construction is in full swing.

^^ Great. We have an insider for Nuvo. Hope you keep us updated on Nuvo developments/

Yes it was a fun, exciting event, with a lot of investors satisfied and enjoyed with the artist and the food. The presentation was really great that makes the investors really happy,and makes them get units, i hope you join us some other time mr. 3cr, hope to see you in our showroom, will be happy to meet you....

Thanks for the update as well as for the invite Daryl. :)

I hope they construct first a bypass flyover along E.Rodriguez Ave. going to Calle Industria. Just like in Rockwell along EDSA. The corner of Calle Industria is already congested everyday due to spill over traffic produced by vehicle going to Eastwood City. The MMDA u-turn slot between Green Meadows and nearby Eastwood back entrance along E. Rodriguez is creating monstrous traffic making your travel at C5 slowbit a lot :ohno:

very nice mini city.any idea which or what tower will be the retail area will be placed?we are also interested on having a business and a condo unit there.thanks a lot!

Looks like prices in the area are expected to go down...


Certain Metro Manila property prices expected to slump
Business World
http://www.bworld.com.ph/BW093009/content.php?id=054

PROPERTY PRICES in certain areas in Metro Manila that were hardest hit by floods triggered by Tropical Storm Ondoy are likely to fall, as developers and buyers reassess whether those locations are fit for their projects and their homes, respectively.

While analysts could not immediately say how much real estate prices in those areas — portions of Marikina City and Pasig City as well as several municipalities in Rizal province — would suffer, they were unanimous in saying that both buyers and developers would think twice before investing in those locations.

In a phone interview yesterday, Ramon Jose E. Aguirre, research manager at Colliers International, said people would likely prefer areas that are on higher ground after seeing what the rains did to those locations. "It would have negative impact not just on prices, but also the preference of peopleIt’s still vague how big the effect would be, but it’s obvious that the values of properties there are in danger [of dropping]...The new developments there could become hard sells."

Prince Christian R. Cruz, senior economist of online research house Global Property Guide, agreed that prices in those areas would suffer, but said it was still too early to say by how much.

Claro Cordero of Jones Lang La Salle, for his part, said property prices in Cainta and Marikina, which he placed at between P8,000 to P15,000 per square meter for commercial lots and P2,000 to P5,000 for residential lots, could dip by as much as 15%. "It won’t be immediate. Initially, it should be around 10% to 15% at most. That represents the bargaining power of the owner...He doesn’t have any option but to bring it down."

Mr. Cruz added that developers too could adopt a wait-and-see position, as the government could impose regulations for projects in flood-prone areas. "After the Cherry Hills [disaster in Antipolo] for example, government came out with stricter regulations for building foundation [for projects on sloped areas]...Now, [regulators might demand better] flood control systems," he said.

Mr. Cordero, meanwhile, said that those areas would be off the map for some investors for some time. "We were talking to some investors and, at this point, it was an eye-opener for them...It would eventually go back to normal. But in short term, they would take out Cainta and Marikina from their priorities," he said.

Officials of the Chamber of Real Estate and Builders’ Associations were not immediately available for comment.

Mr. Cruz said the government must also improve infrastructure, since developers’ investments would be for naught if flood waters could damage them as a result of poor drainage and sewerage systems.

Mr. Aguirre said property developments in hard-hit areas could slow as property firms review their options.

Now, they would think twice [before moving into these areas]...depende talaga sa movement ng government in uplifting sewerage and [flood control] infrastructure," he said.

In the immediate term, Mr. Cordero said developers and those looking to buy homes can be expected to shun the flood-prone eastern areas of Metro Manila and prefer the southern areas instead. "If you are looking for hotspots for property development, it’s southern vs eastern Metro Manila...The loss from the east side would benefit developers on the south side south since [projects there were] barely affected," he said.

Mr. Cruz, however, said that given the scarcity of space in Metro Manila, property developers and buyers would eventually come back to the eastern areas. "The problem is if you don’t want to live there, where do you go?" he said, pointing out that aside from Marikina, the other places that were submerged were not flood-prone before.

Architect Felino Palafox, Jr., part of the team that wrote a study back in 1977 that cited the Marikina Valley as one of the areas unsuitable to property development, said the recent calamity should goad the government to undertake better-designed preventive steps.

"It will happen again. This is not the first time and this would not be the last time. Maybe the intensity of rainfall was the first, but the floods happened before," he said.

^^ good marketing slogan, yet tactless to those who suffred Ondoy's deluge.. just saying.. :peace:

And also, a world renowned Billiars cue artist has a unit here right? Whats his name again?

I'm checking out this video from Youtube, seems like the lot space is too small.. Will they also get rid of shopwise-libis?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUjK7xq4HVE

Tall glassy buildings. We need more of this in the metropolis. Is first tower already sold-out??

I'm checking out this video from Youtube, seems like the lot space is too small.. Will they also get rid of shopwise-libis?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUjK7xq4HVE

Oh no, I hope not! I fell in love after watching this video :lol:

Seems it get less glassy. Though, I'm not surprised.

I'm checking out this video from Youtube, seems like the lot space is too small.. Will they also get rid of shopwise-libis?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUjK7xq4HVE

i agree, parang ang daming promises but the lot is way too small. :nuts: pano kaya pagkakasyahin yun?! :nuts:

I think they have proven their ability to deliver in the Infinity at the Fort. Ganda ng lumabas so far. It looks better than the render IMHO. Its not easy to be called the tallest residential tower in the FORT. And for a new developer to accomplish that feat is no laughing matter which is a testament to the people behind this development.

The lot includes the Shopwise and the sports center lots beside the Nuvocity showroom With that much space, they can make an incredible skyline in Libis.

It is more affordable than Rockwell's Grove and more modern than MW's Eastwood City. They have niched themselves with the modern affordable market. And with the shareholder's being known to be good mediamen and businessmen, I think they will be true to every step of this development. Which is why I know for a fact that this project will deliver to its promises.

This is an exciting development and I'm excited to see such a modern pocket development in our country.

Galing ng video. Nuvo City has the best AVP!!!!!!

Daming grapics and renders. After seeing this video, I think Nuvocity will give Eastwood and Rockwell, a run for it's money.

Ive went into one grand open houses of Nuvo city, there were great singers and performers and the food was great! I believe they spent so much on these kinds of affairs

there you go guys, we can see the collumn preparations now. I wonder how this will look next year

passed by there yesterday, already on the 2nd floor, with posts ready for the 3rd. :)

Nuvoland poised for growth (http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?articleId=574666&publicationSubCategoryId=66)
(The Philippine Star (http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?articleId=574666&publicationSubCategoryId=66)) Updated May 13, 2010 12:00 AM

MANILA, Philippines - Nuvoland Philippines Inc. has recently opened its doors to its office unit owners, with its recent completion and start of turnover of The Infinity, billed as the tallest building in Bonifacio Global City.

Nuvoland Philippines, developer of The Infinity, has reached this project milestone on schedule. Meanwhile, the sold out residential tower of The Infinity will be completed and ready for turnover by December 2010, also as originally scheduled. The Infinity project is a joint venture between Nuvoland Phils and Silverman Holdings Inc.

Meantime Nuvoland is setting a record construction phase in the first tower, the Aspire in Nuvocity, its flagship mixed use development in Libis, Quezon City. The Aspire, which has reached close to sell out levels is 49 storeys tall making it one of the tallest edifice in Quezon City. The project cost of Aspire tower is P2 billion.

Nuvoland has earmarked P3 billion for its capital expenditures budget
for 2010. Nuvoland’s president/CEO Rally Martinez said that its company’s continued growth is backed by strong sales from its existing projects, which continue to maintain its successful niches in the real estate industry. Martinez added that because of the robust sales in Aspire at Nuvocity, the next tower is being readied for launching this year. This new tower of Nuvocity, will be in addition to new projects
being eyed by Nuvoland in Bonifacio Global City and expansions in the leisure/resort residential sector.

Nuvoland’s continued success in its real estate projects hinges not only on its high standards of product quality and its on time delivery, but also by its strict adherence to corporate governance in doing business. All Nuvoland projects are registered with the Housing and Land Regulatory Board. Nuvoland ensures that the projects have the requisite national and local government permits. Furthermore, all sales contracts entered into by Nuvoland are consistent with all existing laws governing real estate transactions to protect the buying public.

How true is the rumor na the Marikina fault line passes through EW. Come to think of it, Nuvo is just few meters away from EW.

if you look it on a map, the fault line, or Markinia Valley Fault System or MVFS (as people from the subdivisions it pass through call it) lies directly on these posh subdivisions: Valle Verde I, II, and VI, Green Meadows, White Plains, Acropolis, and St. Ignatius.

http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z88/SCUD_1975/marikina.jpg
and compare it with this map (http://maps.google.com/maps/place?cid=1334327545951074938&q=nuvo&hl=en&cd=1&cad=src:pplink&ei=F5PyS7D2GZ3auAOe0Iz6BQ).


Nuvo.City is near but not on top of it, hence it shouldn't be a problem. Besides, the mat/raft foundation being used in the 4.2 hectare development should be enough to withstand the future quakes than can strike our country. Buildings in other parts of Metro Manila are more vulnerable to destruction. Let's just hope the "Big One" won't hit us that hard.

Congratulations to those who have invested in Nuvo.City, Construction is already on the 3rd floor and is at a rapid pace. :)

Yay Nuvo City is in full swing!!!! This building is amazing. I hope the whole plan of this area is constructed according to the original. It's really great.

ASPIRE TOWER will be ready by DEC. 2012, we're still offering it at 42 months to pay 0% interest for as low as 10% downpayment. It's a 48th storey tower with the amenity level on the 5th floor (with Adult & kiddie pool, a gym, 2 function rooms, a park & a tennis court). ASPIRE is located at NUVO.CITY. NUVO.CITY is a satellite city located along C5 Libis cor. Calle Industria, it has 2 office towers facing c5 and a hotel at the back are the 5 residential tower. ASPIRE is our flagship project in NUVO.CITY. When we turn over the unit its fully finished semi furnish and when you reserve within September 2010 we'll be including a 42 inch plasma TV, a 2 door refrigerator & an electric stove with range hood, basically you just have to bring your furnitures and appliances the unit is already liveable.

Thanks again and hope to hear from you.

yes medyo mataas na nga ang presyo. congratulations to the IPO unit owners!

This is really competition for Circulo Verde

last year the minimum size of a unit is somewhat 6 million,ground excavation/piloting palang sila. ngayon magkano na kaya?

^^Now this is a really classy development. RLC should learn a thing or two on classy development from this especially after their :ohno: design of Sonata in Ortigas.
RLC is a low budget real estate developer, they cant afford to pay US based Architectural firm. Kaya hindi maganda design ng bldg nila, it is probably done by a freelancer

:bash::bash:

the original plan was a glass clad,ngayun may concrete wallings na sila from the 13th floor (14th floor) pataas, anong nangyari sa aproved design ng qc

They probably realized that drawings are easy but its harder or more expensive to construct.
So they have the reserve the right to make modifications. :)

But its too early to disappoint their investors. I'm sure they will try to impress people they have several more towers to sell.

false advertising should be illegal. this is idiotic and will probably scar the skyline rather than make it look nice. i really despise cheap developers.

bumili ka ng unit,para paligiran ng semento,ang tataas ng mga bintana oh,halos di mo masilip ang views na binabayaran mo

the tiny windows are for bathrooms, windows next to it are for the kitchens. the spaces right next to the small windows are for balconies.

The blank walls at the corner are floor to ceiling windows for the special 1br units. :)

how about the non corner units? nasa plano ba ang desinyong ito sa sinubmit ng nuvo sa qc??? may mga lapses ata, at yung mga lapses ay di dapat yan kinokonsente, sa design glass curtain, at hangang 14th floor pa ang floor to ceiling pero pag dating sa higher floors patay...

non-corner units have windows wide enough for ample lighting in the rooms. sure, there has been some changes in the outcome due to limitations in construction. but when you go to the showroom and inspect the scale model, it is true to the actual building being constructed.

all the floors will look like those with pre-cast walls, except for the grand penthouse (loft) units which have floor-to-ceiling windows wrapped around.

nuvo.city is not for everyone, i'm pretty sure about that. but the convenience upon completion of the whole city would be, IMO, worth the money someone will put. :)


back to topic:
the 2nd tower, Dream@nuvo.city will be launched by the end of this week. we are already accepting reservations for IPO of the 2nd tower. PM me for more info.

some construction updates taken March 3, 2011.

OMG what happen to the original design???? Sorry but the revised design looks pretty bad.

^^ went to the first page and took a look at the original. I think its more or less the same, its just that there was this evening neonlight effect that made the original render seemed exotic. This one, on the other hand, looks "citylandish". Not to say that its bad.. But Rhian Ramos does look great! :lol:

oo nga.. the original render used the dark background to hide what it will look like in the light!

looks like an avida project to me

The original design have vertical elements to it and I remember seeing a you tube video of this project and it is suppose to be pretty much all glass cladding. I am sure the architectural designer from Mexico for this project is not proud of the outcome of this project.

Just too bad, I thought it was too good to be true for the prices of these units.

Nice name though.. The Dream Tower. It looks like theres a lot of fireworks going on inside this one right? I mean there will be a lot of features inside this building

this will be Nuvo.City's Fifth Facade

well, maganda ang concept ng nuvo city just like me, i play 5 sports, volleyball,basketball,table tennis, badminton, and tennis... ang problema nga doble ang price ng pre selling units nila kesa sa rfo sa eastwood...hopefully, matauhan ang nasa taas na middle income ang target nila

:ohno:

A facade or façade (pronounced /fəˈsɑːd/) is generally one side of the exterior of a building, especially the front, but also sometimes the sides and rear. The word comes from the French language, literally meaning "frontage" or "face".

^^They have a new render shown on a daily days back. It was not in shining glass. Although, still looking tall.

prestigious concrete condominiums lol.

Good evening I am Fred Melgar from Nuvo City, I am inviting you to visit us in Nuvo City it is located in Libis Quezon City. I can discuss to you thoroughly about our prestigious condominiums while we're having our sumptuous dinner. Please contact me at (0917)808-08-45. Thank you very much hope to hear from you soon!

They lost all their prestige once you took a big U-turn and went back towards Cheap City.

Nuvo Cityland.

Nuvo Cityland? Now thats unfair.. Nakakainsulto naman sa cityland.. :lol: How about Victoria Nuvo City?

For those who may be interested to learn more about NuvoCity as well as the Aspire project, we will be having an open night on Tuesday April 5, 2011 around 6pm onwards. Please visit our showroom in E.Rodriguez. We will give you free drinks, food and entertainment for just showing up. No strings attached - don't have to buy anything, we are primarily promoting the project so there will be no pressure tactics! Anyway hope to see you tomorrow.

This project has been promoted before, though, the promotion was deceiving...look at the renders. Is the future there? Investors dream has died. Well, maybe they are making the top half glassy.

Have any of you been to The Nuvo.City Lifestyle Center? If not, then maybe you should try visiting it one of these days. From my point of view, there has been no deceit with regard to the renders and design of Nuvo.City. These glassy renders are just renders and "for announcement purposes only", and you can see it written in fine print on the previous website as well as previous publishings. On the fliers that are being given out, Nuvoland shows the exact render of the buildings to be built.

Please remember that you should check it out personally first before making comments such as comparing it to other buildings/developers. I believe most of you who have not seen it personally will change your perspective about things. Just a gentle reminder to those judge based on Web Info/Pictures only. :)

yet another scam. it's ridiculous how they get away with this. it just doesn't make sense.

well, i am thinking about this area. c5 is actually the west valley fault system. it means, these establishments are at highly risk same with eastwood, the grove, mckinley hills. well i just hope no big thing will happen in metro manila.

the big one is coming up. by that i mean earthquake. its gonna be real bad

As for me, I've seen it personally. As for the renders or announcements, again, they are deceiving. Well, to give them the benefit of the doubt, let's wait for the completion of the project.

This has always been the case of how the real estate industry works. Really they're always scheming, fooling investors with they're flyers and renders. We were once a victim of this. Can the HLURB do something about it?

It's like investing a property in the Philippines would need to have a sign Buy at Your own risk. Such talent in marketing racketeers.

I agree with you for most developers but some developers stick with the initial rendering/design like Ayala & Rockwell.

Excuse me, but not every single person in the world who has interest in this project has the accommodation to travel to the Lifestyle Center to verify that the render of a building is correct. Therefore, most people have to trust what was given out. I can assure you that the big black glassy render in the flier and the VIDEO is nothing like what we just saw. For announcement purposes only? Why would you ANNOUNCE something you won't fulfill? It's like all the presidential nominees who are out there promising everyone riches and universal health care upon their election, and when they're elected they accomplish none of that. It's all the same. Between the big black glassy render and the new render, you see no deceit !? This is garbage now. And not only that, this is the first of 5 more crappy towers that are ready to sprout. The comparison is well deserved.

I swear, if the Gramercy turns out this way, I'm going to be livid.

The fault line is actually a few kilometres away from this area. Its actually situated on the other side of Nuovo city and eastwood and running directly through the prestigious subdivisions of Corinthians, White plans, Acropolis and Greenmeadows.

ilang hundreds meters nga lang,pero never pa nangyari sa history ng metro manila na may gumuhong gusali dahil sa lindol na gawa sa tamang templa ng semento kung baga STANDARD,noon may nangyaring mga pag guho ng gusali noong lumindol ng around 6.0-7.5 magnitude pero ang mga natumbang gusali ay pag aari ng mga chinese sa binondo-sta. cruz area na ang pag kagawa nila sa isang poste ay may 4 lamang na steel bar sa loob...mahinang pagkagawa ang sanhi ng mga pag guho..................

Wow. That looks crowded. I can only imagine the traffic this will bring in the area.

^^ which is actually the bottleneck area already due to eastwood. with this development, i hope they will construct elevated uturns or something to aid congestion...

LOL. when i first saw the first render a year ago, i was WOW all glass. tapos yung 2nd and 3rd render ano nangyari? all cement. haha but hopefully it would look good. like F1

LOL@20 years. ok lang din, para hindi ganun masaturate ang market. china ngayon ganon ang nangyayari.
