Pasay opens business district in reclamation area

MANILA, Philippines – A new business district with classy hotels, entertainment centers and docking facilities for yachts and cruise ships is expected to rise in Pasay City’s reclamation area.

Mayor Wenceslao Trinidad signed Wednesday afternoon a memorandum of agreement with the West Marina Bay Development Inc. for the development of idle bay areas or reclaimed shorelines in Pasay.

The P15 billion Pasay Near Shore Development Project is expected to be bigger than the SM Mall of Asia complex that occupies 1.2 square kilometers.

hehe the same people who made the pagcor vid made this.
very nice project indeed.

[pau_p1]

tama ba ang tingin ko.. na off-shore yung plan nila.. that is.. magrereclaim pa sila extending to the bay?

hehehe.. di ako makapag streaming sa office kasi ehehhe

[jefflacs]

Dun sa video, they said it will be on top of a oil-rig like platform of some sort. I guess it wouldn't need "reclamation" kumbaga parang manila ocean park like standing on posts or columns

[stanleymalls]

Nyay! Parang nakakatakot naman yan.

Three kilometers ba ang layo ng mini-city na yan from the shore?

In fairness, maganda yung land plan nila. Like shells. And the lighthouse thing......

[wynngd]

^^uu nga ang maganda sa oild rig concept is floating ung buong city. walang problema sa paglubog ng lupa like sa mga reclaimed land at mababa ang probability na bahain kasi nga lumulutang.

Natuwa ako sa project na ito at least inde lang sa Dubai may mga gantong projects. Meron din dito sa Pinas...

[spearhead]

ano pa ba kc ang purpose ng lighthouse dun, just for a useless landmark? kasi obsolete na ang mga lighthouse ngayon, nakakahiya naman kung gagawa parin tayo nun for what? it's been obsolete since naimbento na yung mga advance navigational system including the GPS.... sana gawing muti-purpose nalang yung lighthouse na gagawin nila, something like those towers that can receive multi-signals like radio waves, etc...

[j.r.]

pa-post naman ng renders...

[veebo]

Ive seen the video and i think this project looks promising very very nice, mag-iiba na naman ang mapa ng pinas :)

[pau_p1]

hmmm... parang sobrang costly ito ahh.. plus.. it would not be good for Mall Of Asia as their unobstructed view of the Manila Bay sunset will be obstructed by this 'futuristic' structure...

[--SuperB0y--]

parang isang pangarap ng isang mayor. hehe. mukhang mananatiling pangarap lamang. well, up untill torism bay is a success already. baka sakaling matuloy ito.

[Potchot69]

Di ba nakakatakot tumira dyan pag bagyo?:eek:

[venntro]

Can someone post the video grabs similar to the video grabs of the PAGCOR video in the other thread? Thanks.

[amras]

is this for real? I thought it's just some sort of a final year thesis or something...

[lightsaber46]

seems like a dangerous place to live if typhoon Frank is in your doorstep.

[leechtat]

gusto ko yung lighthouse, kahit obsolete na.. it is reminiscent of the grandeur of manila.. it sets the mood for the whole west marina bay project.. also, there will be a more grand tower, which is the pagcor tower, so lighthouse is a good option, imho..

but its kind of dangerous in typhoon seasons.. imagine hurling shattered glass from west marina to mall of asia.. just my imagination, may not be possible at all..

[jcb]

pero guys yung mga oil rig sa ibat-ibang bansa survive the typhhon di ba? i mean is the type of system they will use is the same to the oil rig! and guys i remembered na may ilang structure sa netherland na nakatayo sa tubig for me i go for it yun nga lang dapat maayos yung pag-bubuild nito!

[Potchot69]

Tama ka pero para sa 'kin personally hindi ko kayang tumira sa 15th floor tapos bagyo sa labas at pag dungaw mo sa balcony makikita mo ang malalaking alon na para bang lalamunin ang gusali mo. Ngi!
Pero oka s'ya lalo na pag maganda ang panahon. Sana matuloy 'to.

[pau_p1]

but its kind of dangerous in typhoon seasons.. imagine hurling shattered glass from west marina to mall of asia.. just my imagination, may not be possible at all..

shattered glass won't reach mall of asia... kasi the marina will be 3 kilometers out to the sea...

i think that they have typhoons and earthquakes in their mind when they thought of this...

[leechtat]

^^ yah, kaya i said.. "just my imagination, may not be possible at all"

@potchot. haha.. malalaking alon na lalamon sa tuwing ika'y gigisig.. :lol:

[stanleymalls]

The project seems to be very promising but they would need earthquake-proof supports.

The Marikina Fault may ruin all the bay developments.

They should also think twice or thrice about designing it kasi typhoon-prone ang 'Pinas!

Pero go go go Wesma Bay! :lol:

[leechtat]

^^ Wesma bay, ha.. it has a nice ring to it...

[pau_p1]

well Marikina Fault line runs through other cities outside Marikina and within Metro Manila.... though I think.. it does not cross the bay area...

[c0kelitr0]

looks pretty ambitious huh! love it! :D

[stanleymalls]

sige na sige na... what's the connection of MARIKINA in this project in PASAY?
panalo na ang "QUEEN CITY OF ASIA"! hAHAHAHHAHA... queer...

Ang connection ng Marikina and Pasay ay:


The Valley Fault System The Valley Fault System (VFS), formerly called Marikina Valley Fault System (MVFS), has been recognized since 1924 through studies conducted on Philippine geology and mineral resources. Since then Filipino and foreign researchers have studied this zone of weakness where blocks on the crust of the earth have moved past each other by sliding. Such a zone of weakness where movements have occurred is technically called a fault.
Consisting of two major faults - the East Valley Fault (EVF) and the West Valley Fault (WVF) - the VFS is located about 5 kilometers east of the center of Metropolitan Manila.

Looks like something I would normally see on a Final Fantasy Video Game. Cheers to WEST MARINA BAY :cheers:

[jaygold06]

based on my insider this project will start this september. i thought this project was just a speculation. yes you heard it right west marina bay will push through with investors from dubai and singapore...

pagcor city + west marina bay... astig...:banana::banana::banana:

[richard24]

^^ totoo pala talaga tooooooooooo?!?!? akala ko isa lang siyang malaking joke joke joke., jusme tignan mo nga lang ang promotion nila parang rendering ng final fantasy, :lol:

VERY VERY good news kung totoo nga ito. september is next month! :)

can someone please clarify kung saan ito located? mejo nalilito ako sa location niya. :) thanks in advance., :) (edit: i'll answer my own question., sa likod pala ng MOA., pero pano na MOA? wala nang view., kawawa naman)

[jaygold06]

akala ko rin dati haka haka lng siya kaya di ko pinapansin yun pala tuloy pala itong project na ito. ang pagkakaalam ko eh di naman siya katabi ng moa but its under the municipality of pasay may seperate road na gagawin to get there tapos gagamitan yata ng mga platforms na ginagamit sa mga oil rigs tulad ng dubai so it means di na sya tatambakan ng lupa. based on my insider this project will costs $15B.

[jaygold06]

sana nga tuloy na tuloy na ito pag nagkaganun eh mauuna pa ang construction nito sa pagcor entertainment city.

[richard24]

^^ WOW. sana nga next month na ang start ng construction., i'm sooo excited to see cranes in Manila Bay. :) ang tagal ng Pagcor eh. :)

[jaygold06]

sana nga tuloy na tuloy na ito pag nagkaganun eh mauuna pa ang construction nito sa pagcor entertainment city.:cheers:

[Chikito888]

wow... ive watchded the video. I wonder if this is true? and when it will be starting in construction? anyone have idea?

[jaygold06]

from the infos that ive got construction will start this september..

[seven07]

wow... i thought this is not true, i am looking forward how they will construct this.

[The Wolfman]

At first I thought that this was just some prank, but is this really real?

If it does fly, this wow indeed...

But hey nothing's impossible though, but given that this is a government project... I really do hope it pushes through. Time to really reclaim our ocean fronts.

BTW who's the developer? First time I heard about this West Marina Bay Development Inc?

[pinas4real]

I hope this is true ... not some hoax in Youtube or Wikipedia....

[spearhead]

Why build a lighthouse?!? Ships these days don't need anymore guidance or help from lighthouses w/ their advance navigational system like the GPS. Not unless ganyan na kabulok ang maritime shipping ng pinas hanggang sa susunod na 500 yrs, walang radar at GPS w/c i would hardly believe.

[spearhead]

Just build a multipurpose tower that can receive radio signals for cellphones, satellite dishes, etc., w/ some revolving restaurant at the top.

I believe lightouse would be more of a symbolic structure than anything else

[jaygold06]

investors are from dubai and singapore.. dont know the names yet..

[Chikito888]

I wonder where are they going to connect the road through this? will it be near Mall of Asia?

[leechtat]

^^ basically, that's the idea marv. i'm just thinking if they will demolish some areas of the esplanade to make way for this project. but i guess, not in the near future, since this project is quite sketchy..

[jaygold06]

i think they wont demolish any part of the esplanade. the road will be constructed at the back of the church near the metrostar ferry terminal.

[rjekonomista]

i never heard of this project. tuloy talaga to? natawa ako dun sa Final Fantasy comment :lol: totoo. parang futuristic. :lol:

i'm having doubts parin sa project na to, though i admire the concept so much. any reliable source, also sino sino mga investors and developers? a P15-B project should have a lot of media exposure, pero asan na? any other info on this? nakakacurious talaga.:)

[jaygold06]

lets just wait this comming september...:banana::banana::banana:

[Potchot69]

Baka naman tinitipid nila ang PR para mas mapakinabangan ang pera sa pagpapatayo mismo.

[Potchot69]

OT muna. Nadinig ko sa The Evening News kagabi sa TV 5 na nag-bid daw ang Pilipinas to host the 2024 Olympics. Kung gano'n kailangan natin ng world class stadium. Sigurado ko sa bay area nila ilalagay ang Olympic city kung magkakaroon man.

[pinas4real]

lets just wait this comming september...:banana::banana::banana:

So what happened to this project? I thought we will hear something by September. Is this just one of the hoax in Youtube?

[rjekonomista]

:badnews:

[manila_eye]

dapat ituloy ito... ang ganda kaya ng vision nya...

[jaygold06]

ang balita ko tuloy ito. hindi ko lang alam kung kelan ang exact date ng construction

[manila_eye]

[jaygold06]

[jaygold06]

I can't wait for the construction of this project.:banana:

[JulZ]

(A)lphaLand Bay City(naks!):banana:+ (W)esMa Bay:lol: + (E)Bay City :nuts:= AWE CITY!!!... lahat naman siguro magstastart next year first quarter...why not a statue instead of a lighthouse, or a lighthouse with a statue..or sumtin like a sydney opera house. why not:)....

[rjekonomista]

[rjekonomista]

^^ooow ok. but anong property ba ng alphaland sa reclaimed area? di ba between MOA and Pagcor yun??

[jaygold06]

[jaygold06]

[gabskii]

ITS ALREADY February...

[JulZ]

[venntro]

^^ Well, we have no choice but to wait. At least we should be glad that there are such high-end proposals to begin with. West Marina is the only development which so far has no supporting news article. Pagcor City has both print and broadcast advertising, SM MOA continuously provides news updates on their plans while Alphaland Bay City has supporting news article as well. Let's hope West Marina is more than just a concept.

^^ Jaygold is supposed to be the contact of the insider to the West Marina Bay. Let's just hope it is an actual proposal.

[jaygold06]

^^ cencia na guys at kahit ako wala pa ding update galing sa insider ko.. ang alam ko nga eh nabiyayaan na ang gobyerno ng pasay sa proyektong ito di pa man nasisimulan.

[stanleymalls]

Di ba starting from the edges nung reclaimed land e malalim na yun di ba?

[manila_eye]

^^ not all... usually nga eh parang seashore dapat to prevent soil erosion under water.

[newgabskii]

Valentines day is near... still, no west marina bay news?

[marygenevivepamute]

yellow!! im juz new to this forum. i like the concept and all, its nice nga to know that a project as grand as this will happen here in the philippines, but pasay is pasay, magulo ang lugar na yan eh.(sorry sa mga taga pasay, taga jan din ako dati). sana naman lahat eh maayos na pati ung manila bay. its funny bordering on ridiculous ung news about the philippines bidding for 2024 olympics, isn't that somewhat stupid. hello, iimprove nyo muna ang mga sports facilities dito sa bansa at bigyan nyo ng budget ang mga athlete para naman ganahan sila iimprove ung skills nila. my father is a public highschool swimming and track and field coach, and i told him about this and he didn't have anything good to say about that bidding crap that the philippine government is trying to put up. stupid and more than stupid. eh sila nga di man lang sila mabigyan ng budget para maibili ng mga spike na shoes ung players nila, sports facilities pa kaya. come on now.

the 2024 olympics is just a mere rumors... we even "chizmis" it with my co-officemates at AT... hehehe... the ECITY can answer all your questions...

[carni20]

Matutuloy pa ba itong west marina bay?....sayang ang ganda pa nmn nito

[newgabskii]

they said it will start its construction on september 2008, then moved to february 2009... hmmm... it seems the proj is a mere joke
from zero to zero...

[manila_eye]

i have that feeling too

[chris_nigel]

naku kung yung sa land structure natatagalan sila pano pa kaya pag sa tubig na d ba? mas matatagalan sila siguro

[JulZ]

mas matatagalan pa tong wmb for sure...ilipat na lang nila kaya sa e-city:lol: ahon na west marina bay! ahon!

[carni20]

paano yan aahon eh, baka nung pi-noprose palang yan...nilubug na nila yan!!!! :nuts:

[chris_nigel]

tawagin na si dyesebel at marina para tumulong sa pag gawa sama na nila si perly at dugong

[newgabskii]

i thought there's already a MOA...

maybe if we think the optimists way, they are restructuring their plans coz open sea yun eh at residential community pa... they need to maximize security considering all unwanted circumstances that may occur its more than 1km from the shore right? :)



just nothing :)
