When I talked to their agent last year, he said that the first 3 floors of the building will be for commercial purposes. When I prodded him to explain, he said that at least 2 floors will be leased out to a call center, while one floor will be for commercial spaces, including the building administration offices. I then made a comment that it would be chaotic having agents hanging out in the lobby of nice condo. He then said that there would be a different entrance for the BPO people and a separate one for the residents/guest. Hmmmmm.....I hope they have separate elevators for the BPO company so that they can ensure that the BPO people or their guests will stay out of the residential areas.

There will be a separate entrance for Tower 1, Tower 2, and the offices. Only the ground and 2nd floors are designated as commercial/office area. The 3rd floor will be the amenities area, with some residential units with their own private mini garden. (I think that so called garden is just big enough for a couple of small plants though..)

Anchor Land expands project in ‘new Vegas’
By: Emman Cena
Philippine Daily Inquirer
8:30 pm | Friday, August 12th, 2011


Real estate firm Anchor Land firmly believes that the Aseana City in Parañaque will be the next central business district in Metro Manila, its potential is so big that the company decided to do more business in the area. The listed developer has acquired an adjacent prime property measuring nearly two hectares to add to the progressively developing SoleMare Parksuites.

The newly bought property will be part of the company’s SoleMare Parksuites’ Phase 3, touted to be one of Anchor Land’s biggest developments to date.

Through its wholly owned subsidiary Posh Properties Development Corp., Anchor Land bought the additional prime lot from D. M. Wenceslao and Associates Inc., the developer of Aseana City.

“We have always been bullish in this area, particularly in Aseana City, because we recognize its immense potential and the tremendous growth it offers not only to our company but to our clients and investors as well,” said Anchor Land Holdings Inc. (Alhi) vice chair Steve Li.

Aseana City is a 204-hectare reclamation development beside the SM Mall of Asia, in front of the scenic Manila Bay. The mixed-use complex is also poised to become the entertainment capital of Manila, the “new Vegas,” said Li of the Pagcor Entertainment City currently under construction.

Strategic acquisition

“This strategic acquisition will allow us to further expand our best-selling SoleMare Parksuites project, and in the process fast-track the development of the business park into a bustling tourism, leisure and entertainment hub that we envision as the ‘new Vegas’ in the Asia-Pacific region,” he added.

By pursuing the development of SoleMare, the company hopes to sustain the upward trend in property values in the Aseana City and adjoining areas, thus benefiting investors and end-users alike.

ONE-BEDROOM with balcony

SoleMare Parksuites’ prime location between the Mall of Asia and the Pagcor Entertainment City has attracted huge interest not only from local buyers but also from expatriates and overseas Filipinos, especially those who are based in North America and Europe, said company officials.

The expansion of SoleMare Parksuites is triggered by strong demand for “sophisticated yet affordable and high-quality residential condominiums in the area.” The project has also helped Anchor Land develop and nurture a distinct market outside of its established niche in the Filipino-Chinese community.

Mixed-use development

SoleMare Parksuites is a mixed-use development that features residential, commercial and office units with generous provisions for amenities and recreational spaces. Tower A is already on the process of turning over units to its buyers, said Jun Alano, Anchor Land’s PR officer.

For its third phase, company officials said they are planning a mixed-use development that would take into consideration the site’s proximity to scenic Manila Bay. It would likewise feature more open spaces, bigger amenities and garden areas with sustainable urban design buildings.

Elizabeth Ventura, Alhi vice president for sales and marketing, said that such a big area offers unique development potentials that should provide more comfort, bigger living spaces and unparalleled convenience to its residents.

SoleMare Parksuites also brings shopping and entertainment destinations closer to its future residents.

As part of the Aseana City community, future residents of SoleMare Parksuites can expect the soft opening of the US $750-million casino and gaming resort complex of Belle Corp. on the second quarter of 2012. Located between Roxas Boulevard and Macapagal Avenue, it will make available 19,626 sq m of gaming space as well as six hotel towers with 1,000 rooms by the fourth quarter of 2013, including 86 luxury suites, Anchor Land said in a statement.

On paper, SoleMare Parksuites will feature about four 18-story buildings offering one- to two-bedroom (or combination of these units) fully furnished units. Anchor Land commissioned the country’s best architects to match the strategic location with structurally-appealing units. Solemare Parksuites is also made Wi-Fi ready.

Went to our unit viewing last weekend. They said that the turnover delay was because they wanted to turnover both bldg A & B together (instead of the previously planned A first and then B after a couple of months).

It's basically just 1 bedroom units (combinable) ranging from about 25sq.m. to 32sq.m., some with balconies and some with gardens (3rd floor units only). Corner units are bigger 1 br units and 2 br units on the topmost floors. Here are some sample layouts:

Anchor Land earnings rise 40% in 9 mos
By Zinnia B. Dela Peña (The Philippine Star) Updated November 29, 2011 12:00 AM

MANILA, Philippines - Binondo-based upscale property firm Anchor Land Holdings Inc. said its net earnings grew 40 percent in the nine months ending September 2011 to P561 million.

In a statement, Anchor Land said consolidated revenues reached P2.14 billion, up five percent from the year-earlier level largely due to the recognition of revenues from Phase 2 of its bestselling SoleMare Parksuites project as well as sustained sales and construction activities in its other luxury residential developments.

Anchor Land likewise derived revenues from the commercial operation of its One Shopping Center Mall in the Baclaran bargain district and the company-held commercial units in its Mandarin Square project in Binondo.

Right. I too am not a fan of the design. Very ordinary, including the units layout, considering they have commissioned (daw) the country's best architects. For the investors' consolation, the place no doubt is to die for especially after a couple of years, the amenities with a large pool is a plus factor. Pinakamaganda sa project na 'to si Angel.

The tower blocks quickly lost their 'futuristic' look; concrete turned from the crisp pale color the designers had imagined to a dull grey, stained by pollution. ... and there appeared to be a lack of understanding about what is elegance ..yes its really VERY ORDINARY Building..Not Striking..

In the future, Modern architects will be using more glass than ever in their building designs in this area. Architects are keenly aware that like others around the world. And like the other project in Sm Mall of Asia Complex are now using More on Glass in Building their Tower, An Example of a Glass structure in this area are the OCEANAIRE MANILA beside SEA Residences.

Design-wise, glass looks elegant. But there are lots of negative reviews (mostly from other countries na mas nauna magdesign satin ng glass condos) about the glass condos. There are advantages and disadvantages to having double-glazed glasses, check niyo nalang what works for you. And besides, glass is cheaper so you may actually be getting less of what you paid for.
