well its the 1905 plan.. probably it will eventually change din kahit natuloy yan dahil tumawid ang WW2 kung saan lahat din nasira... pero sayang talaga di naging ganyan ang Manila..

oo nga! masasayang lang din kung natuloy pa ang plano dahil malaki at malawak ang pinsala ng world war 2 sa manila. kung hindi lang tayo nasali sa dinagmaan, napreserve pa sana natin ang karamihan sa mga old and historic buildings na ngayon hindi na natin muling makikita at hanggang mga litrato na lang tayo...

No one has mentioned the Timog Rotonda in Quezon City:

Welcome Rotonda: built as a rotonda but isn't utilized as one.

btw, liban sa Pasay Rotonda, pinakamaliit na nakita ko eh yung rotonda sa Bonifacio/New Lucban sa Baguio

nasa 1 meter lang ata ang diameter nun

sa liit nun nahihirapang lumiko/mag-UTurn yung mga sasakyan at yun lagi ang nagko-cause ng traffic kaya lagi akong late sa 7am na klase ko nun

It isn't utilized as one because the road is nearly as wide as it

Yeah, I can imagine the horrific traffic it will cause if they used it as a rotonda.

Note: I edited the thread title to just roundabouts because the definition of a rotunda is a "circular building, hall, or room, topped by a dome." Which doesn't really apply to the thread's subject matter.

agree..now I wonder why they call this as Welcome/Mabuhay ROTUNDA?

nike2.5 · March 11th, 2012, 03:23 PM

old picture?5-10 years ago?

lochinvar · March 11th, 2012, 07:58 PM

Is there a picture available for MOA rotunda?

Larry Legend · March 11th, 2012, 10:57 PM

Mandaluyong City has roundabout but I can't find an aerial picture of it in Google Images.

Probably the smallest roundabout in the country, the one at Eastwood City in Libis.

haha..Hmm maybe this won't qualify as a roundabout. Because it looks like it is temporary only (with potted plants placed in the middle). But I could be wrong though.

This roundabout in Fort Bonifacio looks nice too!
