MANDALUYONG | St. Francis Shangri-La Place

[Edmundtanso]

ah okay, thanks thomasian

[jcb]

di ba sa parking space ng shangri-la itatayo yung St.francis towers near in megamall because it needs a large portion of land and the parking space is the only available right.yan tuloy nalilito ako

[ryanr]

Thanks for the map pau, and for the graphics, whyte. Its in a great location...it will definitely look very tall if seen from the south (esp. Makati, BGC) since it is in the edge of the Ortigas skyline (in the foreground). Same true with One San Mig which is one of the tallest in Ortigas....we'll see how it will compare with St. Francis once it is completed.

just upload the picture to an online image service like www.photobucket.com (it's free, though u have to make an account first if u don't have one yet). then, it will automatically provide the URL for that pix, which u will be using for the image tag [img]http://[/img]

that's it post mo na dali we're all excited

[bustero]

Pasensiya na this is my first attempt to post a picture , plus it's just a phone pic pa, so i guess low quality.


Will do a bette job next time.

In any case you can make out shang mall, the fence, a small st francis sign, the backhoes with a small pile at the back.

Will try to do better on the weekend!

no problemo thanks for sharing ur pix

[renell]

Is that only part of the lot or are we looking at the right hand part of the lot?

[jcb]

naliwanagan na ako.doon pala talaga itatayo

[pau_p1]

well it's the whole lot upto St. Francis Ave... (if i'm not mistaken)

anyways.. thanks for posting that bustero...

[Edmundtanso]

thanks for the photo bustero....so it is all fenced up already. looking forward to see the renderings of this project.

[ryanr]

thanks bustero... your picture helped indicate its location

[Edmundtanso]

doesnt look like it's a big lot. please share a rendering if anyone get hold of one, thanks

[renell]

yeah, queetz and I were talking about those issues about the lot. It doesn't seem that big, does it bustero? and does it have neighbours already, the lot?

[ryanr]

I'm sure they know what they are doing. Its part of their proposal to squeeze two towering twins in there, so i think they can do it.

Shang Tower's lot isnt to big, and yet its one massive tower.

[bustero]

I think the lot is at least 2000 sq.m. (just a guess). That's really enough to build two towers. GA's lot is only 1000sq.m. I think. In the GA thread we were talking about a bulding that may be like 180 m. The height of this should be taller but the usable space similar.

The lot is squarish when it was fenced off before as a parking lot, I'm not sure now though it still seems like it. Facing the St. Francis Project to the left of my picture is a police station which the picture does not show. There's a driveway at the back that connects to St. Francis street which connects to and is also used by the mall, behind it is another empty lot (or is it??)facing Shaw Blvd. This lot is in between Citiland Shaw and Metrobank. Of course from the front side (of the picture) it's besides Shangrila Mall as you can see from the picture.

[whyte]

i think that vacant lot is more than enough for that building.
IMO its way bigger than the lot occupied by ONE SAN MIG AVE

as of friday wala pang excavation na nangyayari pinuntahan ng tito ko yung site para kausapin yung engineer or yung project manager para tingnan kung sino yung contractor at kung maku2ha nya ang project para makapag-deliver ng construction supplies kaya lang wala yung engineer kya babalik sya ngayon.

[renell]
