MAKATI | The Shang Grand Tower | 46F | 180m

The Shang Grand Tower
Makati
46 floors
Type: Residential

Built by the Kuok Group of Companies

no official height but significantly taller than the neighboring Enterprise Tower 1 (172 meters) so it could be around 185 meters.

^ Somehow, Shang Grand reminds me of a New York hotel building. I like that it's not your standard glassy or concrete building but has an eclectic feeling to it.

imo, the swimming pool area is too low... i'd feel like the whole world is watching me it's surrounded by tall buildings

ka tyronne, are those the ones taken from BSA? one of my fave structure in the city. its presence creates a different feeling which i can't explain. especially if you are looking at it from Ayala Centre. i love the pool shot too. sarap siguro feeling ng magswimming diyan.
