Aaaay ganoon? Ayaw!

Gibs, I hope that the 7th BTO will be more good-looking than The Blue Sapphire Residences!!!!

The 7th BTO project will be part of that cluster of GW buildings on the right hand side of this pic posted by realtor_manila.
Thank You Cynch!

hey is this the 7th BTO site?.... Just noticed today that they're now dressing up the whole fence with tarpouline that says... Build Your Own...

Build Your Own?
Isn't that the people building Fort Palm Springs?

Naku Pau ang GW eh BTO (Build To Own) sa pagkaka alam ko. Yung BYO (Build Your Own) eh version naman ng developer of Fort Palms yan.

[pau_p1]

ay ganun ba.. hehehehe... sorry wrong name.. hehehehe =)

[Gibson@G&W]

Well, that is really the purpose of this developer, to try and immitate our name as close as possible...so that people will get confused...shows you their true intentions!

But I believe the the knowledgeable buyer will surely find out that they are just a new player with no experience in construction and development. Just their ads say it all...only 6,900 pesos per month!

Its frustrating sometimes, all these gimmicks to try and trick people!

'Build Your Own' sounds wrong anyway, makes you think you will have to build it yourself!

Funny...

Not too excited about that location...
On 32nd st might be too busy for me (traffic wise)...

Does the new BYO (not BTO) development have a name?
Dapat yata katukin yung bakod para malaman...

Edited to add:
Ooops, looks like there's a separate thread for this one already...so off topic na itong post ko.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to the new BTO and previewing the "wide-front" feature Gibson mentioned earlier.

Yeah, you've been right all along...we were aleady in the final stages of negotiations at that time...we just did not want to announce before we have all the documents sign, the t's crossed and the i dotted!

Now that would prove the rumor TFR would have a twin across it wrong.

Pwede pa siguro Aaron if ever Robinson can buy the Chateau De Noble lot...

[thomasian]

I'd want it to be taken over by Eton so RLC can focus on bigger projects like the Trion and their most prestigious yet, the luxury twin-towers on 5th Ave.

Why not by G&W?

[3cr]

Well because I'm still hoping the lot San Jose Builder is planning to put up Fort Victoria on would rather be a GW project instead! Gibs mentioned that lot (across Pacific Plaza) was offered to GW as well but don't know what came out of it. Sana GW na lang di ba!

The tower will be located in lot 2 behind penhurst and kensington, acquired from PDIC.

The new tower will have similar sizes to current designs but will feature a new concept. Like in Sapphire and Hamptons Units, where we have the "Multi-Corner" units, the new tower will have a new style of design internally dubbed as "wide-fronts", which will feature units that are oriented to have wide windows....

Since the lot is 1,998 sqm with an FAR of 8, the GFA will be slightly bigger than the current Sapphire towers (from 14,400 to 15,984), while maintaining the existing foot print of the building, will result in a taller building. The building footprint will only be approx 30% of the lot area.

Hope this helps! I hoped to launch earlier with exact same design with Sapphire towers, but my brother inisted on implemeting a new design to give this tower its own charachter as well...so it will take a little longer, but will surely be worth it.

@gibson

since all three buildings on the block will be g&w projects, you think you can consider applying the grand hamptons model of having reciprocal privileges/shared amenities for owners of the 3 condos?

that way you can do away with building the ubiquitous swimming pool and function room solely for this latest b-t-o offering. baka pwede badminton courts naman at gym.

people in all 3 buildings can swim in the penhurst covered pool if they don't wanna bake under the sun, swim in the outdoor kensington pool if they wanna get a tan, hold parties at the roofdeck function of kensington (may manila golf views pa), and play badminton or work out in the new building.

baka feasible naman kasi with g&w's retained units in penhurst and kensington, you still have a major say in the HOA of these buildings.

just my 2 cents' worth. i think it will further enhance the value proposition not only of this latest project, but of the 2 existing ones as well. hope you consider this suggestion.

Kensington has a roofdeck function room? WOW!
Can unit owners of Grand Hamptons 1&2, Sapphire (Blue) and Penhurst use that too? (Greedy )

That's a pretty good suggestion.
I think it would only work if there are no walls between the 3 different projects (like in the Grand Hamptons 1 & 2).
I think there is already a wall between Penhurst and Kensington.

A roofdeck function room is really nice. (maybe a roofdeck badminton courts - Joke Joke)
