what i know hindi gigibain ang landmark, dinadagdagan sya ng floors at magkakafacelift basing on the picture posted by sir xavierdude. i think its also part of the 20 billion peso redevelopment

No ,it's Landmark Makati . Have you seen the elevated walkway and the BSA tower reflection on the glass? The photo includes several retail buildings like the Parkade in BGC. Xavierdude originally posted that photo.

I took that photo from an architecture alumni exhibit in ust. Many soon-to-be constructed and never-before seen projects were actually displayed.

When you look at the extra floors being added they are following the same line of the current building including the concrete cladding plus the colunms of the current structure, so can't see this design happening.

I think the reason why they followed the existing line and shape of columns was due to structural considerations. It's possible nman to put the cladding away from the wall even up to the edge of the existing concrete canopy to hide the old shape of the structure ,same as what they did in SM North Edsa.

Hope you are right it is a great store inside and the render looks great.

i see..nice job xavierdude and reign for sharing that..

at least makakasabay na ang Landmark Makati sa ganda ng newly-renovated Glorietta and Greenbelt..i just wonder whether the extended floors is a shopping mall or an office hub/BPO office..well either way its ok as long as its gonna look like that..

Ayala Land to spend P60 billion to 'Make it Makati'

by Coco Alcuaz | ANC | Thursday | Posted at 03/22/2012 5:23 PM | Updated as of 03/22/2012 | 5:24 PM

MANILA, Philippines - Ayala Land Inc. said Thursday it and Makati Commercial Estates Association will spend P60 billion over the next five years to carve their Makati properties into six districts as it launches a "Make it Happen, Make it Makati" campaign.

The amount, about 95% to be shouldered by Ayala Land, is about a third of the company's total budget for the period, President Antonino Aquino said. Ayala Land's total budget this year, covering construction and acquisitions, is P37 billion, more than a fifth over last year's.

The purpose is to create "opportunities for all" to live, shop and be entertained and work in Makati, Meann Dy, head of strategic land banking, said at a briefing.

Aside from new buildings, part of the plan is extension and improvement of elevated walkways and pedestrian underpasses, she said. Some walkways will have retail space. Underpasses will have exhibits.

"The city of the future is not about cars, it's about pedestrianization," Dy said.

Ayala and Macea are also in talks with the Department of Transportation and Communication regarding a bus rapid transit system that will run the length of Ayala Avenue from Edsa to the former Santa Ana racetrack.

Ayala Land last year agreed to develop the 21-hectare property, with owner Philippine Racing Club Inc., into one of the six districts, focused on entertainment. Dy said talks include where to relocate jeepneys that will be displaced by the system.

The other districts are Ayala Center, the central business district, Ayala Triangle, Makati North and Makati South. Makati North is the area that includes the Convergys, People Support and Solaris buildings. Makati South will be a transport hub on Edsa corner Ayala, including the current site of a Shell station.

"There will be a meeting of minds," Dy said. The BRT is planned to include stops along the Philippine National Railways' Manila line and the LRT-1 on Taft, she said. In a BRT system, buses on a dedicated lane function like a commuter train, with timed stops at specified locations. It's estimated to cost a 10th of a commuter train.

Ayala Land said 200 stores will open in Glorietta 1 and 2 by October, and the malls will be fully open before Christmas, five years after a blast of still-disputed origin prompted the company to demolish and redevelop them. The stores will include a "flagship" National Bookstore, the company said.

Ayala Land said it will launch the "Make it Happen, Make it Makati" slogan and campaign by mid-year, including mobile apps, a website and merchandise such as mugs.
