just wondering why intercon hotel pic is included here. its location is in makati.

***Sinjin P.*** · January 6th, 2006, 02:46 PM

Oh thanks for correcting me. Really? Doesn't it have a branch in Manila City? I included that because the pic caption says "Hotel Intercontinental Manila, Manila City". Thanks again

JustHorace · January 6th, 2006, 03:25 PM

LOL...Right, Intercon is in Makati. Anyway, speaking about hotels, it's just too sad that Manila has been losing its famous hotels, namely the Sheraton (still there, different operator), Hilton (same thing), Holiday Inn (t'was the Hilton and now the Pavilion), and of course, the Manila Hotel (still there getting uglier each year).

Anyway, it's already edited now

That last Binondo picture looks like Chinatown in New York. You can even see that the car has Connecticut license plates. And Manila doesn't have those kinds of coin-op parking meters.

It is in New York!! I also see those parking meters as well. Its probably in Flushing, Elmhurst or along Canal Street.

^ That's right... I was trying to place it in Manhattan but that lowrise in the back didn't belong. It's definitely Flushing--- one of my favorite places on earth. It's like going to Hong Kong in New York.

Askal82 · January 6th, 2006, 09:08 PM

I live in Elmhurst. where do u live?

bagel · January 6th, 2006, 09:18 PM

^I'm live in California now. But I used to live in Elmhurst (Elbertson St by Whitney) and then in Jackson Heights.

Askal82 · January 6th, 2006, 09:22 PM

OH yeah thats right, I remembered. My bad. hehehe. There are also many Filipinos along those places, particularly along roosevelt and woodside.
