YouTube Video of Twist n' Shout Roller Coaster at Great World of Fun, Sta. Lucia East Grand Mall. It is one of the last surviving mall indoor roller coasters in the Philippines. Festival Mall Alabang is another mall with an indoor roller coaster at X-Site which is claimed to be the largest indoor roller coaster here in the Philippines.

Greenhills, taken earlier today (09/25/2022) - Part 1

O-Square 1

- Mistulang ghost town na talaga ang 2nd floor nito. And parang nag-downsize yata ang Starbucks dito. I don't remember na ganyang kaliit ang 2nd floor, andyan ako every Wednesday night for a few months before the pandemic.

O-Square 2

Boarded up na yung mga supposed restos sa 2nd floor pag-akyat ng escalator.
I wonder if may plan na gawan din ng walkway papuntang tiangge area.
And kanina ko lang napansin na sarado na pala ang Macao Imperial Tea dito, so doon na lang yata siya sa V-Mall nag-o-operate.

Unimart

V-Mall

- Bukas na pala lahat ng accessways papuntang tiangge area. Yung accessway na lang pa-Unimart/future expansion ang kulang.

- Demolished na yung nagsilbing accessway sa main tiangge area from O-Square papuntang chapel/V-Mall. They created a temporary path beside it na tatagos na doon sa gilid ng chapel.

Portofino Alabang: Luxury lifestyle and modern comforts in the South of Manila

For many people, a perfect location means being close to infrastructure that can provide quick access to metropolitan areas.

Yung lupa sa likod mukhang magiging expansion siguro ng mall. May bridge na papunta doon saka cleared na yung lupa. I wonder what they're planning to do there.

None

The vacant spaces sa fourth floor garden restaurants remain vacant, snack joints sa cinema area no updates as well, Ma Chicken Mami House, Jamaican Patty, Persian Ave, Famous Amos, DQ, and Potato Corner are still the only ones open, El Pollo Loco hasn't opened yet...

“It’s clear that one store alone will not be enough. The Pasay City store is the beginning for Ikea in the Philippines. There’s the possibility of more stores to come. It’s just a matter of time,” Ikea Philippines manager Georg Platzer told reporters on the sidelines of a seminar organized by the European Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines (ECCP).

He said more stores are certainly needed in Metro Manila alone given the metropolis’ big and growing market. “So we need to have a second and maybe even a third store in Metro Manila to provide the needs of the growing number of consumers,”Platzer said.

Hope they push through with the SM Fairview branch, or at least anywhere in the north of MM.

Hopefully sa South NCR if they will veer away beside an SM mall, could be ideal within Filinvest City Alabang so that it will be centrally accessible to Laguna, Cavite and Batangas. If sa Southmall kasi parang sa Cavite lang malapit and traffic pa madalas sa narrow na national road dun.And most likely na matutuloy ang PNR - South Commuter line, so its a plus factor if they locate in Alabang.

also SM Southmall will be a tight squeeze for them me thinks

compared to Fairview. Filinvest is a good choice, lots of vacant spaces, they could target other existing townships/estates as well like Southwoods or Nuvali. (but that's for the other thread now 🤭). Space is definitely a huge priority for IKEA

Aside from Filinvest City, methinks somewhere in Daang Hari would be a good option sa magiging site ng IKEA sa south. Mukhang may large tract of [vacant] land pa naman sa either Vermosa or Villar City (or whatever their latest name is 😛). Baka pahirapan lang sa latter dahil kakalabanin ang AllHome hehehehe.

For central/eastern Metro, somewhere in C5 perhaps para hindi naman lahat ng grasya sinalo na ng BGC. 🤭 If ever I'd personally prefer Arcovia, though baka pwede rin sa Bridgetowne East or Parklinks. In any case, magandang pang-promote din eto ng estates nila if ever.

Okay ako sa Bridge Town East. Kasi taga Rizal ako so pabor sa mga taga East Pasig & Rizal Area hehe. Ngayon kasi is IKEA only exclusive to SM or are they allowed to open in other competitors of SM?

Hindi pala exclusive ang partnership ng IKEA at SM?

Sa North, pwede na sa SM Fairview dahil malaki pa ang parking lot sa harap ng Annex 3. Sa East naman, baka pwede sa SM Marikina. But they have to make do with a smaller store there.

Maybe, it wouldn't have to be as big as the Ikea Square in SM-MoA but the vast open spaces for parking and steel parking structure within Festival Alabang can still accomodate an Ikea store that can be an ideal component of further expansion of FA into a mixed-use complex. The new parks in Filinvest City will also be a complement for an Ikea branch in NCR - South.

I think Megamall will be the second IKEA branch because of the recent posts about IKEA and Megatrade Hall. Then the third would be on SM Fairview or pagsisiksikan nila sa SM North Edsa yung third branch.
