The 70 hectares will vastly improve the already impressive appointments of the residential enclave with its modern amenities and master-planned community. The addition guaranteed a multi-purpose clubhouse and sports complex, basketball and tennis courts, swimming pool and gym for men and women for the active movers of Batangas. A wide 12-meter avenue, 8-meter wide secondary streets, concrete curbs and gutters addresses the need to provide for the expected bigger community. "The city streets are gradually filling up with traffic, what with Batangas residents and their guests going about their businesses more frequently, and more people from elsewhere relocating to the city. Although Batangas is far from reaching the point of congestion, Manila has grown to and the city fathers will definitely be zealous about retaining open spaces and wider thoroughfares, we felt we should hedge against the urban crawl with a leisurely pace within our walls. Our wider roads are intended to address any traffic problems we may expect with more people setting up homes at Greenwoods," said Exequiel Robles, president of Sta. Lucia Realty.
More importantly, Greenwoods has a play and bicycle-friendly environment, which means more open spaces, landscaping, sidewalks, parks and common gardens. "Space is precious within and outside the home and we intend to provide for this real need which is often sacrificed to maximize land use and by virtue of economy. Batangas’ growth is inevitable given the hardiness of its people. It’s about time, we felt, that most provinces like Batangas come into their own and capitalize on their own riches to offer the rest of the country and the world. We’d like to think we are partners in that growth community-wise. If we’re providing them big rewards for their toil by way of satisfying their housing needs, we feel we’ve accomplished much as a developer. We’re willing to add some more hectares to provide them more value for their hard-earned money. Its an investment that’s bound to benefit everyone all around," said Robles.
