Commonwealth Market Mall opens

-
The Commonwealth Market Mall, located a few hundred meters to the left after the Sandiganbayan and Commission on Audit head office on Commonwealth Ave., opens its doors to the public this March — with the most reasonable prices, the widest array of products, and the cleanest, most organized facilities for the benefit of the consuming public.

Sprawled over more than 2.4 hectares at the National Government Center-Commonwealth Economic Zone, the Commonwealth Market Mall boasts of a state-of-the art sewage treatment plant duly approved by the DENR and LLDA, and an integrated cold storage facility where vendors can maintain their fresh produce in properly chilled temperatures.

To connect the market (which is on the right side of Commonwealth Ave. if going to the Quezon City Memorial Circle) to the heavier populated areas of Payatas, Litex and immediate periphery, the QC government under the indefatigable leadership of Mayor Feliciano Belmonte Jr. and administrator Robert Nacianceno, rushed the completion of an all steel suspended, pedestrian bridgeway in time of the opening of the market — in a record breaking two weeks time! The all steel bridge will conveniently access all vendors and commuting pedestrians and regular shoppers going home to Fairview, Lagro, etc., to the market.

The Commonwealth Market Mall also provides a permanent solution to the daily ordeal of motorists who have to gruel through the blockaded Commonwealth Ave. with the bulk of the vendors from Manggahan joining the original market beneficiaries at the Commonwealth Market Mall, there is synergy, complementation and integration — which not only solves the traffic and peace and order problem: it also now ensures the very financial and economic viability of the most modern market in the Philippines!

The Payatas and Commonwealth residents alone, numbering more than 150,000, comprise the bulk of would be shoppers into these new market, not to mention the radial confluence of buyers from East Ave. the UP area, all the middle and high end subdivisions from Tandang Sora to Batasan Rd., all the way to Fairview, Lagro, and eve Rodriguez (formerly Montalban) Rizal.

The Commonwealth Market Mall is a perfect showcase and example of the dynamic cooperation between the national government, i.e. the Housing and Urban Development Coordinating Council Undersecretary Michael T. Defensor; the Home Guaranty Corp. under Gonzalo Benjamin Bongolan, whose Commonwealth Economic Zone provides housing and the market as the enabling livelihood component; the QC government under Mayor Belmonte, for their social intervention and infrastructure support.
