Green living at Manhattan Garden City
Megaworld Corporation, the top residential condominium and business process outsourcing (BPO) office buildings developer, will put nature’s haven in the center of the congested metropolis through its newest project, Manhattan Parkview Residence in Manhattan Garden City (MGC),
Manhattan Parkview will be the second set of condominium towers to rise in MGC after the highly successful three towers of Manhattan Parkway Residence. Strategically located in the
Manhattan Parkview’s three towers will underscore the nature concept. Its outdoor development plan will feature a walkable, interconnected area and open spaces covered by greens.
“Many of us desire to live in a place that provides a natural relief from the business of life, a softening, outdoor sanctuary where we can rest and rejuvenate,” said Megaworld Central Properties Inc. president Anthony Charlemagne Yu. “Manhattan Parkview will give a nature park experience through its tropical plants, large foliage, wild flowers, accents, and water features.”

Amid fresher air and greenery, MGC residents can move in greater speed and comfort as well to the capital’s commercial areas, premier universities, and business districts through a grand transfer pavilion that gives access to the LRT and MRT.

It will be connected to all spokes of the metro yet complete and self-sustaining. It is in the same complex as innumerable establishments that offer casual dining, shopping, and entertainment.
The Manhattan Garden City showroom and its elegantly appointed model units is conveniently located at the 3rd level of Gateway Mall. Call 810-3333 or email [email protected] to make a viewing appointment. You may also check out www.themanhattangardencity.com.
