The Stratford Residences: A luxurious skyscraper built to withstand natural calamities

MANILA, Philippines - Picar Development, the developer of Picar Place, the new luxury lifestyle hub in Makati, has anticipated natural occurrences like quakes and strong winds from the time they started envisioning the company’s flagship residential project, The Stratford Residences.

Seventy-four floor-high with nine basement levels, The Stratford Residences is a staggering achievement and a man-made sight to behold. Bar none, it is the tallest residential tower in the metro and it correspondingly ups the ante for Makati living by fusing the power of state-of-the-art technology into a luxurious residential skyscraper.
