Ayala Triangle Gardens towers over open spaces

MANILA, Philippines - An upcoming addition to Ayala Triangle Gardens, a premium office building is set to rise in a central convergence area that is largely enhanced by sprawling greens and open spaces.

Standing at 39 stories, the office building has all the makings of a premier Ayala Land offices development. A marriage of modern architecture and interior design, it allots five levels of the tower to basement parking, four floors to premium retail outlets, and 36 floors to generous office spaces, all with commanding views of the city.

Green building features and practices—a proud trademark of all Ayala Land Inc. undertakings—are ingrained in this stately structure that is working towards an award from LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environment Design), a rating system created by the United States Green Building Council that acknowledges a building’s environment-friendly efforts during and after construction.

Particularly at a time when climate change is more apparent and nature’s resources are slowly being depleted, the landmark destination will have substantial green open spaces and eco-friendly features. The premium office building is set to rise on an 18,150 square meter lot in the corners of Paseo de Roxas and Makati Avenue. Besides an amphitheater, multipurpose hall for special events, and choice restaurants, its immediate neighbor will be the new 24-story, five-star Mandarin Oriental. Together, the projects enhance the landscape of the central business district with a vibrant, sophisticated air.

Interestingly, the upcoming development also promises more open space than ever before. The office building and the Mandarin Oriental are plotted in such a way that the felling of trees is avoided. And even with additional structures in place, the gardens remain a priority of this beloved Makati site. Once finished, the new and improved Ayala Triangle Gardens will allot as much as 60 percent to wide, open spaces for exercise, dog walking, picnics, and other enjoyable leisure activities.

The newest office development of Ayala Land and the Mandarin Oriental hotel at Ayala Triangle Gardens is targeted to be completed in 2020.
