Crown Asia Residences Wack Wack: A heritage redefined through world-class master-planning

MANILA, Philippines - By preserving the rich heritage of the famous Laurel Mansion, Crown Asia Residences Wack Wack gives homeowners a satisfying option to enjoy comfortable living at its finest. A classy affair Last July 28, Vista Residences, the condominium arm of one of the country’s leading real estate developers in the country, Vista Land, unveiled its latest project: a twotower mixed-use property that will soon illuminate a busy corner of Shaw Blvd. Crown Asia Residences Wack Wack is an expertly master-planned community that takes inspiration from the lush heritage of the Laurel Mansion, which will also serve as the grand lobby and commercial area of the property.

The launch, held at the actual Laurel Mansion, was an evening that evoked the property’s classic elegance and was attended by Ambassador Jose Macario Laurel IV, Crown Asia Residences’ management and marketing teams, invited guests and the media.

Providing entertainment for the elegant affair was local vocal group, The Company. As an added highlight for the night’s fête, a section of the mansion’s second floor served as a tender tribute to the Laurel family, where guests viewed décor and other mementos that were originally displayed in the house. No. 515 Shaw Blvd. For 51 years, No. 515 Shaw Blvd. was known for the illustrious white mansion that had been home to one of the country’s most well-regarded families.

Once the home of former President Jose P. Laurel, the spacious two-storey home was witness to a lot of grand parties, celebrations, and important events, particularly the signing of the Laurel-Langley Agreement of 1956, which extended parity rights to Americans. Of course, just like any gracious host, Laurel hosted a wonderful luncheon in honor of James Langley, and the momentous event. Aside from being highly sociable, Laurel was also known for his love of golf, which prompted him to choose a place that would make him close to one of the world’s best golf courses, the Wack Wack Golf and Country Club.

The famous Laurel Mansion itself occupies 1,000 square meters of the total 6,000 square-meter land area of the whole property, which provides enough room for Crown Asia Residences to re-develop it as its latest achievement, Crown Asia Residences Wack Wack.
