Megaworld and Araneta groups join forces to give birth to a new city
Megaworld Corporation and the Araneta Group have joined forces to give birth to a new city - Manhattan Garden City (MGC), the first garden-inspired and transit oriented community slated to rise at the Araneta Center in Cubao, Quezon City.
Created after Manhattan City in New York, the new city is a unique vertical village inspired by the Gateway mall’s floating interior garden referred to as “oasis.” As such, it promises to bring together peaceful, green living and the urban shopping-entertainment experience in its prime five-hectare master-planned development.
This new urban address composed of four phases—Manhattan Parkway, Manhattan Parkview, Manhattan Plaza and Manhattan Heights—will have a total of 20 soaring towers, all providing beautiful views of lush scenery and vibrant streetscape of Araneta Center, its vicinity and beyond.
Transport Oriented Development
As the first transit-oriented community, Manhattan Garden City is linked to both MRT-3 and LRT-2 Cubao stations hence, it can boast of being literally just minutes away from every place in Metro Manila in whatever direction.
Interconnecting MGC’s 20 condominium towers to the MRT-3 and LRT-2 Stations is a 729 meter garden walkway through which residents may tread on their way to work or school.
Through these elevated walkways, residents will be literally transported from their home to the doorstep of world-renowned Araneta Coliseum, and to Gateway Mall, the newest upscale shopping center. The rest of Araneta Center’s retail hubs such as Rustan’s, SM Cubao, Shopwise, Ali Mall, and Farmer’s Plaza are also within comfortable walking distance.
A Garden for a Home
With Manhattan Garden City (MGC), a garden-inspired community that offers a glimpse of nature’s most splendid gifts is at hand.
Rising at the country’s first leisure and lifestyle complex, this project features a hectare of lush landscapes that will make one take in a breath-taking environment in the comforts of their home.
A scenic fountain plaza fronting terraced residences will welcome residents to a completely different sense of abode. Surely, MGC will be a slice of paradise in the city.
At MGC, everything is designed to please the eye and excite the senses. As a resident, you can ease your exhaustion as you come home to a luxuriously decorated home; savor the fresh air as you traverse The Podium—the fourth level, 729-meter stretch of green in between each tower; and take in the colors of nature’s beauty as you get a glimpse of the orange sunsets and sunrise at the Manila Bay. From your units’ windows, you may also devour multicolor lights that will illumine MGC’s towers, providing breathtaking backdrops for your nightcaps.
Amenities to Suit your Lifestyle
This high-rise community can sustain itself. A plethora of shops and restaurants are to be located on the ground floor, while parking areas are at the basement, second and third levels.
To satisfy varied lifestyles, each residential block caters to different recreational and sporting pursuits, providing an array of facilities for either active or contemplative activities. Feel totally at home and take your pick in active, semi-active, passive or semi-passive zone. Get physical in the active and semi-active zones or chill out on a picnic to savor nature at the passive or semi-passive zones. The choice is absolutely yours.
Quality Lifestyle
As it is situated in this recently revived shopping, dining and entertainment hub, quality lifestyles await those who will chose to live here.
With the Gateway Mall just a few blocks away, you may relax by pampering yourself in a spa or watching a movie to ease a day of work. A garden of chic boutique and specialty stores will also be completely accessible to residents of all 20 towers, giving in to the simple pleasures of those who love to shop. Should you feel lazy to cook, you may also pig out in the dining areas that abound the vicinity.
Everybody dreams of escaping the city and living in paradise—an immaculate setting where your senses are awakened. At MGC, your eyes feast on the picturesque views of pockets of nature, your ears delight in the musical orchestration of silence, your nose takes pleasure in the scent of trees and flowers-infused air. Combine this sensual experience with the convenient lifestyle of condo dwelling and the sights and sound of a city that never sleeps, what else can one ask for?
Today, MGC’s two residential blocks – the three tower Manhattan Parkway and the three tower Manhattan Parkview – now offers a one-of-a-kind mobile way of living that is completely enthralling. So live, shop and move like never before. With Manhattan Garden City, you may now own a lifestyle that you truly deserve!
Manhattan Garden City. The new city where you can “live, shop and move like never before.”
