sitting at the heart of Araneta Center Cubao, the premier commercial center in Quezon City. Manhattan Garden City sits at the heart of Araneta Center in Cubao, the premier commercial center in Quezon City. When Megaworld launched Manhattan Garden City in 2006, the company had in mind a residential project that would seamlessly integrate with the mass-transit system in the metropolis. Manhattan Gar
den City thus became the very first transit-oriented development in the country. It is also Megaworld’s contribution to the local government’s redevelopment plan for Araneta Center, the premier commercial center in Quezon City back in the 60s and 70s. The 5.7-hectare Manhattan Garden City is located at the heart of Araneta Center and is considered the largest single residential development in the country with total units of about 9,000 upon completion. The 720-meter elevated garden walkway connects the complex’s 20 towers and is also considered a first in local real estate development. Providing more convenience to residents is the City’s direct link to the Light Rail Transit 2 and Metro Rail Transit 3 systems. The first residential phase of the project, the three-tower Manhattan Parkway, has been sold out, as has the first tower of the much-awaited Manhattan Parkview Residences. Towers 2 and 3 of the project are also almost sold out. The construction of Manhattan Heights, the latest phase of Manhattan Garden City, is also underway. It will have four new towers with around 1,590 units. The Manhattan Garden City is poised to help bring back the former glory of Araneta Center. Soon, the Center will once again be an important center of activity in the Quezon City area.
