Condo for Rent in Rockwell Center, Makati

Makati, as it is often said, is home to some of the best mixed-use real estate developments in the Philippines. What perhaps best exemplifies this assertion is the Makati central business district (CBD) itself, a master-planned estate conceptualized and developed by the Ayala family. What started as a marshland during the Spanish times, this area evolved to become the Philippines’ first—and during that time, only—airport, and then eventually become the country’s foremost financial and business hub.

It is not surprising that other areas in Makati have been converted and redeveloped in recent years, in the hope of duplicating what the Makati CBD has achieved. One of these areas is Rockwell Center, the flagship project of Lopez-owned Rockwell Land. A 15-5-hectare, high-end mixed-use development, most people are unaware that the place where Rockwell Center sits used to be a thermal power plant, which is a testament to the developer’s master-planning genius (it was designed by no less than Chicago-based architectural firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill). Today, the estate is home to some of Makati’s most luxurious condo towers; the Rockwell Club, the Power Plant Mall, the Ateneo Graduate School of Business, and at least three office towers (with more in the pipeline). Its leafy, serene ambiance is also one of the reasons why many families, especially expats, prefer to live in Rockwell Center. Rockwell is well-loved by everyone even by visitors from other nearby cities like Quezon City, Pasig, Mandaluyong, and Taguig, and of course, the tourists.
