Leading mid-income residential condominium developer Empire East Land Holdings Inc. has simultaneously launched its first three transit-oriented projects in San Lorenzo Place, Makati; Pioneer Woodlands, Mandaluyong; and Little Baguio Terraces, San Juan.
"We are the first developer to launch simultaneously three new projects that are not only strategically located, but more importantly, connected to mass transit systems," Empire East President Anthony Charlemagne Yu said.
San Lorenzo Place has a direct connection to the Magallanes MRT station, while Pioneer Woodlands features a concourse level that connects residents directly to the Boni MRT station. Little Baguio Terraces is easily accessible to both the Gilmore and Ruiz stops of the LRT2.
"This way, our future residents will be connected to all spokes of the metro: the workplace, shopping malls, schools, churches and hospitals," said Yu.
He added that these three projects will further bolster Empire East’s standing as the country’s top mid-income developer, noting that the unit sizes, prices, terms of payment and location are especially geared towards starting families and overseas-based Filipinos.
The three projects give Empire East the distinction of having the highest number of transit-oriented projects for any developer in the country today.
San Lorenzo Place will have four towers with 1- to 3-bedroom units while Pioneer Woodlands will consist of nine residential towers offering studio to 2-bedroom units.
Meanwhile, Empire East will construct six residential towers at Little Baguio Terraces, which offers two- and three-bedroom units.
Yu said Pioneer Woodlands boasts of a strategic location that is midway between the Makati and Ortigas business districts. Bonifacio Global City is also readily accessible.
Meanwhile, Little Baguio Terraces is a short train ride away to the emerging business hub at the Araneta Center. Of course, San Lorenzo Place residents are securely within the country’s premier business district.
