Green haven in Global City

A bit of green in the neighborhood is always a plus — it provides rest for the eyes from the monotony of the concrete jungle, ensures a bit of quiet, and it allows us to connect with nature even as we live in the middle of the city.

Many studies have revealed that greenery does more than just lend aesthetic value to a neighborhood, it has real effects on physical and mental health. Real estate Ph developers like Alveo Land Corp. is aware if this and brings a green design to the overall masterplan of Two Serendra.

"Green spaces in a city such as Metro Manila are not easy to find and come at a great premium," said Jennylle Tupaz, Project Development Group Head of Alveo Land. "And this is the concept that Two Serendra is anchored on."

As the benchmark for innovation by Ayala Land, Alveo Land is known for transforming a 12-hectare estate at the Bonifacio Global City into a suburban enclave that features expansive green spaces.

Taking the bold step of setting aside 65 percent of the entire development to green spaces, this project offers a rare suburban experience within a city. And the newest addition to the landscape.

The Meranti, is in a position to enjoy its benefits. Recognized as a home that celebrates the diverse passions of its future residents, the 45-story highrise extends the ideals of green spaces within the third tower.

The Tropical Garden, which features a manicured courtyard for celebrations and The Stellar Peak, a landscaped rooftop deck for intimate gatherings, supports the advantages of green, open spaces within The Meranti.
