[!]{.-attachment}PHOTO: DPWH Remember the BGC-Ortigas Center Link Road Project? Part of it is the fancy new Santa Monica-Lawton Bridge, also known as the BGC-Ortigas Bridge, which Bonifacio Global City regulars have been looking forward to for the past couple of years. Last we saw, the two sides of the infrastructure project were finally about to meet—and this was back in August 2020. Well, the “superstructure,” as the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) is calling it, is about to cross another milestone: The agency says that it is targeting a May 2021 partial opening for the new BGC-Ortigas bridge. The DPWH says that the structure itself is already completed, but that some construction works still have to be accomplished. The agency is excited, though, for the partial opening of the four-lane, two-way bridge. Look: https://www.facebook.com/dpwhph/?ref=nf&hc_ref=ARRBXnlTEeyfvn5MUpUIDu_ACYREguYgq4n9yiV2muhEu4oKemfT90H1P_BmgMGqgs4 The entire BGC-Ortigas Center Link Road Project’s completion is set for September 2021. Once this is finished, travel times between Pasig City, Mandaluyong City, and Taguig are expected to be reduced. Traffic along EDSA and C5 will supposedly benefit from the project’s completion as well. Frankly, 2021 is shaping up to be one hell of a year for local infrastructure. And to think the BGC-Ortigas bridge is just one of nine new bridges expected to decongest Metro Manila traffic. What other projects are you looking forward to seeing completed?

[!]{.-attachment}The MMDA says the final date of the Estrella-Pantaleon bridge closure is January 19 MANILA, Philippines — The Department of Public Works and Highways is fasttracking work on the Estrella-Pantaleon Bridge to complete the P1.46-billion project by June, DPWH Mark Villar said yesterday. He said that the bridge, which was supposed to have been completed in December 2020, is now 86 percent complete. “With just a few more days to fully complete the new Estrella-Pantaleon Bridge, we are mindful that a single case of COVID-19 in the project can lead to an interruption, if not total work stoppage,” Villar said. Villar issued revised guidelines in Department Order 30 for the implementation of infrastructure projects, both public and private, during a public health crisis under various levels of quarantine. Last Monday, DPWH Undersecretary for Unified Project Management Office Operations Emil Sadain and UPMO Roads Management Cluster 1 project manager Benjamin Bautista checked the physical progress of the project and contractor China Road and Bridge Corp.’s compliance with protocols that cover prevention, detection and rapid response to maintain construction work continuity as workers who have been living or confined in the on-site or off-site barracks resume work after the Lenten break. The new 506-linear meter bridge would connect Estrella street in Makati to Barangka Drive in Mandaluyong and help decongest EDSA of traffic. It can accommodate 50,000 vehicles per day and cut travel time between the two cities to 12 minutes, the DPWH said.

There’s no shortage of office-based jobs in Metro Manila, but most of them can be found in business hubs like Ortigas, Makati, and Bonifacio Global City (BGC). Many employees may want to take up residence near their workplace, so they look for apartments in or around these areas. While that could be good in some cases, finding condos in Mandaluyong like Flair Towers offers plenty of advantages for the average office worker in Metro Manila. Sure, minimizing stress should be a priority, but there are plenty of other ways to do that aside from minimizing commute time. Dansalan Gardens and other Mandaluyong properties may not be so close, but such locations offer plenty of other benefits. Real-Estate Realities [!]{.-attachment}Photo courtesy of Monam via Pixabay You don’t need a degree in economics to know that the more demand there is for something, the more it’ll cost. Central business hubs have a lot of premium office space, so a lot of companies, especially foreign ones, put in bids to set up shop there. Naturally, that pushes office rents up, but residential rates are affected as well. According to Numbeo, an online cost-of-living comparison site, a one-bedroom apartment rent costs Php 23,750 per month on average in Taguig’s business district; in Makati’s central business district (CBD), it’s around Php 32,301 monthly. In Mandaluyong, monthly rent for a one-bedroom unit averages at a more reasonable Php 18,166. What about the average monthly rent for three-bedroom units? It’s Php 47,500 in Taguig’s business district, Php 117,500 in Makati CBD, and Php 30,666 in Mandaluyong. So living close to offices in Makati and Taguig can save you time, but ask yourself – can you afford it? A Good Middle Ground [!]{.-attachment}Photo courtesy of qimono via Pixabay You never know what life can bring. The job you have today may not be the one you have tomorrow. Maybe you’ll find later on that you’re meant to be doing something else, or you just find a better opportunity somewhere else. That’s not to mention new friendships and other relationships that you’ll build and want to sustain outside of work. So while planning around your current office situation isn’t necessarily bad, you may want to look at the big picture and leave yourself open to new possibilities. That’s what makes living in Mandaluyong so ideal; it’s just a few minutes’ commute from office districts such as BGC, Makati, and Ortigas. If you look at Dansalan Gardens, for example, you’ll find it is just 4.8 kilometers from Makati CBD (and just a little further from BGC), meaning that the commute shouldn’t take more than 30 minutes. From Ortigas Center, it’s just 3.6 kilometers away – an even shorter trip. Flair Towers, another DMCI Homes development, is similarly close to all those areas. Dress Better for Success [!]{.-attachment}Photo courtesy of Unsplash via Pixabay What can you get when you have a short commute and more affordable rent? A better look. Sure, a lot of offices are easing up on their dress codes; a lot of employees can now go to work with just jeans, t-shirts, hoodies, and sneakers. Going for a more professional style certainly takes more work, but it has clear career benefits. By making an effort to put on a formal dress shirt or blouse, business slacks, and leather shoes, you signal that you know how to take things seriously. Of course, you can also go for something more comfortable; the point is to groom and style yourself so that you feel relaxed while still considering what’s appropriate for the situation. With more time in your day and more disposable income going into your pocket, you can invest a little more in the details. Shop Till You Drop [!]{.-attachment}Photo courtesy of Unsplash via Pixabay Of course, good fashion sense isn’t just a career edge. It can also be a gateway to personal growth and social connections. People with a keen sense of style tend to be more confident, more sophisticated and socially aware, and are noticed more (in a good way). Expanding your fashion vocabulary beyond “looks good” will also help you strike up conversations with officemates, which is more important than you think. Plus, there’s nothing like a good round of retail therapy to relieve stress. Figures from Numbeo show that jeans, dresses, running shoes, and leather business shoes in Makati and Taguig on average are more expensive than they are in Mandaluyong. So having an affordable condo for rent in Mandaluyong lets people cut back on costs while still occasionally indulging their inner fashionista. Less Stress over Overtime [!]{.-attachment}Photo courtesy of caio_triana via Pixabay A harsh reality of working is that you don’t always have control over your work hours. While more employers are offering flexi-time and work-from-home arrangements, it’s more common to have jobs where people have to change shifts or do overtime. Excessive overtime on its own can be very harmful. When you have a long commute to and from the office, and the money you earn from overtime is not enough to compensate the things you give up, it makes you more stressed and less productive. On the flip side, you may want to accept additional work to earn more, but long travel time limits the number of extra hours you can take on. Renting in Mandaluyong gives you more time to either rest or work more, and any overtime pay you get will be much more worthwhile. Get Recharged and Rejuvenated [!]{.-attachment}Photo courtesy of jackmac34 via Pixabay Getting an affordable condo for rent is good, but scoring one with stress-busting amenities would be a huge bonus. Sleep and shopping sprees aren’t always enough to relieve the pressure that you get from your hectic 9-to-5 job. In Dansalan, garden paths let people shift into a slow, serene pace; they can also take a dip in the leisure pool, or gaze out over the city from the building’s high-rise views. Flair Towers also has jogging paths, gyms, and a lap pool for people to sweat their stress out, along with the same greenery and above-it-all vistas that are a hallmark of DMCI Homes developments. Having all those amenities to help you rest and relax is perfect to recharge your batteries and prepare you for the daily grind. Eat, Play, Love [!]{.-attachment}Photo courtesy of Pexels via Pixabay Should you get bored with the facilities in the condo, there are plenty of other leisure options in the Tiger City. For one thing, Mandaluyong has its fair share of restaurants. Aside from the ones in Megamall and Shangri-La Mall, there are plenty of hole-in-the-wall eating places for to try out. If food trips aren’t your idea of a good time, you can always get together with friends or colleagues to enjoy fun activities. Movie tickets are decently priced in Mandaluyong’s malls, some of which also offer more active options like skating and bowling. Kids-at-heart can have a heart-thumping time at Trampoline Park or Jump Yard, and those looking for a unique bonding experience can take a shot at getting out of Breakout’s famous escape rooms. Whether you’re starting your first job or are already an established working professional, your living conditions will have a huge impact on your ability to do your job. However, that doesn’t mean you should decide where you’ll live just based on your current occupation. Living in or around premium office districts can be great for your career. But with the right DMCI Homes properties, you can strike a better work-life balance. Source: https://leasing.dmcihomes.com/blog/reasons-mandaluyong-work-life-blend/
[!] Mandaluyong City is once again given recognition as a Wealth Center hub thanks to the investments in the city that constantly increases every year. Despite being the second smallest city in Metro Manila, Mandaluyong is one of the most attractive cities to invest both local and foreign businesses. This is due to its strategic location – right in the middle of Metro Manila – and for its business-friendly environment that boasts of low real property taxes. The local government, currently headed by Mayor Menchie Abalos, had previously reduced the number of steps in the application of business permits and licenses. By 2017, it already has over 16,300 business registrations translating to more than P204 billion worth of investments during the first quarter of 2018. The bustling economy of Mandaluyong City can easily seen by the number of manufacturing companies, numerous commercial establishments and residential towers in its jurisdiction. It was once, and still is, branded the City of Malls as seen in the numerous shopping complex around the city but its impressive tax collection and business investment profile has earned it the title “Tiger City of the Philippines.” Mandaluyong City’s excellence in good financial administration and business friendliness and competitiveness were already recognized by the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) through four consecutive Seal of Good Local Governance (SGLG) awards since 2015. Among the local government’s services brought by its good financial housekeeping are the intensified nutrition program “Manda 1000” that ensures the health of pregnant mothers and the first 1,000 days of their babies, the acquisition of various new medical and dental supplies for its city hospital, annual infrastructure programs (roadworks, housing and street lightings), and the allocation of uniforms, footwear and schools supplies of every public elementary and high school student of the city. Proof that the city doesn’t only excel but improves its services every year, Mandaluyong City lives up to its slogan “Gawa, Hindi Salita. Mandaleño Disiplinado.” Source: https://www.manilatimes.net/2019/10/03/supplements/mandaluyong-city-small-city-with-a-bustling-economy/625937/

Supports healthy living The local government in Mandaluyong City encourages its residents to keep a healthy lifestyle.

Who would have thought the exercise can be so much fun? 3.

If you’re planning on moving to Mandaluyong City, you should know several things. One of the major benefits of living in the Tiger City is accessibility. Everything is within reach. The city is home to malls, office spaces, schools, and public transport. From the roof deck, you’d see four cities surrounding you: Makati City, Pasig City, Manila, and San Juan. Living in Mandaluyong City is the perfect definition of being at the heart of Metro Manila. Here are creative ways to explore the charms of Mandaluyong City and enjoy condo living in the city. Walk, walk, walk The horrendous traffic in nearly all parts of the National Capital Region is common knowledge. You can’t use it as an excuse for arriving late to a meeting. If you choose Mandaluyong City, you’d have various modes of transportation to beat your daily time-in. The MRT station is one jeepney ride away, or a few minute walk if you live near EDSA. There are also ferry boats that traverse the Pasig River. If everything else fails, remember that you can always walk. Mandaluyong City is intimately connected to Makati Central Business District (CBD). From Tivoli Garden Residences, you can reach Ayala Avenue via Makati Avenue in 15 minutes by foot. You can walk to J.P. Rizal, Rockwell, or Greenbelt. Get a reliable pair of sneakers and bring a jug of water. Your condo renting guide should include a map of Mandaluyong to know possible routes in and out of the city. Get another degree Mandaluyong City is home to top-notch educational institutions. There are private elementary and high schools and two universities: Rizal Technological University and Jose Rizal University. Your proximity to these schools can open up opportunities for further studies. If you may want to pursue a law degree or a course in astronomy, move into the Tiger City. Live in a condo Looking for properties for rent in Mandaluyong City is not a problem as there is a wide selection of accommodations. There are townhouses, apartments, and lots of condos. The city can very well call itself the “Condo Capital of the Philippines.” The city is home to a growing number of millennials working in Ortigas Center and Makati CBD. This hardworking bunch is always-on-the-go whether in their professional or private lives. Convenience and efficiency are their top considerations when looking for accommodations. Luckily, condo renting answers these unique needs. DMCI Homes’ Flair Towers not only offers the usual condo amenities such as a common lounge and fitness facilities. This condo for rent in Mandaluyong City also has a music room, a jogging path, and swimming pools. Put up a business Mandaluyong City is a gold mine for investment opportunities. According to the World Bank, the city ranks 9th among 25 cities/regions in the country in terms of ease in starting a business. There is a large inventory of office spaces for start-ups as well as real estate projects for investor-lessors. Condo leasing is a big business in any major city in the Philippines. It is a fact that the country is disaster-prone, thus, the high demand for condo renting. With minimal association dues, property owners need not worry about floods destroying their personal belongings or scorching summers resulting in health issues. Condo renting in the Philippines offers peace of mind through state-of-the-art facilities that would otherwise be too costly for house and apartment owners. This business opportunity is even made simpler with the assistance of leasing professionals. The only thing left for the Mandaluyong condo owner to do is to pick up his check! Go out and look up to the sky. As the Tiger City provides everything you need within arm’s reach, there’s no reason for you not to see the outdoors. If you want to enjoy the sun without exposing yourself to pollution, you can stay within your condo community. Dansalan Gardens, a DMCI condo for rent in Mandaluyong, has lots of green open spaces that are too welcoming to refuse. Find inspiration near the koi pond or the landscaped walking paths. Marvel at the clouds and beautiful sunsets while relaxing at the sky lounge. Stir your inner film critic Mandaluyong City is the cradle of cinemas. It caters to various types of movie-goers from different social segments. There’s Star Mall, Robinson’s Place, and Shangri-la Plaza. Megamall and Robinson’s Galleria in Ortigas is also within proximity. If you’re into European and Asian art films, you should catch film festivals in Shangri-la. Artikulo Uno, the geniuses behind the top-grosser historical movie “Heneral Luna,” host film screenings in their office in San Juan, which is walking distance from Shaw Boulevard. Visit unique shops If you’re into vinyl records and other “throwback” items, Mandaluyong City offers several options. Check out Tres Kuleros Records & Dry Goods along Boni Avenue and be overwhelmed at their impressive collection of records. For home decors and accessories for your condo unit, visit Chrysana NEST in Addition Hills. There’s also a line of furniture shops for your interior design needs along Shaw Boulevard. Have a gastronomic adventure Mandaluyong City has a wide array of restaurants, bars, and street food options. Walk around Pioneer in Boni Avenue, and you’ll find grill restaurants, a Persian diner, and lots of Korean cuisine restos. You can’t miss Adelina’s Ham Store at Kalentong Street as it is one of the first food stops in all of Metro Manila. You can stroll along Kapitolyo and find panciterias, Japanese noodle houses, and ihaw-ihaws. If you want some good ‘ol fast food treats, drive along Shaw Boulevard. The choices are endless. Share a cup of coffee. The soul of a city is in its people. Share a cup of cappuccino with a friend and reminisce beautiful memories. Mandaluyong City never sleeps. If the upscale coffee shops are too much for you, you can get your coffee fix from 24/7 restaurants scattered everywhere. Better yet, brew your own caffeine goodness and enjoy it with companions in your condo unit. Shoot a short film Mandaluyong City has its unique charms and undeniable flaws. Well, all places do. The secret is in discovering beauty wherever you may be. You can plan a small project with friends and shoot a short film in different parts of the city. There are empty alleyways near Shaw Boulevard, perfect for an action-drama and a scenic view on the Makati-Mandaluyong Bridge for a tearjerker. Don’t forget to get an aerial shot of this magnificent city. Life in Metro Manila can be stressful. There are traffic, pollution, noise and a lot of distractions. But like any other place, there’s beauty in this urban chaos. It’s just a matter of finding the right place to create your refuge. — Source: https://leasing.dmcihomes.com/blog/condo-living-guide-mandaluyong/ [!]
