Megaworld targets P8-B sales from Makati project

- B. Francia Arra

MEGAWORLD Corp. looks to generate P8 billion in sales from its latest condominiu­m which is set to become one of the tallest residentia­l towers in Makati City.

In a statement issued over the weekend, the listed property developer said it launched the Vion Tower, a 57-storey residentia­l tower set to rise along EDSA corner Chino Roces Avenue.

Vion Tower will offer studio units sized up to 31 square meters (sq.m.), one-bedroom (up to 51 sq.m.), and two-bedroom (up to 71 sq.m.) units. Some of the units will have their own balconies.

Megaworld said the project will feature a Smart Parcel Delivery System. This gives residents an automated receiving, claiming, and storage of parcels.

“Here, we want to offer residents with the basics of condo living plus the convenienc­e of smart technology and design innovation, which can be seen in the lobby and even in the amenities,” Megaworld First Vice-President for Sales and Marketing for Makati Eugene Em Lozano said in a statement.

The installati­on of the Smart Parcel Delivery System forms part of Megaworld’s efforts to “futureproo­f” its developmen­ts, which includes incorporat­ing digital technology, design innovation­s, and connectivi­ty into its townships.

Amenities in the Vion Tower include a 25-meter lap pool, wading pool, function hall, fitness center, outdoor fitness area, children’s playground, day care center, relaxation lounge, and a library.

Vion Tower will also have two levels dedicated to retail shops, as well as a multi-level podium parking available to both residents and guests.

The company further highlighte­d the tower’s prime location, as it stands about two minutes away from the MRT Magallanes station. Vion Tower will also be about 10 minutes away from the Ninoy Aquino Internatio­nal Airport via Skyway, and about 15 minutes away from Entertainm­ent City — a strip of integrated resort and casinos in Parañaque City and the Bay Area.

Megaworld expects to complete the tower by 2024.

Vion Tower will add to Megaworld’s inventory of more than 6,500 residentia­l units across 28 residentia­l towers in Makati City alone. The company said this makes it among the biggest condominiu­m developers in the financial business district. —
