Zitan: The heart of a walkable district
The ideal city is one where life may be fast-paced, but people and nature’s wellbeing are still taken care of. Walking is the perfect past-time as well as the primary mode to get to nearby essential destinations for work, dining, leisure, or shopping.
One example of this is Greenfield District in Mandaluyong. To be technologically advanced, smartly connected via tree- lined pathways, and eco- efficient are at the pillars of this master-planned community’s development principles.
At the heart of the district’s walkable city is Zitan, an innovative, high- rise residential tower that Equus Property Venture, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Greenfield Development Corporation (GDC), developed with the vision for it to be a prime example of a transit-oriented development.
Mornings can be spent brisk walking, jogging, running or bicycling at Greenfield District. Breakfast or brunch can be easily decided upon in one of the restaurants or cafes all around. In fact, residents of the condo can go to The Hub or at The Portal and have their pick of the dining experience of the day.
To name a few of the restaurants, The Hub caters to the more refined preference such as seen at Blackwood Bistro, Kanin Club, Cafe Breton, Brown’s Gourmet, and Ramen Bar; The Portal, meanwhile, exhibits the more popular and familiar dining establishments like Yellow Cab, Starbucks, Pancake House and Wendy’s.
Otherwise, end of weekdays or weekend afternoons can be spent on a game of frisbee at the Central Park, while the others watch by the group’s picnic spot at the huge pocket of green. At the Park, food lovers can also indulge at the weekend food markets and be entertained by live bands and various events that are enjoyed by both residents and the guests who come all the way from around the metro to visit.
The condo also provides a direct link to the Shaw Boulevard station of the Mass Railway Transit (MRT). The walk is relatively a short one as well owing to the condo’s strategic location near the corner of EDSA and Shaw Boulevard. Hence, commuting around Metro Manila is faster and more secured.
