I thought it was ridiculous to build a condo in Tagaytay kasi kaya nga nagTagaytay for open space and nature. Apparently not.



doc, my Mom told me Pasay Road in Makati used to be houses daw! Hindi ko na naabutan yun



I don't like that high rise condos are too close to residential areas na



Ayala Center Makati talaga pinaka gusto ko kasi it's all there



OT: I clalled it Fort long after they made it BGC LOL. Mahahalata mo yung mga "sinauna" na buildings yung mga midrise lang, up until the 2000s, Pacific lang ang mataas na structure sa Fort. Sa UCC Fort ako nagpupunta when I want to study outside of my home kasi may smoking area sila na aircon I like how there is no traffic, a lot of open space and you can park on the street. Sana nga wag nila gibain yung the Fort kasi yun na lang ang nakatayo na since the 90s.

Isa ako sa unang na sampolan na natanggalan ng plaka kasi iniwan ko lang car ko sa 3rd avenue e sanay ako sa street parking lang

BTW, I find the street names at BGC so confusing. It seems like they patterned it after NY. Up until now I am still not familiar with the street names even if I go there regularly. It is so much easier to remember the street names at Makati CBD (Rufino, Salcedo, Palanca etc) and Ortigas CBD (Emerald, Sapphire, Opal etc) Alam ko lang yung main roads like 32nd st, 5th ave, Rizal drive, supposedly you will be able to work the street names kasi ascending/descending lang naman pero nakakalito pa rin. Baka nagulo nung ginawang Taguig

Cat, the trick is to remember that south to north are streets (starting with 24th/Mckinley Parkway from SM Aura to 40th street where the new BGC/Ortigas bridge starts) and west to east are avenues (starting with 1st where JP Morgan is to 11th where Serendra/Market2 is located). The rest are small lanes and drives but streets and avenues are the major ones.
