And now it is gone..... an icon from the golden era.

Manage to stay with it 3x and the last one was just before it will be demolished. Most of the hotel parts (doors, lampshades, etc. can now be found in some HMR items)

Our wedding reception was held there. We also stayed there before it closed down.

I was told na kaya jollyjeep ang tawag sa mga kainan sa side streets ng Ayala CBD is because before they were actually jeepneys that double as food stalls. Is it true?

[_Qwerty_]

yes a lot of them were owner type jeepneys and they will just park on the side streets..

Yes. These jeepney will park at the side of the road and wait for customers. Usually lunch time dati. Until they were institutionalizednand regulated by MACEA and MAPA.

The jepneys are still being used to deliver food from their kitchen to jollijeep but most evolved and now use hilux

There are places I'll remember

All my life, though some have changed

Some for better, not forever

Some have gone, and some remain

All these places had their moments...

Yes bro.,- the more I hum it, the more I fall in love with the song...

That's why a visit to Strawberry Fields is a must whenever I am in the area.. - even if I have to walk for miles - one time- in a very chilly weather...

We're a middle class family that likes food lang. Weren't you working in the mid 80s na? hahaha. Peace! Aliw lang talaga that they had real jeepneys in the hotel.

Highway 54 (aka edsa) back in the late 1950s




btw, edsa was originally named highway 54 because it was 54 meters wide & it was completed in 1954. That's what i read anyway. [emoji4]

How does this spot look now?

[bugsmobile]

Hmm based on the directions, maybe that pic is EDSA north bound near Ayala Ave?

[baludoy]

Based on the street signs in the pic, i believe this is now the edsa-buendia intersection since ayala ave then was a runway.

I may be mistaken though.

do what you gotta do so you can do what you wanna do
