The embo barangays are NOT happy to be part of Taguig city. Honestly, it's the low income barangays (mostly district 2 where embos belong) that benefit a lot from the Makati LGU.
I've ALWAYS called BGC Makati because I grew up with BGC (then the Fort) as part of Makati. I found it weird that BGC is in the middle of Makati, so now they also made the embo barangays are part of Taguig, but the residents are resisting it.

BGC: History in the Making - Bonifacio Global Realty
Land Development
After the Martial Law era, the new President, Corazon Aquino, established what is to be called the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA). This department is set to transform previous military bases to be used by civilians. It was during the term of the succeeding presidency of Fidel V. Ramos that the land was successfully bid to Bonifacio Land Corporation led by Metro Pacific to develop the area. Ayala Land Inc and Evergreen Holdings of the Campos Group were able to buy a stake from BLDC to be able to control and make the master plan in 2003 to form the Fort Bonifacio Development Corporation.
Developments by Area
Three top of the line residential buildings in BGC were Pacific Plaza (2000) by Metro Pacific, Regent Parkway (2002) by Daiichi Properties, and Essensa East Forbes (2001) by Century Properties Group. They were the first buildings to be erected after the inception of Bonifacio Global City. Pacific Plaza stands next to the infamous Manila Golf Club, while Essensa East Forbes and Regent Parkway are adjacent to the Manila American Cemetery & Memorial.
Ayala Land Inc
Ayala Land, which includes Ayala Land Premiere, Alveo Land Corp., and Avida Land Corp, developed the master plan for the entire BGC and was able to integrate several infrastructures, namely, Serendra (2004), Market Market (2003), Bonifacio High Street (2007), High Street Central (2012), and Central Square (2014).
Burgos Circle
This area is mostly known for its iconic Metal Tree at the center of the circle. However, this is also the reason why BGC remains to date as flood-free. Former Public Works and Highways Secretary Rogelio Singson helped design the 22 million liter catchment basin, which serves as a temporary cistern and then later pumped out along creeks, beneath the circle. Adjacent to the circle is a five-hectare development of Megaworld Corp, which includes Forbeswood Heights (2007), Forbeswood Parklane (2010), The Bellagio Towers (2009), and 8 Forbestown Road (2014).
On the other side of the circle is another part of the Crescent Park West and lies several buildings including Bonifacio Ridge (2004), Fort Palm Spring (2009) and several G&W architects buildings like Grand Hamptons (2007), Sapphire and Blue Sapphire (2010), Crescent Park Residences (2011).

^ ah ganun Pala
Still can't recall where we shot those antique guns though. All I remember is we hiked down a steep hill where we passed by an informal settlement filled w/ people laughingly amused at all those "privileged" kids complaining about the dust and the heat.
