Megaworld Lifestyle Malls, the retail and commercial arm of property giant Megaworld, is unveiling its redesigned masterplan for Northill Parade, its retail and commercial development set to rise within the 53-hectare Northill Gateway township along the Bacolod-Silay Airport Access Road.

The 2.4-hectare Northill Parade is a free-standing retail development concept that features a total leasable area 1.1-hectares. Aside from retail and dining establishments, the remainder of the space will be allotted to open spaces, parking, and landscaped pathways. Northill Parade forms part of the 7.5-hectare mixed-use retail and leisure complex inside Megaworld's Northill Gateway township.

"We are excited to introduce Northill Parade as our redesigned commercial development in Northill Gateway. This free-standing commercial concept is similar to the stopovers in the United States located along highways going to and from the airport. Aside from serving guests and tourists driving along the Bacolod-Silay Airport Access Road, Northill Parade will also offer great convenience to residents of Forbes Hill, Fountain Grove, and other nearby villages," says Graham Coates, head of Megaworld Lifestyle Malls.

Among the first tenants that will soon have free-standing restaurant outlets each in Northill Parade include five first-in-Bacolod international casual dining brands from The Bistro Grou. These brands include Denny's, TGI Friday's Randy's Donuts, Texas Roadhouse, and Olive Garden. This will be the first branches of Randy's Donuts and Olive Garden outside of Metro Manila, with the upcoming Randy's Donuts establishment also featuring a dedicated drive-thru lane.
