A new business district in Taguig City will soon rise under a partnership between Gokongwei’s Robinsons Land Corp. (RLC) and the state-run Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA).
RLC informed the local bourse on Friday that the plan, dubbed the Bonifacio Capital District, will usher in an elevated urban living in Metro Manila — combining residential, commercial, office, hotel, and recreational spaces into a 61,761-square meter community.
“The Bonifacio Capital District project embodies this aspiration, and we are excited to contribute to the growth and development of this vibrant area,” RLC senior vice president and BU general manager Maybelle V. Aragon-GoBio said.
RLC, however, did not disclose additional information about the plan such as the capital investments it will entail and the official start of the development.
The Bonifacio Capital District will be adjacent to the New Senate Building now under construction as and the Lawton station of the Metro Manila Subway Project.
Running perpendicular to Chino Roces Avenue Extension, Bonifacio South Main Boulevard will serve as the northern boundary of the property development.
