Was in PH 3 days ago and the last time I was there was in late 2012. Just like BT, I am happy to see the difference in developments.
Eateries like Starbucks, Chinese restaurants, Olives, Brussels Beer, Old Town, Kenny Rogers, Sushi reflect the place is becoming a tourist hub and a place to hang out in the evening. Traders is thriving with customers in the coffee house downstairs. Kerry Group was having a seminar upstairs. The marina is teeming with yachts.
Encorp has completed its carpark floors which is about 6 or 7 floors. Tower 1 & 2 also had its scaffolding up and casted columns to the same floor level as the carpark. The center lift cores are about at level 10 as clearly seen from behind Encorp.
Imperia is almost structurally up for both its towers, Somerset is in the fit out stages. Teega is coming up very fast to about 5 levels for all its 3 towers.
Pinetree is slow and still in the earthworks stage. Alma is in the earthworks stage for its basement.
Overall, it should be good in 3 years time. It maybe a greenfield, but it is definitely up and coming.
