The rise of Central Roxas Boulevard: Manila’s modern luxury district
Globally, modern bayside districts have become synonymous with luxury, blending artistic influence, historical significance, and conveniences.
Iconic waterfront destinations such as Sydney Harbour in Australia, The Palm in Dubai, Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong, and the San Francisco Bay Area have emerged as premier destinations, offering breathtaking views, world-class amenities, and a lifestyle of exclusivity.
These coveted locations attract the world’s most discerning investors. With their timeless appeal, these dynamic bayside areas continue to redefine urban living, shaping the future of prime property investments.
Manila’s center of prestige
Among the Philippines’ most distinguished addresses, Central Roxas Boulevard stands as a beacon of prominence.
This historic waterfront has witnessed over a century of grandeur, hosting presidents, popes, foreign dignitaries, and other luminaries. It is also home to some of the country’s most treasured heritage landmarks—the Walled City of Intramuros; San Agustin Church, the oldest church in the Philippines and a Unesco World Heritage Site; Rizal Park; and the National Museum.
In the wake of its evolution and modernization, only a select few high-value properties rise above the rest. And at its forefront is Anchor Land, redefining investment opportunities with groundbreaking, ultra luxury bayside residences.
A landmark unveiling
On Feb. 26, 2025, Anchor Land hosted an intimate gathering at Admiral Grandsuites, offering an exclusive glimpse into the future of bayfront living.
Elite brokers were granted an in-depth look at the meticulous craftsmanship behind this new landmark development while also gaining valuable market perspectives from an impressive lineup of speakers.
The event featured Andoy Beltran, vice president and head of Business Development and Market Education at First Metro Securities Brokerage Corp.; Alejandro ‘Andy’ Manalac, vice president at Creba and co-founder and chair of Havitas Developments Corp.; Architect Aaron Yu of Asya Design Partners; and Elizabeth Ventura, president of Anchor Land.
Anchor Land’s signature brand of luxury
Space is the ultimate luxury, and Anchor Land’s generous, expansive, and sweeping cuts have introduced some of the country’s most capacious and thoughtfully designed residences. Its lifestyle-adaptive configurations are complemented by world-class, “Club-in-a-Condo” amenities, designed for privacy, leisure, and sophistication.
Imagine unwinding in a private spa, hosting elegant gatherings in your own garden, or transforming your yard into a private tennis court. Whether indulging in a round of mahjong in the game room or enjoying five-star leisure facilities, every detail is tailored to further elevate modern luxury.
Anchor Land is bringing this excellence to its soon-to-rise skyscraper. As a stunning new addition to the Admiral Complex, this ultra luxury residential property will offer an unrivaled lifestyle that no other development can offer. Residents will enjoy exceptional white-glove concierge service along with exclusive privileges, including in-room dining, housekeeping, and homeowners-only perks at the award-winning Admiral Hotel.
A modern architectural marvel on the rise
As the highlight of the event, Anchor Land president Beth Ventura officially unveiled The Panorama Manila, a luxurious 53-story residential development poised to become the centerpiece of Central Roxas Boulevard.
Leading its design conceptualization is Asya Design, Anchor Land’s trusted collaborator for over two decades. Like a mirror to the sea, the modern architecture of The Panorama Manila offers residents a 360-degree panoramic escape, immersing them in sight, sound, and sensation.
The Panorama Manila is the new benchmark of opulence. Beyond its breathtaking bay views, it provides seamless access to premier leisure attractions and business hubs to the north and south of the district.
This kind of property doesn’t come very often.
Ultra luxury developments of this caliber are rare. The Panorama Manila presents a highly desired, limited collection of penthouses, designed to elevate any property connoisseur’s portfolio. With exceptional attention to detail, the finest finishes, panoramic sea-to-city views, and distinctive configurations, these palatial residences set the gold standard for opulent living in the district.
For seasoned investors and high-net-worth individuals, The Panorama Manila is more than just a home. It is also a prime asset for wealth preservation, ensuring lasting value in one of the capital’s most iconic locations.
