Designing places for modern, sustainable living

From city core to rising growth corridors, Federal Land NRE Global Inc. (FNG) is shaping places that set the pace for sustainable modern living.

And it does so by creating well-connected communities that can offer access, convenience, growth, potential and conducive settings that can support a well-rounded lifestyle. Its developments are set in areas where people can thrive now and grow further in the years ahead.

Two developments make this strategy easy to see. The Observatory in Mandaluyong City brings Japanese-inspired living right in the heart of Metro Manila. Yume at Riverpark in General Trias, Cavite meanwhile anchors a fast-emerging district that is shaping the future of the south.

A central address

Mandaluyong City holds a unique position in Metro Manila.

It sits between the Makati central business district (CBD), Bonifacio Global City and Ortigas Center, giving it unmatched reach to workplaces, malls, lifestyle hubs and transport links.

Living here means shorter travel times as well as improved access to essentials, leisure and more. For many of today’s urban professionals, this kind of convenience has already become a necessity.

The Observatory, which rises along Pioneer Street, makes the most of this advantage.

It is being developed by FNG, the joint venture between Federal Land and Japan’s property giant, Nomura Real Estate Development Corp., ensuring that residents and businesses will benefit from smart community planning and a calm, premium environment.

Envisioned to be a modern city retreat that is complete, convenient and comfortable, this 4.5-hectare mixed-use complex will feature residential towers offering studios, one- to three-bedroom cuts, and expansive penthouse units; an office building; retail spaces; as well as expansive open spaces and scenic views of the city or the Pasig River, giving a sense of openness that is rare in most city centers. All these components will reflect Japanese influences in terms of designs, architecture and culture.

Essentially, this combination of unrivaled location and thoughtful execution positions The Observatory as a strong choice.

After all, residents will be accorded an urban lifestyle enhanced by proximity, comfort and speed.

Investors will meanwhile benefit from an address that can hold its value over the long term, as The Observatory’s location alone ensures a steady demand for rental residences from professionals and expatriates who prefer central locations.

A prime address taking shape

Beyond the metro, another opportunity is rising in General Trias, Cavite.

Here, the 600-ha Riverpark estate by Federal Land rises as an integrated district in a progressive province. It will have a CBD, commercial centers, leisure hubs and residential developments, thus promising economic vitality, conveniences and opportunity. There will be sprawling spaces and greenways too, spanning some 70 ha, including a 16-ha Central Park and a 1.8-km bike trail.

This early, many are already seeing the promise of Riverpark coming to life. The estate will soon be home to the UNIQLO Logistics Facility; SM City General Trias; and the Ateneo de Manila University campus in Cavite, set to open by 2030.

For those who want to call Riverpark home, FNG presents Yume at Riverpark as an ideal choice.

It is poised to offer a slice of the famed Japanese lifestyle sought by many today, ensuring balance and intentional living. Homebuyers can choose from 296 prime lots, all thoughtfully positioned across this 18-ha neighborhood to ensure ample space and privacy.

Awaiting these future residents are social spaces and community amenities tailored to their needs. The Clubhouse, designed by Japan’s UDS and Filipino architect Ed Calma, serves as the heart of Yume at Riverpark. There will also be a wellness spa with a sauna and jacuzzi; multipurpose court; fitness and play areas; and Japanese gardens.

Two strong opportunities

The Observatory and Yume at Riverpark may sit in different locations, but their strengths are complementary.

One meets the needs of those who want the speed and access of the metro, while the other answers the growing demand for larger spaces, calmer environments and long-term opportunity in emerging growth districts.

This dual approach reflects FNG’s read of the market, and its portfolio caters to priorities and investment goals, making choosing a property clear and attainable.
