Magnum opus, The Galleon sets sail

The Galleon encompasses various facets of life as residents can live in one tower, work in another and shop downstairs.

Like a ship coming ashore, The Galleon will be a spectacle in Ortigas Center upon its completion in 2028.

Delivered by established developer Ortigas Land, this premier project will surely charm onlookers. The Galleon is a magnum opus, showcasing Ortigas Land’s acumen and willingness to please increasingly discerning homebuyers. The spires on the towers represent the masts of a ship while the crowns represent sails. The building will reveal beautiful angles as viewers move past. The podium resembles a hull, with patterns evoking the waves of the sea.

The Galleon, which will rise along ADB Avenue, is the first mixed-use development in Ortigas Center—with its two-story retail space, 39-story Offices at the Galleon and 51-story Residences at the Galleon. Viewers will imagine residents living a high life when they look up at the taller tower. They would not be wrong.

Indoors you’ll find a mini-theater, resident’s lounge, social hall, game room, gym, daycare and sauna, among other amenities.

Opulent lifestyle

Occupants will settle in 509 stylish abodes on offer at Residences at The Galleon. They will enjoy generous unit cuts from one-bedroom to penthouse configurations, with sizes ranging from 69 to 411 sqm. Corner units provide scenic views, while some floors will tower over office spaces—talk about a status symbol.

The high-end finishes exude an executive feel. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living areas are equipped with homogeneous porcelain tiles, while bedrooms have cozy wood flooring. All units have balconies. They also have smart-home technology, allowing owners to control lights, plugs and airconditioning, among others. A building management system ensures utmost security and convenience.

Despite the future community’s variety, residents will enjoy a peaceful, uncrowded life because each floor will only have 12 units max.

Diverse community

Hard-driving yuppies eager to rise through the ranks, startup families celebrating their high-end sensibilities, empty-nesters rewarding themselves with a luxurious lifestyle as well as investors looking for a sound addition to their portfolio are driving the take up at Residences at the Galleon.

Complete life

The Galleon encompasses various facets of life. Residents can live in one tower, work in another and shop downstairs. This is sustainable for urban dwellers in the new normal, and ideal when another pandemic hits. It guarantees convenience, and continuity during crises.

The address is a stone’s throw away from commercial buildings, offices and essential institutions. Work at top companies like Maersk Group and San Miguel Corp. Shop at the Podium or SM Megamall. Give your kids A1 education at British School Manila, University of Asia and the Pacific, and Poveda. Hospitals and recreational spaces are nearby.

Mindful design

The Galleon is compliant with the Green Building Code, making it environment-friendly, efficient and healthy. It also has LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Silver accreditation. A Solar Reflectivity Study meanwhile made sure no unit would suffer from glare or extreme heat, and that The Galleon would not pose a hazard or nuisance to drivers and passersby. Further studies ensure good ventilation for residents—which means clean and odor-free air, as well as lower energy consumption.

Ortigas rising

Ortigas Center is already highly accessible at the midpoint of Metro Manila. Despite this, property prices are still a fraction of the costs in Makati and Bonifacio Global City. It would be wise to step into this growth corridor now as prices may skyrocket soon. BGC-Ortigas Center Link Road Project and Rockwell Bridge will improve connectivity from Ortigas to Makati and Taguig. The Metro Manila Subway Project and MRT-4 will also make Ortigas Center far more accessible and thus pricier.

Ortigas Land built The Galleon to reflect its culture of efficiency, comfort and wellness. Residences at The Galleon will deliver spectacular abodes for those who want to cruise through life in elegance.
