What MOA can teach people about the next era of urbanization

The next generation of great cities will not happen by chance. They will be built deliberately—planned as integrated ecosystems where living, working, leisure, and commerce are seamlessly connected. In the Philippines, few developments reflect this shift more clearly than the Mall of Asia (MOA) complex in Pasay City.

Step into a new way of city living at the Mall of Asia Complex—where SMDC residences are seamlessly connected to retail, business, entertainment, and global events, creating a lifestyle that’s as dynamic as it is convenient.

Across a single district, MOA brings together a rare convergence: the sprawling SM Mall of Asia, the landmark MOA Arena, the five-star Conrad Manila, the E-Com office clusters, and a growing network of residential and hospitality developments. Soon, the addition of the SMX Center for International Trade and Exhibitions (SMXCITE) will expand MOA’s role even further. Designed to accommodate up to 18,000 guests, SMXCITE will double SMX’s exhibition footprint and position MOA as the country’s premier hub for global trade shows, conferences, and business events—comparable to Southeast Asia’s leading convention centers.

SMDC’s Ice Tower Residential-Office is your gateway to year-round access to business events, networking, and higher rental potential.

Strategically rising beside SMXCITE is SMDC’s Ice Tower Residential-Office. Its location is no coincidence. For Ice Tower owners, immediate proximity to the country’s largest events center means access to a year-round stream of businesses, entrepreneurs, and international delegates. Units here will have the built-in advantage of higher rental demand, business flexibility, and strong resale potential—qualities that few other addresses in Metro Manila can replicate.

Inspired by the serenity of the sea and set against the backdrop of MOA’s bustling urban
energy, Sail Residences is where every day feels like a retreat.

Experience resort-style living in a community designed for comfort, convenience, and connection.

This ripple effect extends to other SMDC developments in the complex as well, such as Sail Residences, offering waterfront-inspired living near commerce, and Shore 3 Residences, an expansive enclave with resort-style amenities at the heart of a business and leisure corridor.

Live in the heart of growth by owning a space where opportunity
is just outside your door.

In a market where location alone is no longer enough, MOA gives a real-world glimpse of what tomorrow’s cities will need: being close to where industries are growing, having easy access to business and leisure hubs, and living in communities designed for long-term growth and connection. Owning a condo within this complex means living in a district built for real growth—where business opportunities, tourism, and everyday life all come together.

Here, families blend everyday living with
extraordinary experiences.

The future of urban value will not be determined by geography alone, but by ecosystems—and MOA is proving how that future can be built.
