BGC In time of COVID19

Much have been said and spread about COVID19 in Bonifacio Global City.  As the #BGCExpert I will not add to that.  Instead, I will adopt the concept of “Keep Calm and Wash Your Hands.”

Part of being safe is knowledge.  Arm ourselves with much information about the virus and act accordingly.

What I appreciate about living in Bonifacio Global City is the awareness and preparedness.  I can say that all the office and residential buildings provide disinfecting alcohol and hand sanitizers in the lobby areas, common areas and by the elevators.  Kudos to BGC for professionally managing the situation by their responsible actions and sensitivity to health concerns.

Given this COVID19 situation, I believe that when you invest in a condominium for yourself, your business and more importantly for your family, look at the community as a whole and not just at the structure.

We often take it for granted but the simple but proper handwashing is the key to our safety.

Let’s all keep calm, stay safe, stay healthy.

Bonsai at BGC

Buddhist monks as early as 1,000 BC in China “propagated” the bonsai which grew from their wish to bring nature inside the temples. And for the record, although bonsai is greatly associated to Japan, the art really originated in China.

In Bonifacio Global City, take a walk around the greenery and open spaces at One Serendra to discover a bonsai garden nook. The landscaping is well-appropriated making the nature walk a holistic experience.

Terra 28

Terra Park or Terra 28 is a park in front of the Verve Residences Tower 2 and One Maridien in Bonifacio Global City.  This is part of the High Street South block in BGC.

Urban planning in BGC includes pocket parks with lush greeneries of trees and plants. The idiomatic expression “get some air” fully applies not just in Terra 28 but all over BGC.  For those counting steps, include a walk around Terra 28 for a good 10-minutes workout.

For a quick picker-upper, take a walk in one of the pocket parks at BGC.

BGC's Urban Open Space

Parks, Gardens, Playing Fields, Playing Courts abound in Bonifacio Global City and these areas comprise the concept of Urban Open Space. These spaces are categorized as either public or privately owned such as campuses and corporate areas. Urban Open Spaces are counterparts of major housing or commercial development.

For me, these urban open space is what makes BGC a walkable city, breathable, relaxing and rejuvenating even.

According to Wikipedia (en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Urban_open_space)  The World Health Organization consider urban green spaces as very important to human health. These areas have a positive impact on mental and physical health. Urban open spaces often include trees or other shrubbery that contribute to moderating temperatures and decreasing air pollution.

BGC's Greenery and Open Spaces

The “twin city of Makati” is how The Ayala Group regarded Bonifacio Global City. The group has been very instrumental in helping convert BGC into the premier financial district in the country. The Serendra block is one of their luxury developments.
At Two Serendra, greenery and open spaces abound. And for the holidays they have dressed up the garden and the lobby with all things sparkly and joyful.

Only the Best Healthcare in BGC

Bonifacio Global City is the rapidly flourishing business and residential district in Metro Manila. Apart from having the best international schools it also has a leading healthcare institution… St. Luke’s Medical Center. It opened in 2010 and it has consistently been reaping awards, recognitions and accrediations worldwide.
Did you know that St. Luke was a physician? He is the patron saint of doctors and surgeons.
There is peace of mind knowing that you get state-of-the art healthcare and it is a major factor in choosing your next residential or business investment. Consult the BGC Expert at https://bgcconsultancy.com.


Save Me a Dream

Over at Terra Park by the concrete/cement benches, you can find yourself sitting and
maybe catching some dreams… I found this just a while back and I find it too amusing
not to post.
I call it the Dreamcatcher Trellis at Terra Park on 28th Avenue Bonifacio Global City.
Parks are a’plenty at BGC – I believe it is in the grand design of the city to have as
many “breathing” spaces between the high-rise buildings.

Living Kindly at BGC

From VegFest Pilipinas Organizers

“Live Kindly For The Community,” is the theme of the 2019 VegFest Pilipinas. Happening on Nov 16-17 at BGC Arts Center from 8am to 10pm.

Personally I am not a vegan nor a vegetarian, but I do support a zero-waste lifestyle. Living at Bonifacio Global City influenced much that mindset and
attitude. Take for instance on food choices. I purchase only what I can consume. Perhaps I will learn more at the VegFest... See you there.

Experience the BGC lifestyle, consult the BGC Expert on that condominium investment. Visit https://bgcconsultancy.com.


BGC Bike and Biker-friendly City

I believe it follows that people adapt to their well-provided for environment. What do I mean?

Specifically here at Bonifacio Global City, bicycles have designated parking and there are lanes for cyclists.  Personally, I have seen groups of cyclists meet up during weekends.
Perhaps in the nearer future BGC could land in the list of bike-friendly cities in the world. From research, European cities from the BeNeLux rank in the Top 10.

Pet-friendly City BGC

Walking around BGC, I notice that more and more residents and visitors alike take their pets around the new premier hub in Metro Manila.  Although I see more dogs than cats, I wonder when pet turtles or rabbits will be walked by their humans…. haha.

Kidding aside, I appreciate the discipline that caring for pets instill, like picking up after the dog and throwing in the right bin.  And BGC has appropriated the  bins and areas for our furry/hairy pets.

Plus, you can dine with pets now! Know the best restaurants to take your dog to by clicking this link.
