5 Relaxing Properties With Parks And Gardens In The City
Because we all need a bit of breathing space
Open spaces with trees, landscaping, and pleasant walkways are a rarity in Metro Manila. So it usually comes as a surprise when you stumble upon a real estate developer who would sacrifice a couple of hectares to create a park or garden, rather than build yet another high rise. Here are five of them:
NORTH
Vertis North
This commercial, residential, and retail development in Quezon City is a fast-growing hub, what with its relaxed Vertis North mall and the five-star Seda Hotel. Another attraction is its two-hectare Vertis Gardens, a sprawling, open park in the middle of the commercial and residential district, which will be a welcome reprieve in the busy area.
Type: High-rise condos
Location: Diliman, Quezon City

The Arton by Rockwell
Katipunan is prime real estate space, considering the number of top schools and universities in the area. So if you have school-age children, it makes sense to consider The Arton, which is located on top of a hill along Aurora Boulevard. Aside from its family-friendly amenities such as a FIBA-sized multipurpose court, gym, and pools, the enclave has lots of jogging paths, gardens, and views of the Sierra Madre Mountain Range.
Location: Aurora Blvd., Brgy. Loyola Heights, Quezon City
