Historians account ancient Filipinos as being neighborly in character. The National Artist Carlos “Botong” Francisco depicted this bayanihan ritual in a mural, wherein Filipinos helped their neighbors move their bahay kubo to another location using bamboo poles.
While this old practice may be difficult to do in modern times, the spirit of bayanihan may well be alive in the 21st century. Perhaps, it’s in the ties that bind a closely-knit community, with only a select few families.
Such is the vision for Greenhills Heights, one of the developments of Megaworld Corporation. With only 168 units on offer across its four mid-rise buildings, the company foresees a closely-knit community, where everyone knows everybody else in the neighborhood.
“Since you only have a few neighbors, you all have that opportunity to build a strong community with them. Since everybody is familiar with one another, there’s less chance of theft and other security concerns in a pocket community,” Megaworld VP for marketing and project head Maricen Jalandoni said.
Greenhills Heights is now being constructed across the historic Pinaglabanan Shrine in San Juan City. Its strategic location gives it an advantage over other projects. Top schools are nearby. The Ortigas business district is a short drive away. For the family’s shopping and recreational needs, Greenhills shopping center and the Ortigas complex malls will only take a few minutes.
The amenities are designed to help both adults and youngsters get over the introductory bump and start friendships. The lagoon-shaped pool will be the venue for many swimming parties. The playground will be ideal for toddlers to meet up, as well as for mothers to exchange tips on how to take care of the kids.
