Thriving South Forbes Golf City

Oddly this December, the rains still bring in a refreshing feeling against the stinging heat of the sun. A universal metaphor for the origin and renewal of life, rain carries with it hope that life will always flourish wherever it pours. Of course, without the rain, nothing can wash away Phil Collins’ hurt away or Gene Kelly will have nowhere to dance in.

As the rain showers over South Forbes Golf City, the country’s largest fully-integrated and all-themed golf resort city at the forefront of the Metro Sta. Rosa – Tagaytay corridor and acclaimed Best Golf Community Development by the 2007 CNBC International Property Awards, the world’s most prestigious property awards programme, life continues to thrive from the place to its residents.

Reflections. The success of any thriving community, aside from its people, is a result of good planning and creative design. New Urbanism has played a major role in the development of South Forbes as it ensures that the whole city remains compact, mixed-use, and pedestrian-friendly to reduce, if not eliminate, the dependency on an automobile-oriented system.

“Creating a great place takes a lot of passion and we want our residents in South Forbes to share the same vision and feel the same passion so that our city will grow into one that is interesting, diverse, and community-oriented,” said Cathay Land president Jeffrey Ng.

Rainbow Connection. To see a rainbow, one has to have rain and sunshine. It is a mutual interaction between 2 elements that results in a spectacular natural phenomenon.

Interactions like this inspire South Forbes to create its 5 Clusters of excellence where each cluster — Residential, Business, Education, Wellness, and Leisure — performs its own function yet works in synergy with each other in order to provide its residents a place to live, work, study, shop, and play.

To quote an old Irish blessing, may the rains fall soft upon your fields. Move in right here, right now. Call 635-7777 or 631-8855 for a free city tour or log on to www.southforbes.com for more information.
