Vista City: A future masterpiece of city development

MANILA, Philippines - An artist looks at a slab of marble, and within it sees a sculpture. Vista Land looks at a tract of land, and within it recognizes a city like no other.

Vista Land unveils Vista City, its most expansive central business district (CBD) in the south and  its most ambitious development so far.

Vista City is being built in a scale as grand as its aspiration—to become the country’s premier master-planned city, all 1,500 hectares of it.

Strategically located where Muntinlupa, Las Piñas, Cavite and Laguna meet, this metropolitan catch-basin is where people are bound to come together.

A future masterpiece of city development, Vista City is envisioned to be a place of total convergence, where urban luxury blends with suburban comfort, where cosmopolitan aspiration mingles with countryside desire.

With a thriving lifestyle center, a broader space for living well, an innovative business district, and a bustling expanse for learning and leisure, Vista City merges business opportunities, culture, livability, and innovation in harmony.

A landmark of craftsmanship is the Evia Lifestyle Center—an impressive five-hectare commercial and retail area along Daang Hari, Las Piñas. Fast becoming one of the high-end destinations of the area—in fact, it has already become a gathering place for visitors from neighboring communities—this lifestyle center promises to be one of the metro’s newest and most tasteful hotspots.  It is now open to visitors looking for a bar to party at, a café to lay back in, or a restaurant to catch up with friends. It also houses Rustan’s Supermarket as its anchor store.

An open-air retail promenade is also set to be completed later this year. It will cater to a market with a taste for retail diversity and convenience. Featuring everything from shopping with signature labels and popular high-street fashion to selecting from quality culinary offerings to relish, Evia Lifestyle Center is definitely envisioned to have something in store for every taste, need, and interest.

The retail experience in Vista City will continue to flourish in the next five years with the opening of a multi-storey commercial complex and a regional mall offering a balanced mix of practical and lifestyle-oriented stores, bringing convenient shopping and diverse experiences to the area.

The existing residential communities adorn the landscape not only with the bustling Italian-themed abodes of Brittany’s Portofino and Crown Asia’s Ponticelli, but also with Camella Cerritos’ affordable homes.

Built with a hint of old-world charm and a touch of rustic romance, these developments have dramatically enhanced the property value of the area. In fact, they continue to do so, attracting more dreamers eager to build their homes and futures with Vista Land. Because of this, more residential projects occupying more than 600 hectares are underway that will offer lots, house-and-lots, and mid-rise condominiums. These new residential areas for expansion promise to cross the boundaries of traditional developments with features that include abundant landscapes, upgraded house models, wider open spaces, as well as exclusive and modern amenities.

A unique feature of Vista City is the Vista Hub, an entire district devoted to business and commerce along Daang Hari South, Las Piñas. Earmarked to become one of the most advanced business and IT parks in the country, the initial 10-hectare phase is already underway and will be a future home to the BPO sector. This opens new possibilities for more people and businesses to develop together, providing employment to residents of surrounding communities and elsewhere.

What especially makes the business district stand out is the Fernbrook Gardens, now one of Manila’s most desired wedding venues. The Russian-Victorian-inspired edifice is housed under an elegant dome, filled with gardens, high-quality amenities, and an atmosphere that evokes serenity. A hotel that services not only traveling businessmen but also families will also form part of this burgeoning district. With luxury facilities in unique and intimate settings with full-service accommodations, this sophisticated hotel is designed to host both people and events.

Encompassing 100 hectares in total, Vista City will also have its own spaces for sports, health, higher learning, and even religious worship. With a strategic university town in the works, as well as sophisticated health facilities, a sports mecca, and a country club, this master-planned city is sure to nourish both mind and body of every dweller.
