Development of waterfront amenity in full swing at Citta di Mare

CEBU, Philippines - In terms of living the good life and indulging in a vibrant lifestyle, the Cebuanos have much to look forward to at Citta di Mare. Matching Cebu’s fervor and vitality is the Il Corso, a waterfront amenity area inspired by the world’s finest waterfront cities such as Newport Beach in California, the French Riviera, and Darling Harbour in Sydney. It promises a valued range of seaside leisure facilities for residents and visitors of Citta di Mare. 

Construction is in full swing, with earthworks for the 8-hectare area for The Filinvest Festival Mall fully completed. The Mall will open its doors for its grand launch on August 3, 2013. Utility distribution lines as well as the underground power distribution lines are also currently in development. As early as this month, construction of the first batch of 6 buildings will commence while the last batch of 4 buildings will begin in June 2012.

Located across the residential enclaves of Citta di Mare (which translates to city by the sea), the lifestyle strip boasts of fashion and specialty boutiques, restaurant and cafes along with other retail stores and a big box retail concept store. Capping a wonderful day at Il Corso is to indulge in a sumptuous dinner overlooking the marina.

Il Corso complements the general theme of Citta di Mare as it offers unique leisure sights that reflect the vivid culture of Cebu. Local and foreign tourists will be re-acquainted with the rich history of Cebu through a charming Chinese night market and the Cebu Heritage Walk, where visitors can marvel at a galleon replica. For kids, a sandbox and a water feature are places to run and frolic. All year round, there will be lively fairs and street festivals to spice up the local flavor.

Redefining seaside resort living in the country, Citta di Mre provides prospective residents a stunning view of the city’s best sights – the Mactan coast and Cebu mountains as it occupies a portion of Cebu’s 300-hectare South Road Properties.

“Citta di Mare offers residents an idyllic life of semi-seclusion without totally isolating themselves from the conveniences of urban living,” explains First Vice President for Visayas and Mindanao Tristan Las Marias.

Il Corso at Citta di Mare is another prime development of Filinvest.
