Celadon Manila by Ayala Land
The rise of an innovative integrated development charts a new frontier in Manila as it is given a lifestyle anchor consistent with the city's progressive potential. Celadon Manila, the leisure community from Ayala Land's subsidiaries, offers the opportunity for people to live, work, shop, meet, and relax in one integrated neighborhood-underscoring a vibrant lifestyle experience.
Celadon Manila's integration of a distinctive retail experience, career advancement and an uptown leisure lifestyle complements the rich and diverse culture of Manila. The seamless synergy of retail, commercial and residential developments in an urban ecosystem managed by Ayala Malls, Ayala Land Commercial Business Group and Community Innovations, paves the way for a holistic transformation of the city.
The 6-hectare in-city development is comprised of three distinct elements that characterize a cohesive urban ecosystem:
- Shops at Celadon
- Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) site
- Residential District (Celadon Residences Townhomes and Celadon Park Condos)
Shops at Celadon (Ayala Malls)
Offering a lively variety of shopping, dining and leisure options, Shops at Celadon by Ayala Malls is set to define a new retail experience in Manila. Anticipated to provide a distinctly intimate leisure experience, the retail venue will offer a tenant mix that is attuned to the needs and lifestyles of those living and working within the development.
The retail and commercial development will be located on Felix Huertas Street and will occupy about 3,000 square meters of shops, dining and leisure establishments.
Business Process Outsourcing site (Ayala Land's Corporate Business Group)
The ease of living and working in the city is further emphasized by the development of the biggest BPO (business process outsourcing) site in Manila, courtesy of the Ayala Land's Commercial Business Group. Strategically planned to address the industry's unique requirements, Celadon Manila's BPO center will be the first call center site in Manila with retail and leisure amenities open at extended hours to complement the industry's demanding work environment.
The BPO sites strategic location near the university belt along Felix Huertas Street is ideal for increasing participating BPO's visibility and exposure to the students of surrounding universities.
The BPO project is expected to generate about 13,000 jobs when fully built. Major BPO players like Convergys and PeopleSupport are expected to be one of the first occupants.
Residential District (Community Innovations)
Celadon Residences (townhomes) and Celadon Park (condominiums), offer a refreshing take on residential living in Uptown Manila. The two residential districts within Celadon Manila, developed by Community Innovations, promises a vibrant lifestyle experience within this progressive development, combining the ease of urban essentials inside an integrated community with leisure at its core.

Blueprint for Growth
Ayala Land's diverse undertakings are supported by prudent financial policies including a selective reliance on bank debt, which has allowed Ayala Land to hold on to its properties over extended periods and downcycles. We engage in financing activities such as equity partnerships and pre-sales to fund our huge acquisitions and development programs.
As the country's largest and only full-line property developer, we have the unique advantage of being a major player in each of the key real estate segments. Our primary drivers of value are residential development, shopping centers, and strategic landbank management, each involving different combinations of investment requirements, value appreciation and cash flow returns. Our Residential Development business, with its fast cycle times and high margins, allows us to capitalize on quick-strike opportunities. The shopping Center business in turn stabilizes our revenues across the movements of the business cycle, with its large and steady cash flow returns. And our Strategic Landbank business gives us both a platform for creating strong and lasting value appreciation in our major landholdings, as well as growth areas for our other business lines.
In addition we have two smaller but rapidly-growing core businesses, our corporate business and Vis-Min units. Finally, our three strategic support businesses provide proprietary competitive advantages to each of our core business lines.
In each of the games being played across the industry, we are a leading player. This results in our being able to leverage the benefits of being in every game: scale, real value-added synergy, the financial wherewithal to ride out downturns in the cycle, and the flexibility to capitalize quickly on opportunities. This thus gives us a profit upside that is unique, in that we can profitably allocate resources to all the plays in the Philippine real estate development industry, and capture additional margin by combining products in a single project.
