About Eton City


Eton City is the flagship horizontal project of Eton Properties Philippines, Inc., located in Sta. Rosa, Laguna, and is envisioned to be the new Makati of the South. With an area of close to 1,000 hectares, it is a never-before-seen development that is carefully master-planned to provide its residents a complete city lifestyle in a nature-rich setting. Located at ETON CITY (formerly Asia Brewery) - Greenfield Exit, this full-scale mixed-use township project will provide residential enclaves, a world-class business district, a golf course, and a broad range of commercial and resort-style recreation facilities.

The first phase is the South Lake Village with a 150-hectare residential enclave featuring a 35-hectare lake and 18 one-hectare islands. It is the first of its kind residential development in the Philippines.

Frequently Asked Questions
1.) Will the water be a breeding ground for mosquitoes?
The water in the lake will be flowing, which will make it unsuitable for mosquitoes to breed since mosquitoes breed in stagnant water. Aside from the inflow and outflow system we will be establishing in the lake, we will also have aerators and a water fountain, which will also ensure the flow of water in the lake.
Also, we will be putting fish in the lake, and the fish will eat any mosquito larvae that will be present in the water.
2.) Will the development be prone to flooding, especially during typhoons?
The development is provided with proper drainage system for both the residential subdivision and the lake. The lots and roads have a separate drainage system which prevents rain water from the land to run into the lake, and the lake has its own drainage system which prevents lake water from overflowing into the lots. The villages are elevated with the same height as the SLEX and are designed with the consideration of a 50-year flood projection.
3.) How will the possibility of an overflow be addressed?
The lake will have a maximum water level after which excess water will be drained via side drainage overflow system. This will flow to the main drainage line, on the lake bridge, thru the waterfalls feature of the bridge, and to the existing creek. There will also be a separate drainage system for the lake and for the roads, which will ensure that the village will not flood even during heavy rains.
4.) Won't the river water be a source of pollution?
Pollution of the lake from the river water source is prevented by the detention pond which filters the water before letting it in the main lake. Domestic waste from the village structures and houses are prevented from contaminating the lake water by proper sewerage system.
5.) How will the accumulation of too much algae be prevented?
The flow of the lake water prevents the accumulation of too much algae although some may be present due to existence of marine life on the lake (algae provides food to fish). One way to prevent algae proliferation is to introduce oxygen to the water, which is one of the reasons why there will be lake aeration devices and water fountains in South Lake.
6.) How will you ensure that the water in the lake will be flowing?
The flow of water throughout the lake is promoted by providing a regular drainage and replenishment of lake water from different water sources. Water channels under the land bridges connecting the islands allows water to flow freely and prevent it from being stagnant.
7.) Will there be a garbage disposal policy?
Proper garbage disposal shall be provided by the village administration.
8.) Will erosion of the island and lakeside lots occur?
Erosion of Island and Lakeside lots are prevented because lots will be engineered fill and compacted. The lakeside will also be protected by a lake liner, earth fill, rock layers, sand and some vegetation, which will also help in the prevention of erosion since these layers will be the barriers between the lots and the lake.
