IN MAKATI CITY, a “mini-township” is opening with a new co-lifestyle concept. A development by Eton Properties Philippines, Inc., Eton WestEnd Square is envisioned to attract tech and online companies, eco-friendly shops, social enterprises, homegrown restaurants, and other new enterprise concepts. The development’s location in West Makati — at the corner of Chino Roces Ave., Yakal, and Malugay streets — offers easy access to buses, taxi cabs, shuttle vans, jeepneys, and tricycles. Part of the development is the eWestMall, two storeys of retail spaces with a total leasable space of approximately 3,750 square meters. Meanwhile, the eWestPod offers four floors of work spaces best suited for BPOs, tech companies, and start-ups. The low-rise office building has 13,955 square meters for lease. The mall and workspace are near Blakes Tower, a 36-floor mixed-use development that houses serviced apartments, a dormitory, and boutique offices. It will feature shared amenities such as breakout rooms and lounge areas per floor, and features amenity-filled serviced apartments hinged on the co-living concept. Blakes Offices offers boutique offices and co-working areas. “At Eton WestEnd Square, community is king. With opportunities for leisure enjoyment, career pursuits, and quality residences in one mini-township, a self-sustaining and vibrant enclave emerges,” Martha Herrera-Subido, Eton’s AVP for Marketing, PR and Corporate Communications was quoted as saying in a release. Eton WestEnd Square is set to complete eWestPod and eWestMall this year.
