Posh dev’t project to rise in city’s northern eco-hub
CAMELLA Communities Davao, subsidiary of the country’s biggest homebuilder Vistaland and Lifescapes, is eyeing the northern part of Davao City for the location of their new high-end project.
The masterplanned developer sees opportunities in the growth of the city’s northern economic hub with the ongoing development of modern office facilities catering to the BPO industry and other businesses, as well as high-end commercial and shopping centers.
“We intend to provide Davao the opportunity to be part of this vibrant economic and social environment by giving them a residential location within the city’s emerging urban enclave,” declared Marlon Escalicas, Camella Communities Davao general manager.
As the ongoing developments cater to the local and regional market, the city’s professional workforce, business people from local and international outsourcing companies, and the projected influx of local and foreign investors, Camella foresees the need for modern residential facilities to house these economic and commercial movers who will want to locate right where the action is.
“A modern residential location equipped with all the facilities and amenities needed for a comfortable, convenient and active lifestyle is what we are looking to develop. It will be the first of its kind in the northern part of Davao, and will come with many more enhanced features that will give its homeowners the ultimate modern lifestyle,” said Escalicas.
He added that their new project will not only be an addition to Davao’s urban development. It will be different in that the natural environs of the location will be preserved and even enhanced in respect to Mother Nature, he said.
