Metro Manila has traditionally been the epicenter of progress in the country. With the challenges of local migration and overpopulation, development in recent decades has slowly been creeping out into the surrounding suburban areas—and rightfully so. The sprawling spaces in these locations are perfect for establishing master planned communities from the ground up.

The Calabarzon region south of Metro Manila, in particular, has been a burgeoning area of growth because of its close proximity to the traditional business and commercial centers in the National Capital Region. And with the global pivot these days toward sustainability, the nature-rich locale is also ideal for building communities and enterprises that offer wellness and resiliency against the demands of modern living.

In Laguna, a pioneering mixed-use district rises with a compelling proposition of numerous opportunities. Created by a progressive, future-ready environment, it’s one that successfully blends everyday life with purposeful work and more peaceful coexistence with nature. 

Spearheading growth

Broadfield is a 171-hectare master planned estate in Biñan developed by Ayala Land, a real estate developer with a deliberate commitment to the well-being and welfare of its residents and inhabitants. 

In fact, the South is an area where Ayala has been an early adapter, with seminal developments such as the Laguna Technopark industrial zone and the renowned NUVALI ecopolis, along with various well-known residential communities offer a range of living experiences—from sensible primary residences to exclusive enclaves.

Broadfield further strengthens Ayala’s presence in the area and provides a contemporary live-work environment for today. As with all other Ayala estates, getting into Broadfield is a rewarding experience not only physically but financially, being an investment that has the sure potential to increase in value over time.

What sets Broadfield apart is its urban efficiency on a human scale, with pedestrian-friendly surroundings such as tree-lined walkways and bike-dedicated lanes. Verdant landscaping and generous sections of pocket parks, anchored by a high street promenade, aim to nurture the district’s inhabitants and encourage an active, outdoor lifestyle.

Most importantly, Broadfield’s orientation toward sustainability is highlighted by smart city features such as real-time traffic data that enhances efficient mobility; porous hardscape material that allows rainwater to seep through and drain effectively; as well as energy-efficient, solar-powered street lights, among others.

Such a sustainable environment is not only ideal to call home for those who choose to live in any of the district’s residential communities, but it is also the perfect backdrop for modern enterprises that espouse sustainable progress. 

Holistic development

In Broadfield, Ayala Land’s upscale development brand Alveo is offering commercial lots that provide the perfect opportunity to build businesses attuned with a positive impact on society.

Alveo’s commercial zone is a healthy environment for incubators and start-ups, both homegrown and global alike, that are geared toward sustainability and future-proof living solutions. And with De La Salle University as an anchor in the Broadfield master plan, locators enjoy a veritable “college town” atmosphere where ideas are cultivated and critical thinking is encouraged. 

Apart from offices, even traditional establishments that provide daily needs can gain more relevance and purpose situated within such a sustainable township. Alveo’s commercial lots are also suitable for malls, retail centers, banks, hotels, entertainment and leisure facilities, as well as other enterprises that can contribute to creating a self-contained and holistic community.
