Construction is in full swing for Phase 2 of the development, Mandani Bay Quay, with three residential towers and one office tower all being constructed at the same time.  With a strong market response and take up of Mandani Bay, Phase 3 is in the final planning stage and is set to launch by second half of 2021.  The construction of the 2.5-hectare boardwalk is also set to commence by the first quarter of 2021. 

The Two Roxas Triangle, a luxury residential condominium project with Ayala Land Premier located right in the heart of the Makati Central Business District, is currently turning over residential units to its owners. 

Hongkong Land has also released for pre-sale early this year, The Velaris Residences, a three-tower development within the Bridgetown Business Park development in Pasig City, Metro Manila. This project is to be developed in partnership with Robinsons Land Corporation.
