Developer Cebu Landmasters, Inc. has allotted P2 billion for the first phase of a four-tower complex that will be built on the site of a former recreational and sports facility in midtown Cebu City.

Baseline Restaurant and Recreation Center, a major landmark along Juana Osmeña St., has been demolished to pave for Base Line Center.

Phase 1 development will start in the third quarter of this year and is targeted to be completed in 30 months, said CLI chairman and founder Jose R. Soberano III.

“We have finished site clearing and construction will start within the third quarter of this year,” Soberano said in a text message.

Base Line Center will rise adjacent to the newly completed Baseline Residences, also a CLI project.

Jose Franco B. Soberano, chief operating officer, said in a statement that Phase 1 will consist of two towers to be named Base Line HQ and Base Line Premier as well as a commercial area that will feature a grocery store and food and retail outlets surrounded by al fresco areas.

Base Line HQ will be a 21-story office condominium.

The third to eighth floors will be offices while the ninth floor and succeeding levels have been designated for condotel units that will be operated as serviced residences.

Both offices and residences will have separate lobby access. Base Line Premier will be a 27-story residential condominium with the units designed for flexible interior configuration.

Overall, the development is designed to provide solutions to a modern city while maintaining its tradition as a center for the local community.

“At Base Line, Cebuanos can proudly live, work and thrive,” the younger Soberano said in the statement.

Base Line Center will have three access points to create efficient vehicle and pedestrian circulation. These three drop-off areas will provide independent and quick access to the residential condo units, offices, serviced residences, or commercial areas while ensuring privacy and security.

The buildings will feature sky gardens that provide functional open space for the residents to enjoy.

The glass façade of the retail and office areas provide natural lighting and give maximum visual connection to the people within and around the area.
