BGC Greenway Park is a suburban escape in a bustling business center
Metro Manila has long become an urban jungle of cacophony.
The once green and healthy city is now too crowded and chaotic, as open spaces have taken a backseat to make room for skyscrapers and condominiums. Urbanites are finding it difficult to pursue a sound and healthy lifestyle when the air they breathe in is toxic and the dangers of the road are all too real.
This is one of the scenarios that Bonifacio Global City wants to address.
Being a safe, and walkable city, BGC’s master planner and developer, Fort Bonifacio Development Corporation (FBDC), collaborated with its very own community to bring BGC Greenway Park to the public.
The BGC Greenway Park is a 1.6-kilometer stretch of landscaped expanse that is poised to be the longest urban park in the Metro — its length close to New York City’s The High Line.
BGC Greenway Park lies at the western part of the city. From one end, it connects McKinley Parkway to different offices and residential buildings such as the Bellagio, Bonifacio Ridge, and all the way to the Net Plaza.
Stroll, lounge, and workout
BGC Greenway Park provides everyone a quiet respite from the hustle and bustle of daily living. People will find BGC Greenway Park as a safe place to run/jog, bike, or walk pets. It’s also a place to hold outdoor events such as Sunday markets, film screenings, and other social functions.
FBDC is set to transfer the management and maintenance duties of the park to the Bonifacio Global City Estate Association, as part of the latter’s mandate to keep the BGC community a safe and suitable place for residents, workers, and visitors alike.
BGC Greenway Park is open to the public daily from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.
