Sydney’s Greenwood Plaza launches new refurbishment by Crone Partners | Architecture And Design.
Garden Towers is a twin tower, premium grade residential development with retail and landscaped gardens designed by Crone architects in 2012. The site is located in Makati, in the heart of the retail district in the Philippines. The project consists of residential, retail and basement carpark levels that connect to Glorietta Shopping Centre at ground and basement levels. The residential towers house 682 apartments and are 60 and 51 levels each, with a total gross floor area of 127,000sqm.
The project is a 2 stage development with Tower 1 currently under construction.
Key features of the design include;

• Casual seating areas evoke a veranda/lanai feel
• Indoor garden lobby with high ceilings

Garden Amenities
• Significant portion of the 9,010 sqm lot is dedicated to exclusive gardens that also house the development’s pool and social amenities
