New tower to transform Makati skyline

By Manila Standard Business

The Yuchengco Centre, rising along Sen. Gil J. Puyat Avenue, is set to transform one of Makati’s emerging commercial districts. The modern office landmark integrates sustainability, accessibility and convenience.

It will provide much-needed premium office spaces while enhancing the area’s retail landscape as the only commercial building slated for completion in the first quarter of 2026.

The Yuchengco Centre, at the intersection of Sen. Gil J. Puyat Avenue and Nicanor Garcia Street, is strategically positioned near major transportation hubs. While this part of Makati is not as developed as the traditional business districts, its proximity to key roads and transit options — such as buses and jeepneys — makes it a highly accessible office address.

Unlike traditional office developments, The Yuchengco Centre redefines workplace convenience with an integrated retail hub. It will also feature The Yuchengco Park, a public art space with lush landscaping and sculptures honoring Jose Rizal. A three-story roof deck garden will provide exclusive amenities for tenants, while a grand lobby seamlessly connects to retail establishments extending to the second floor. This dynamic environment ensures that tenants and office workers have effortless access to everyday essentials, dining and lifestyle amenities — all within the building.

Designed by Japan’s Nikken Sekkei Ltd. and W.V. Coscolluela Architects, The Yuchengco Centre prioritizes sustainability and wellness. It is LEED and WELL pre-certified, ensuring energy-efficient operations and a workplace environment that enhances health and productivity. With the largest floor plate in a prime Makati central business district building (4,400 square meters), the building provides highly efficient office spaces tailored for modern businesses.

Developed by House of Investments and Sojitz Corporation, The Yuchengco Centre is more than just a new office tower — it is a catalyst for growth in this evolving area of Makati.

As Makati continues to expand beyond its traditional business districts, The Yuchengco Centre is leading the transformation, offering businesses a prime address with superior accessibility, integrated lifestyle amenities and sustainable office spaces.

“We’ve set a new benchmark for what an office and retail space should be in Makati,” said David Leechiu, chief executive of Leechiu Property Consultants. “The Yuchengco Centre is not just another tower — it’s a bold statement about the future of business in the city. The Makati central business district is undergoing a massive renaissance, and The Yuchengco Centre stands at the forefront, driving this new era of growth and innovation.”
