Central Roxas Boulevard – Leading luxury real estate developer Anchor Land hosted an exclusive and intimate gathering, bringing together the country’s most esteemed high-end brokers, industry experts, and members of the media. Held on February 26, 2025, the private event took place at Admiral Grandsuites, one of Anchor Land’s luxury developments in Central Roxas Boulevard. 

Adding to the evening’s prestige, the event was hosted by renowned columnist, philanthropist, and interior designer Tessa Prieto. Guests were treated to a special preview of Anchor Land’s upcoming luxury residential project, The Panorama Manila, while gaining valuable market perspectives from an impressive lineup of speakers. Featured experts included Andoy Beltran, Vice President and Head of Business Development & Market Education at First Metro Securities Brokerage Corporation; Alejandro ‘Andy’ Manalac, Vice President at CREBA and Co-Founder & Chair of Havitas Developments Corporation; Architect Aaron Yu of Asya Design; and Elizabeth Ventura, President of Anchor Land.

With in-depth discussions on luxury bayside living, investment opportunities, and modern architecture, the event reinforced Anchor Land’s commitment to transforming the skylines of Manila Chinatown, Bay City Manila, and Davao City, as well as the modern waterfront district of Central Roxas Boulevard.

Your ‘trophy’ property 

“If there’s one thing that makes Central Roxas Boulevard the most prized real estate today, it’s the unobstructed view of the bay. Consider your other luxury properties as medals—because this one will be your trophy. Owning a property here is like owning a piece of history,” says Manalac. 

With a legacy of distinction among the nation’s wealthiest and most accomplished, Central Roxas Boulevard stands as a symbol of prestige, setting itself apart from the bustling central business districts of Makati, Ortigas, and Bonifacio Global City. More than just a prime location, it is a dynamic hub where artistic influence, historical significance, and modern conveniences converge—reminiscent of powerhouse bayside districts like Sydney Harbour in Australia, The Palm in Dubai, and Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong. 

As Central Roxas Boulevard continues to evolve, it is rapidly emerging as a premier investment corridor, redefining luxury and opportunity in the heart of Manila. Anchor Land takes this transformation a step further with its latest luxury residential project, The Panorama Manila. 

“This stunning addition to our esteemed Admiral Complex will set a new standard for elegant bayfront living. With unobstructed sunset views, world-class amenities, and a distinguished address, The Panorama Manila is poised to attract top-tier clients seeking a home that reflects their achievements.” shares Ventura. With its curated developments, Central Roxas Boulevard exudes exclusivity and privacy, catering to a refined lifestyle for the most discerning individuals. 

A Modern architectural marvel on the rise

Beyond discussions on location appreciation, the event also provided a deeper understanding of the architectural vision that brought The Panorama Manila to life. In a rare moment for real estate gatherings, guests had the opportunity to delve into the design philosophy, innovative elements, and meticulous craftsmanship that define this landmark development. 

As Anchor Land’s trusted collaborator for over two decades, Asya Design has played a pivotal role in transforming each residence into a true masterpiece, including the soon-to-rise The Panorama Manila. “In developing The Panorama Manila, we knew we had to honor the rich history and cultural significance of this storied district. This site is home to some of the country’s most important heritage landmarks and offers a front-row view of the world-famous Manila Bay. This iconic stretch has witnessed the presence of presidents, popes, and other distinguished figures, making it a location unlike any other,” says Yu. 

Ventura adds, “Imagine stepping onto your balcony and taking in the same breathtaking view that distinguished figures have admired for centuries.” 

Like a mirror to the sea, the architecture of The Panorama Manila reflects the passage of seasons and time, superimposing the city in a fluid dialogue—an Architecture of Time. It offers residents a 360-degree panoramic escape in full sight, sound, and senses, making it a true sanctuary above the city. 

“At Anchor Land, we understand that true luxury extends beyond a prestigious address—it’s about crafting spaces that meet the refined tastes and high expectations of the elite market. This is why every detail of The Panorama Manila is meticulously designed to achieve a seamless blend of exclusivity, functionality, and timeless elegance,” concludes Ventura.
