Project Brief

Introduction 

Beautiful things come in pairs. BSA Twin Towers, a soaring 55-storey landmark, is located at the most progressive hub of financial, corporate and social activity, the Ortigas Business District. BSA Twin Towers is strategically located between SM Megamall and The Podium, Asian Development Bank and San Miguel Corporation.

A marvel of architectural design. Its twin pyramid peaks-through which one can see the sky-works on the spirit like a balm, both calming and revitalizing. While its granite and glass structure is an impressive ode to modernity.

Every square foot is a creative collaboration of detail and material, of comfort and function, of grace and elegance.

The architectural designs are modern, in step with the latest trends in Hongkong and United States. Wrought iron grills and reflective glass are dominant, giving the structures a distinctive character of aesthetic durability and timeless elegance.

These two imposing structures majestically visible in the country’s premier commercial grounds is both a masterpiece of the heart and a cerebral choice for investment. Just a short walk from the leisure and fun at St. Francis Square Mall, Robinson’s Galleria, Podium, Shangri-La Mall and Star Mall. A neighbor to medical institutions like Medical City, Cardinal Medical Center and VRPMC. Close to several of the country’s premiere educational institutions such as University of Asia and the Pacific, St. Pedro Poveda, La Salle Greenhills, Lourdes School, Immaculate Concepcion Academy, Xavier School and St. Paul Pasig. Next to the house of worship at Our Lady of Peace Shrine, Christ’s Commission Fellowship, Greenhills Christian Fellowship, St. Francis of Assisi and Victory Church, and a stone’s throwaway from multinational companies like Meralco and Philippine Stock Exchange.

A lifestyle of privilege. A true paradigm of luxury. A rare investment opportunity.
