Laurent Part: Your New "Smart" Home in Araneta City

Araneta City has long been a popular place to spend time with loved ones thanks to its accessibility. These days, excitement among those who have grown very familiar with the district is reaching a new high as anticipation for the opening of Gateway Mall 2—the expansion area for Gateway Mall which will soon feature a vibrant roster of new restaurants, cafes, and shops—is touted to be a significant milestone as early as now.

With multiple surrounding terminals, railway lines, and transport hubs, not to mention the world of lifestyle experiences that abound in the area, Metro Manila dwellers have often dubbed the Araneta City the “center of the universe.” Property giant Megaworld presents Filipinos a chance to live at the core of this iconic district, offering a high-rise residential condo uniquely equipped with smart technology.

The 39-story Laurent Park is Megaworld’s first property within the expansive Manhattan Garden complex inside the revitalized Araneta City. It’s just a few minutes from the Smart Araneta Coliseum, Farmers Market, New Frontier Theater, and Cubao Expo, as well as hotels, large commercial outlets, and office towers.

“The launch of Laurent Park in Araneta City is setting the tone for a more premium residential experience and more exciting things to come. This aligns with the rising wave of new and exceptional commercial and leisure developments. We look forward to bringing Megaworld’s expertise to the residential component of Araneta City,” says Eugene Lozano, senior vice president for sales and marketing, Megaworld Manhattan Gardens.
