A pocket urban center in
Balintawak emerges with exciting new features that will invigorate the bustling
Quezon City district. Cloverleaf, an 11-hectare mixed-use, sustainable
community of Ayala Land has marked a milestone with the opening of Ayala Malls
Cloverleaf, its first commercial development within the estate.
“The malls will bring new
business here at Cloverleaf and, as envisioned, will spur a significant number
of enterprise andjob opportunities in this part of Quezon City,” said Jay
Teodoro, Estate Head of Cloverleaf. “We hope to transform the area into a dynamic
urban haven that provides the community an organized, secure, and highly
accessible place for both work and leisure.”
Ayala Malls Cloverleaf is
located along A. Bonifacio Avenue but is also accessible from EDSA through the
newly opened Cloverleaf Drive entrance adjacent to the Balintawak LRT station.
It will offer a wide array of shopping, dining and entertainment choices spread
across 40,000 square meters of leasable commercial space. As the primary retail offering
in Cloverleaf, it is expected to promote community events and give the public a
glimpse of life in the emerging urban center.
The mall is part of
Cloverleaf’s first phase which also includes residential developments designed
around refreshing pocket parks.Ayala Land residential brands Alveo Land and
Avida Land are currently constructing multiple-tower developments with 600 and
2,000 units, respectively. About 2,600 jobs would have been generated by
ongoing construction activity and operating facilities in the urban center by
2020 whilean estimated 15,000 new jobs are projected to be created upon its
full development.
“Soon, there will be
residential towers to complete the community, and we are looking forward to the
second phase of the development which includes an office and new retail formats
with a pedestrian walkway that connects to the LRT Balintawak station,” shared
Teodoro.
While Cloverleaf primarily
serves communities in the northern side of Metro Manila, specifically Quezon
City and Caloocan, forthcoming infrastructure and transport systems will make
it more accessible to a larger population. The Metro Manila Skyway Stage 3 road
will have an access ramp to the project which will effectively take people only
20 minutes to get to the place from Makati. A series of interconnected pathways
and landscaped walkways will be built from the LRT station to A. Bonifacio where
pedestrians converge to redirect the flow and ease any road blocks along EDSA.
With its diverse mix of
property offerings, modern infrastructure underway,and a Balintawak community
brimming with potential, Cloverleaf is indeed a sustainable urban community in
the making.
