PUBLICLY listed Century Properties Group Inc. (CPG), in partnership with Asian Carmakers Corp., on Tuesday opened the Asian Century Center, a P1.6-billion green office building in Bonifacio Global City (BGC) in Taguig.
Prior to its scheduled opening, the 21-story development has been 75-percent leased. Three out of the four IT companies with confirmed leases are holding office in the building, which has a net leasable area of 29,628 square meters.
Asian Carmakers plans to put up a showroom of Peugeot at the ground floor.
Once fully leased out, the building is expected to contribute P500 million in annual revenues to CPG’s leasing portfolio. “We are very pleased with the outcome and early success of Asian Century Center. We thank the Asian Carmakers Corp. for a fruitful partnership and our project stakeholders who gave their trust and support in us. The addition of this green building into the office inventory of BGC and Taguig City is quite timely as more companies look for well-designed and efficient office spaces to locate in,” CPG Chairman and CEO Jose EB Antonio said.
Asian Century Center is accredited by the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (Peza) and meets its strict requirements of 100-percent power backup, provision for high-speed Internet and infrastructure, and a building management system.
The tower has been pre-certified for the core and shell rating of LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), a globally recognized green building and sustainability certification system. Precertification is awarded to projects with achievable sustainable targets that demonstrate the project’s commitment to LEED certification. Asian Century Center is working towards a LEED Silver status, the company said.
The real-estate brokerage services firm Leechiu Property Consultants is the appointed exclusive leasing manager for Asian Century Center.
