To be undertaken in partnership with the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA), this landmark project promises to elevate urban living in Metro Manila, combining residential, commercial, office, hotel, and recreational spaces into one seamless, sustainable, and thriving community. “Robinsons Land is committed to doing our part in nation building as we create sustainable, innovative, and dynamic spaces that enhance the quality of life for the communities we serve. The Bonifacio Capital District project embodies this aspiration, and we are excited to contribute to the growth and development of this vibrant area,” RLC Senior Vice-President and BU General Manager Mybelle V. Aragon-GoBio shared.
