lol! how....professional... i'm still waiting for the philippines to have tunnel/ highstreet highbrids, like they do in texas. i saw a documentary about it, and not only is it convenient, but it's supposedly really safe since it's well lit and well guarded....then again, it'll prolly be a pickpockets hangout if we have one here....hmhmhm...

the main idea is that you've got tunnels under the city that lead to key locations within the city. the tunnels have spaces in them which store owners can rent, and the whole place is basically just like a huge underground mall...

that's actually hard to pull off with the kind of geography we have, paperboy. Even basements are not advisable in the Philippines. Sea level, weather, and the calamities statistics. It's too expensive if it's that scale you described.

yeah...the main problem with being on an island... though it would prove to be a very big achievement if an architect was able to pull it off in makati...it would solve the big transportation problem.

then again, floods do come easy in the philippines, but as long as the place has enough functional drains, then it wouldn't pose a threat. it's "doable" but it's not practical...at least as of now...

Trinoma is awesome. 0.0 Yonie, have you made your way to that mall yet?

I like Trinoma. But my profs have a bitter reaction when that topic's brought up. They're probably bitter they didn't get the project. >.>

ah... the posh mall for MRT commuters... ROFL!

concerning subways, it's not impossible, but improbable. nahahati ang luzon sa 3 fault lines....

ah... the posh mall for MRT commuters... ROFL!

that's so mean! I'm totally all for bringing up the place. Like what they did with cubao. Before it was a hopeless area. Since the addition of Gateway all the A, B, and C markets are put together.

And I think it's the same for Trinoma, and I like that about buildings. The important thing is that it should cater to the B and C, because I hate elitist architecture.

[hunter71485]

Actually Cubao is practical, because of its established trade route history. Trinoma, on the other hand, sits in the middle of a crossroad. Nobody from B and C who plans to shop will actually spend much transport fare...

There's already SM which has done pretty much the work for them.

And because it's such a nice place people really do go there. They take their families there, coz the kids get a kick out of the fountains, hehe.

maqueen san ako baba patungo trinoma? alam ko ang mrt, anong station ako baba, tapos anong jeep? andito ako paranaque

@bakashi: dapat nag-apply na ako dito, kaso nawalan ako ng gana, me mga natitirang kumpanya pa pala sa bacolod na pwedeng aplyan, dun nalg ako kaysa dito. pumunta nga ako dito para tingnan kung mabuti ngang tirhan dito, kaso eh kumpara mo ang manila at bacolod, unanimous decision! syempre IT na mga kumpanya inaapply ko

@underground mall: heh, sa SM nga samin malapad nga, kaso hindi nakapagsecond floor kase sobrang malambot ang lupa! haha baka raw gumuho pag sobrang bigat. ano pa kaya pag me basement...... instant kill.

even if that went through i'd never go. im freaking claustrophobic and i just remembered nung papunta na kami dito sa manila. sumakay kami ng shuttle, bigla akong naging MASSIVE uncomfortable sa sikip. hindi pa nasisira ang pinto pero parang sisigaw na ako, nung magsira na parang...... aaaghhh buti nga kinontrol ko for 30 mins, grabe ang pawis ko, nagiisip lang ako ng langit, saka "wag sumigaw, wag sumigaw, malawak dito". nung sumakay na sa eroplano grabe nagrereklamo ako ang sikip! kaya nagsub kami ng kasama para sa window seat, at least dun malawak sa labas
