Case Study
CompletedMetrogate-Silang, Philippines for 50,000 low income
A secure, sustainable, custom-designed new town built for 50,000 low-income residents relocated from the urban slums of Manila. Lot sizes of 100 m² predominate, enabling ease of micro-financing so families can own their own home.
Town Centre amenities include a multi-level clubhouse, fitness and function facilities, a golf driving range, swimming and tennis, children's playgrounds, a wet & dry market, preschool and grade school, a church, and a theme park.
A model for what's next
Metrogate-Silang demonstrates the same modular, master-planned approach Whole Earth Communities will replicate for refugee and displaced populations worldwide.
