History
editThe Trump Tower Manila showroom opened in early 2012, although the company stated that unit reservations started in September 2011.[3] The groundbreaking ceremony of the building began in June 2012, with a scheduled opening in November 2017.[4][5] Construction was nearly finished as of November 2016. The $150 million tower stands 57 stories high on completion.[6]
Design and architecture
editCentury City Development Corp., a unit of Century Properties Group, developed the residential skyscraper, under license from real estate mogul and the elected President of the United States Donald Trump, through Trump Marks Philippines LLC.[7]
The design concept of Trump Tower Manila showcases a 'peeled' façade that incorporates internal balconies. This architectural feature is defined by the top and bottom corners that peel away. The façade also serves an environmentally responsive function, incorporating light shelves and shading systems to adapt to the building's orientation in relation to the sun's path.[8]
