MANILA, Philippines – Employees consider their work places as their second home. They spend at least eight to 10 hours a day inside the office and another one to two hours travelling to and from there. As such, work location and accessibility are major considerations when applying for a job. Robinsons Offices, Robinsons Land Corporation’s Office Buildings Division, recognizes this fact, and used it as one of its requirements to develop Robinsons Cyberscape Alpha and Beta.
Cyberscape Alpha and Beta will have 25 stories and 36 stories respectively and will have a combined gross floor area of about 80,000 sqm by mid-2013. Both buildings will have wide column-free spaces which are perfect for BPO and call center offices, and commercial spaces for lease.
Strategically located within the Ortigas CBD, these new developments will be within easy access from EDSA/Ortigas Avenue and less than five minutes away from Ortigas MRT station. FX/taxi lanes and other public transport vehicles in the area assure easy accessibility to employees.
It is also near Robinsons Galleria where they can have a great time shopping and dining after a day’s work. Top executives who wish to live near their office can opt to stay in the nearby residential developments such as Galleria Regency and East of Galleria condominiums.
For visiting clients and team building activities, two Inter-Continental Hotel Group (IHG) brand hotels – Crowne Plaza and Holiday Inn – provide luxurious accommodations and multipurpose functions rooms.
These buildings will be equipped with high-speed elevators, building management system addressing security safety and fire protection, CCTV surveillance, ample provisions for entrance cables of telephone lines, back-up power; and Variable Refrigerant Volume (VRV) air conditioning system for effective operation and maintenance.
They will also have ample parking and overhead/underground water tanks to ensure uninterrupted operations and services within the buildings.
