Eton Properties signs new office deal in Makati project

The company maintains office leasing as among its priority business segments this year

Eton Properties Philippines is gaining pace on the office leasing segment as the company, along with the rest of the country, eases out of the Covid-19 pandemic.

In a statement, Eton Properties disclosed that a triple A construction firm signed a three-year contract for lease of a whole floor spanning more than 1,000 sq ms. of its Blakes Tower development located near the Makati CBD.

“Office leasing remains a priority segment of Eton’s business, as we see a sustained demand following the country’s easing of restrictions. We aim to provide flexible office spaces that would increase productivity of our tenants’ workforce,” says Eton Properties Executive Director, Kyle Tan.

Blakes Tower is a mixed-use building in the mixed-use complex of Eton WestEnd Square, which provides and caters to a variety of experiences and needs through its retail component. Blakes Tower adopts a vertical township concept with specially curated components like offices and residences in a single development, offering businesses a solution through work-life integration.

At 36-storeys, Blakes Tower has 11,000 sqms. of available gross leasable office area, which can be retrofitted into hybrid cuts at varying office size requirements ranging from 1,000 sq ms. and above for more functionality. It has allocated 11 floors for office spaces, and 15 floors for residential units.

Blakes Tower was a Highly Commended awardee for Best Mega Mixed-Use Development in the 2021 Asia Property Awards (Philippines). According to Tan, the development proves to be the best solution and return strategy for businesses, looking to recover from the pandemic.

“By offering flexible office units and residences for employees within the same building located in a prime location, Blakes Tower assures work-life integration for individuals and uninterrupted business operations for companies,” says Tan.
