March 17, 2010, 1:58pm

There are many things we need to count on – people, institutions, and our environment – so that we have some sense of security in our daily lives. One item on top of the checklist is a proper place of residence because this enables one to become the best person he can be in all aspects, for himself and for his family. Not many places can provide such assurance.

Cutting-edge. South Forbes Golf City is the largest fully-integrated, self-sustaining, and all-themed golf resort city at the Sta. Rosa-Tagaytay corridor, touted as the new metropolis in the South. Now, with the availability and continuous improvement of major infrastructure such as roads, communication systems, and electricity, this region is able to sustain the business and technology parks, educational institutions, and residential developments in the area.

Cohesive. South Forbes’ major feature is the creation of its 5 Clusters of Excellence where the Residential Cluster is supported by the Education, Business, Wellness, and Leisure Clusters. This synergistic circle provides every resident with a place to live, learn, work, shop, and play without leaving the confines of the city.

Clean. New Urbanism governs the planning and design of South Forbes in order to achieve the benefits of compact, mixed-use, and pedestrian neighborhoods. This way, there is a discernible center where most residences are within 10-minutes walk away.

Streets within the neighborhood form a connected network which disperses traffic by providing a variety of pedestrian and vehicular routes to any destination. And work and school are close enough so that most everyone can walk from their homes. Automobile dependence is greatly reduced and allows for a more breathable and comfortable environment.

In South Forbes, while children walk to the nearby schools like the Learning Links Academy of Sta. Rosa and South Forbes City Colleges, so too will their parents to South Forbes’ own Cyberpark for work.

Cosmopolitan. A unique characteristic of South Forbes’ residential district is its international-themed neighborhoods. This diversity is not limited to the architecture alone but includes as well the types of feature amenities vital to every development.

Bali Mansions, Nirwana Bali, and Phuket Mansions will have their resort-themed enclaves with pools surrounded by lush, tropical foliage and Châteaux de Paris will boast of its grand clubhouse and many themed gardens like that of the City of Lights itself. South Forbes adds to its diversity with two condominium projects: Scandia Suites and the Golf View Terraces.

Certain. There is no better way to live your life than in a place that offers many options on how to live it completely, diversely, and creatively.

South Forbes will have a full-time, 24-7 activity/program management team that will design individualized activity programs based on the lifestyle the resident has chosen, including activities categorized into the following: Work-related, Sports and Leisure, Civic-related, Self-Improvement, and Rest and Relaxation.

Coveted. Every resident is entitled to free golf membership to the world-class 18-hole South Forbes Golf and Leisure Club at no activation cost. Through the affiliation shared with the International Management Group (IMG) Sports Club, South Forbes members are extended privileged access and special discounts to 42 other golf and sports clubs worldwide.
