Metrobank Center
The Metrobank Center, formerly known as the Federal Land Tower and also known as the Metrobank Financial Tower, is a 66-story mixed-use supertall skyscraper in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig, Metro Manila. Standing at a total height of 318 m (1,043 ft), it is the tallest building and structure in the Philippines, surpassing the previous record holder, the PBCom Tower, by 59 m (194 ft).
The Metrobank Center was developed by the Bonifacio Landmark Realty and Development Corporation, a joint venture between Federal Land, Inc. (the real estate subsidiary of the Metrobank Group) and ORIX Corporation.
The Metrobank Center is part of Federal Land's Grand Central Park mixed-used complex. The Metrobank Center is connected through a common podium with the Grand Hyatt Residences, a 45-storey condominium skyscraper. The complex has a second residential tower, the Grand Hyatt Residence South Tower which stands 50 storeys high.
The building's pinnacle height is 318 m (1,043 ft) while its height up to its roof is around 259.1 m (850 ft).
The Grand Hyatt Manila is a major tenant of the building. The hotel has 461 guest rooms and occupies the top 25 floors of the building. It also hosts three major restaurants, namely The Grand Kitchen, No. 8 China House, and The Peak. It also has meeting and events rooms covering 2,281 m2 (24,550 sq ft).
Wong & Ouyang, as well as Casas + Architects Inc. were the architectural firms behind the Metrobank Center. Ove Arup & Partners was responsible for the wind, structural, and seismic engineering of the building. Arup devised its damp outrigger system to make the building resistant to seismic shock and wind. Concrete outrigger walls were installed in the Metrobank Center's two mechanical floors.
In September 2008, Taguig Mayor Sigfrido Tiñga announced that Federal Land will be building a 66-storey skyscraper that would surpass the PBCom Tower, which was then the tallest building in the country, in height. The construction of the building, then dubbed as the "Federal Land Tower" was scheduled to commence within 2009.
The project would be formally unveiled by Federal Land in March 2011 with the groundbreaking ceremony taking place on March 24, 2011. Initially it was projected to be completed in 2014. While the building was under construction in August 2017, a fire incident occurred, though no injuries were reported.
