Vertical living is notorious for not having open spaces, but just like most DMCI communities, this is not a problem for East Ortigas Mansions. Tropical and lush green landscapes surround the community. You can have a picnic in the landscaped gardens and take the kids out for a walk on a Sunday morning.
Advanced utilities
The average buyer and renter may not inquire about cables and water supply a lot, but these utilities are actually very important. These are the things that make condo living convenient and comfortable. In East Ortigas Mansions, the water tank is elevated, which means it does not require continuous operation of pumps. This technology is more expensive but worth investing on because it can accommodate such high demand and still provide reliable and strong water pressure. Cables are also underground so you won’t have to worry about strong winds and storms knocking them down. Plus, no more of those “spaghetti cables” eyesore.
