Greenfield Development Corporation (GDC) recently received a prestigious award from the Department of Human Settlement and Urban Development (DHSUD) Region 4A Cabalarzon, in recognition of its unwavering dedication to sustainable urban planning. This accolade underscores GDC's commitment to crafting master-planned communities that strike a precise balance between development and preserving open green spaces.
DHSUD’s recognition highlights the significant contributions of GDC to the nation's urban landscape. In a world focused on rapid urbanization, GDC stands out with its innovative approach to sustainable development.
DHSUD, formerly known as the Housing and Land Use Regulatory Board (HLURB), has been instrumental in shaping the urban landscape of the nation. Established under Republic Act 11201 on February 14, 2019, DHSUD operates as the primary government agency overseeing housing, human settlement, and urban development.
HLURB, the precursor to DHSUD, has been a vital resource in providing technical assistance to local government units for comprehensive land use plans. Their responsibilities extend to regulating housing, land development, homeowners associations, and resolving disputes related to these areas, all while maintaining a commitment to competence and integrity.
The recent award ceremony underscored GDC's remarkable contributions to urban development. GDC's ability to foster thriving communities with an environmentally conscious approach was acknowledged and celebrated. Greenfield City's unique positioning as “the City within a Park” makes it a pioneer in sustainable urban development.
In a landscape where most developers focus primarily on maximizing spaces, Greenfield City in Sta. Rosa, Laguna stands out. Their innovative approach recognizes the essential value of open spaces. This 400-hectare mixed-use development embraces the concept of park living. The comprehensive development encompasses residential complexes, corporate and BPO offices, and lifestyle centers.
Greenfield City houses four residential communities—Trava, Solen Residences, Pramana and Zadia. These communities allocate 51% to 80% of their areas to open spaces, tree-lined roads, and playgrounds. They ensure that there are more open spaces than saleable land, truly encapsulating the concept of a city within a park.
Established in 1961, GDC began as a land-holding company. Their mission was to grow and develop their land into vibrant, living communities that kept both people and nature in mind. This mission is evident in their two main townships – Greenfield City in Sta Rosa and Greenfield District in Mandaluyong.
Whether nestled in the heart of the city center or embraced by the tranquility of the suburbs, Greenfield communities are meticulously designed to meet the evolving needs of residents. GDC ensures that each project aligns with contemporary lifestyles while fostering a sense of harmony with the environment.
As Filipinos continue to shape their narratives within these thoughtfully planned spaces, GDC remains steadfast in its mission to provide enduring, quality homes that stand the test of time. They envision a future where urban development and environmental sustainability go hand in hand, creating communities that are not only livable but also contribute positively to the environment.
Greenfield Development Corporation’s recent recognition by DHSUD is a testimonial to their commitment to sustainable urban planning. Their innovative approach to development, prioritizing open spaces and community living, sets them apart in the industry. As they continue to create sustainable and people-centric communities, they set the benchmark for developers nationwide.
As we move into the future, the need for sustainable urban development becomes increasingly crucial. Greenfield Development Corporation’s award-winning approach to urban planning serves as an inspiration for all. Let's join hands in supporting and promoting sustainable initiatives that contribute to a greener, better tomorrow.
