Il Corso, The Shopping Haven in the South
Every Cebuano dreams of a new city. And it’s about time it rises at the Philippines’ Queen City of the south.
The Il Corso at Citta di Mare prides itself on its waterfront lifestyle welcoming its refreshed shopping, dining and recreation key features. As a 10-hectare amenity directly fronting Mactan’s coast with the majestic view of Cebu’s mountains, it provides an entirely different shopping experience second to none. Because Il Corso is all about rest and recreation in lush proportions, it hightlights the convenience and fun of its boardwalks and walkways, particularly its walking bridge that links the entire Citta de Mare development guaranteeing a bike and pedestrian-friendly environment. Moreover, it has a gross floor area of 55 square meters with an ample parking area and facilities for public transport which caters to every shopper’s need.
Il Corso Perspective
The lifestyle strip boasts of a Central Piazza, in the midst of a central landscape garden, where one can find a amphitheater that can seat for 1, 000 – an ideal place for events and entertainment activities, boasting of the sea and lighted fountains.
Its partners include a supermarket hailing from the Robinson’s group and other department stores will be carrying local and foreign fashion brands and special outlets. There will also be an indoor mall, four digital cinemas and several amusement components offering entertainment at its best. Plus, locals and travelers alike have the opportunity to choose varied dining options fit for popular hangouts and casual dining.
To top all that off, Il Corso will be welcoming the renowned Lantaw Restaurant as part of its introductory offer. During yesterday’s press briefing at Quest Hotel, Pages Holding Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Bunny Pages said that Il Corso is one of the best projects Cebu will ever have, expressing that it was the perfect fit for their third branch.
Citta de Mare or “city by the sea” is a joint venture project of the Cebu City government and its leading property developer, Filinvest. Set to open in 2016, Il Corso takes advantage of its surroundings at the South Road Properties (SRP) which is envisioned to be one of Cebu’s top leisure hotspots.
Il Corso Perspective
Il Corso is ten minutes away from Cebu’s central business district and international port, and is not more than thirty minutes away from the Cebu International Airport.
Filinvest’s First Vice President for Visayas and Mindanao Projects Tristan Las Marias said that we only see drawings of the much-talked about seaside development but with Il Corso, “Cebu will see what SRP is supposed to be.”
