Urban Deca Towers in Mandaluyong: Micro Living Condominium Built for Yuppies and Collegiate Students

Wazzup Pilipinas!

To everyone who is looking for affordable and semi-furnished condominiums, there is a new condominium project that will soon be towering at a height of 42 stories at No. 69 Sierra Madre street, Barangay Highway Hills, in Mandaluyong and just along EDSA for that added convenience that will surely catch the attention of our mid-class single upwardly professionals, or otherwise known as "yuppies," and colleges students.

Your friendly neighborhood pambansang blogger was invited to the groundbreaking ceremonies of another great condominium project that will reach out more to the younger generation that needs more time for themselves and their career or studies rather than wasting their time in the busy streets of the metro.

Aimed to address the need for a quality lifestyle for long-hour commuters, the Urban Deca Towers project ultimately becomes a weekday halfway house or private dwelling unit for those who would otherwise co-share apartment or dormitories. It is expected to be finished by third quarter of 2017 but now pre-sells at prices starting at P875,000 which equates to a monthly amortization of around P7500 only.

The condominium features 1,148 condominium units and mixed-use commercial spaces for a convenience store, laundry facility, gym and restaurants. It will also have large common spaces for lounging or entertaining friends.

Semi-furnished units will include a living package consisting of air-conditioning unit, microwave oven, a bed, cabinets, and a dinette for two. Every dwelling unit averages 13.06 square meters.

Security will be tight with 24-hours security and CCTV cameras. There will be a four-level basement parking with 156 slots and 4-high speed elevators to service the floors.

Instead of enduring several hours of travel, and spending so much in commuting or gas if you are a car-owner, aside from the horrible stress of traffic and pollution, Urban Deca Towers is the perfect fit for modern urban living.
