The Rise at Monterrazas is a residential condominium under-construction in Cebu City.
The Rise at Monterrazas is one of the planned features within the Monterrazas de Cebu, a mountainside development. It is a 200-hectare (490-acre) residential are covering barangays Guadalupe, Sapangdaku, Buhisan, and Tisa in Cebu City. It was a project of Genvi Development Corporation until 8990 HDC took over in 2019.[3] Slater Young is the industry partner.[4]
The plan to build The Rise in Guadalupe was first announced on August 24, 2023 by Young. The Rise was met with opposition and concerns of flooding from environmental groups with the building’s scale model appearing to cover a whole mountainside.[5][6][7] The concern was rooted to flooding caused by Typhoon Rai in 2021.[8]
The project was reportedly delayed to address the concerns. Groundbreaking took place around November 2024.[9]
Renewed interest and concern rose again after Cebu City experienced flooding after the onslaught of Typhoon Kalmaegi (Tino).[10]
Architecture and design
[edit]
The Rise at Monterrazas was designed by LLG Architects Design Studio with Leizle Go and Patrick Lendel Go as the principal architects in collaboration with engineer Slater Young.[11][12] Young said that the residential development was inspired from the Banaue Rice Terraces with the structure to “conform” rather than built against the natural terrain.[13] Responding to the initial environmental concerns in 2023, Young said that the project underwent 300 revisions.[8]
Nevertheless, the team enrolled the project to the BERDE of the Philippine Green Building Council (PHILGBC) and consulted with the United Architects of the Philippines to address the environmental concerns.[13][14]
The Rise at Monterrazas was given the jury award in the Unbuilt – Multi-Unit Housing (L >10 Floors) category at the 12th Architizer A+ Awards in 2024.[14][15]
Joshua Agar, a wind engineer and assistant professor at the UP Institute of Civil Engineering saud the design as presented in August 2023 will cause topographic amplification or wind exerted on The Rise will be fourfold compared to conventional design.[16]
