Upper East House pays tribute to historic ‘White Mansion’

The three-story Upper East House that pays homage to the historic “White Mansion” of the former Bacolod-Murcia Milling Company complex is the latest addition to Megaworld’s 34-hectare The Upper East in Bacolod City.

The Upper East was recently named “Real Estate Project of the Year in the Philippines” at the World Business Outlook Awards 2023, Harold Geronimo, Megaworld vice president for public relations and media affairs, said on Thursday, June 22, during a media tour of the Upper East House.

The Upper East House is a nod to the township’s historic past as it is located on the former Bacolod-Murcia Milling Company property, he said.

The Upper East House, located within the curated park beside McDonald’s Upper East, will serve as the township’s information center and showroom, and will be open to Megaworld clients in July, Geronimo said.

The Upper East House has a spacious veranda and outdoor lounge with a water cascade to welcome visitors.

The staircase outside leads guests to the upper ground floor, which hosts the reception area, lounge, negotiation area, and a gallery, which Geronimo said will feature photos and other memorabilia of BMMC.

The lower ground floor hosts another negotiation area for clients and lounge, meeting rooms, a bar, toilets, security room, and Broker’s office.

On the second floor are marketing offices, a pantry, and training rooms.

The house has an elevator for seniors and persons with disabilities.

The Upper East House is located just beside the refurbished, decades-old BMMC train, which now forms part of the “World’s First-Ever McDonald’s Dessert Station on a Train” that won a Silver Award under the Specialized Project or Purpose-Built Category at the 2022 Property and Real Estate Excellence Awards by FIABCI Philippines, Geronimo said.

The township is also a recipient of a Gold Award under the Master Plan Category, also from the 2022 Property and Real Estate Excellence Awards
by FIABCI Philippines, he added.*
