PROPERTY giant Megaworld Corporation is set to build a 7.5-hectare commercial town center in its upcoming Bacolod township given the strong tourism potential in the province, the company announced on Tuesday. In a statement, Megaworld said it is constructing the Northill Town Center, a 7.5-hectare commercial development within its 53-hectare Northill Gateway township in Negros Occidental, which will feature dining, retail, leisure and tourism amenities. Megaworld noted that the horizontal commercial development will mostly be composed of stand-alone two-storey structures of retail shops and dining establishments, which will be surrounded by landscaped parks and open spaces. “An iconic chapel will also be built to serve as a major landmark for the township,” Megaworld added. The company said that construction of the 7.5 hectare commercial town center will commence early next year.
