Projected sales from the new residential development to reach P8-billion
Megaworld subsidiary Global-Estate Resorts, Inc. (GERI) is launching a new residential development in its Renaissance complex along Meralco Avenue, Ortigas Center in Pasig City.
To be called The Fifth, it will be the fifth residential cluster to rise within the Renaissance community, in close proximity to the business district of Ortigas Center, and the cities of Quezon, Pasig, San Juan and Mandaluyong. It is strategically located right beside St. Paul’s College-Pasig and just less than 5 minutes away from the Asian Institute of Management, Poveda College, University of Asia and the Pacific, and The Medical City.
Rising 36-storeys, The Fifth will offer units ranging from Studio (up to 37 square meters), one-bedroom (up to 86 square meters), two-bedroom (up to 137 square meters) and three-bedroom (up to 229 square meters). All units will have their own balconies offering cityscape views of Ortigas, Quezon City and the Antipolo mountains.
The Fifth boasts abundant recreational amenities exclusive for its residents, which include the Sky Lounge and Viewing Decks, Cabanas, Al Fresco Bar, Lounging and Yoga Deck, outdoor playground, children’s playroom, fitness center, swimming pool, whirlpool bathtubs, function hall, coffee shop, spa and a CoLab Working Space.

We are very excited about this new residential community,” says Karen Arcilla, head of sales and marketing, Megaworld Global-Estate, Inc.
The new residential development will generate around P8-billion in sales, and is expected for completion by 2024.
