Masters Tower Cebu is a currently under-construction mixed-use skyscraper in Cebu City, Philippines.

History

[edit]

Construction of the Masters Tower Cebu was proposed as early as December 2019, when local developer Cebu Landmasters Inc. made a disclosure in the Philippine Stock Exchange that they plan to build an office-hotel building at the Cebu Business Park.[1]

In February 2021, Cebu Landmasters in another disclosure officially launched the Masters Tower Cebu despite the COVID-19 pandemic and maintained they are expecting a "robust" recovery of the national economy in the next few years.[2]

Groundbreaking took place in early 2021 and is projected to be complete by 2025.[3]

Architecture and design

[edit]

The Masters Tower Cebu is designed by United States-based Skidmore, Owings and Merrill along with local firm GF Partners and Architects.[3]

The building will be erected on a 2,840 m2 (30,600 sq ft) lot at the Cebu Business Park.[4] The building will have a structural height of 172 m (564 ft).[5]

Tenants

[edit]

The 195-room hotel, Sofitel Cebu City will be the main tenant of the Masters Tower Cebu. The building will also host office and retail spaces.[4]
