Ty family-led GT Capital Holdings Inc. (GT Capital) has struck a deal to host a new campus for Ateneo de Manila University in General Trias, Cavite.
The new campus is expected to open by 2030 at a 15-hectare parcel of land. Riverpark is the largest township development of GT Capital’s property development arm, Federal Land Inc., and joint venture Federal Land NRE Global Inc. (FNG).
The estate currently hosts a UNIQLO Logistics Facility and will soon have SM City General Trias..
By 2026, Riverpark residents will gain direct access to the Open Canal Interchange of the Cavite-Laguna Expressway, significantly improving travel time to and from the township.
Mixed-use estate
In May, FNG reported the 100-percent takeup of the first tranche of commercial lots at Riverpark. The buyers will develop these lots into office, retail and other mixed-use facilities.
‘Ateneo’s presence in Riverpark not only strengthens the educational landscape of Cavite but also uplifts the lives of the communities we serve,’ GT Capital vice chair Alfred Ty said in a press statement on Monday.
‘Our investment in this campus reflects our long-term commitment to creating sustainable value for generations of Filipinos, anchored on the values of excellence and service,’ Ty added.
‘The new Ateneo campus in Riverpark allows us to extend our mission and provide more families in Cavite and nearby provinces with access to quality education rooted in our Jesuit tradition,’ Ateneo de Manila University president Fr. Roberto Yap said.
