MANILA, Philippines — A rising 52-storey tower in the heart of Binondo, the world’s oldest Chinatown, will have its full glory in the second quarter of 2027.
The residential structure to be called Ongpin Tower — being situated a rare tri-corner lot at Ongpin, Gonzalo Puyat, and F. Torres streets — is the first and flagship project of Keen and Worth Property Developers, Inc.
“Ongpin Tower fills a gap in Binondo’s residential market,” said the developer’s chief operating office Kimberly Wong in a statement. “Our aim is to build a meaningful home rooted in legacy, not just another development.”
The tower’s location is a prime address that blends historical significance with real estate potential — right in the middle of modern living where schools, medical centers, places of worship, and shopping malls are all within reach.
The building also embodies a rare harmony of timeless design and modern functionality. Each of its 226 residential units are thoughtfully appointed with high-quality fixtures, offering an elevated sense of ease, comfort, and exclusivity.
Engineered with sophistication and privacy in mind, Ongpin Tower features a low-density layout — with only seven, four, or two units per floor — creating a serene and exclusive atmosphere amid the vibrant heart of Binondo.

Further reflecting its commitment to forward-thinking living, the development which tops off this December includes electrive vehicle charging-ready parking spaces, ensuring residents are equipped for a sustainable future.
Wong described Ongpin Tower being designed for those who value legacy, location, and long-term investment, “It is a home built with purpose — one that honors the stories of the past while embracing the aspirations of the future.”
The modern design is anchored by Filipino-Chinese family values: space for togetherness, privacy when needed, and flexibility for every life stage.
Every home features elegant finishes, and practical layouts to complement with multigenerational living, highlighting three distinct collections — Residences, Estates, and Penthouse.
Amenities include a jacuzzi, gym, playground, basketball court, multipurpose areas, a resort-style infinity lap pool and jacuzzi, a Sky Park and Rooftop garden with city views, and a rooftop helipad for urgent access.
