Derfor skal du bo nær PBCom Tower
PBCom Tower is a 259‑metre, 52‑storey office skyscraper on Ayala Avenue at V.A. Rufino Street in Makati’s central business district. Completed in 2000, it was once the tallest building in the Philippines and remains the tallest in Makati today. Travellers usually look it up not because it’s a tourist site, but because hotels often reference it as a location marker. If you’re staying in Salcedo or Legazpi Village, you’ll pass it while walking Ayala Avenue. The key thing to know upfront: this is a private office tower, so what matters for visitors is the neighbourhood around it, not going inside.
Om PBCom Tower
The building’s full name is the Philippine Bank of Communications Tower, and it is PBCom’s headquarters. It was developed by Filinvest Asia Corporation together with PBCom and designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill in collaboration with local firm G.F. & Partners. The tower rises 52 storeys above ground with multiple basement levels and was built as a Class A office building rather than a mixed‑use or tourism project.
When it opened in 2000, PBCom Tower became the tallest building in the Philippines, a title it held until 2017. While newer towers have since surpassed it nationally, it remains the tallest structure in Makati. For visitors, the experience is purely external: you see it as part of the city’s skyline and as a reference point while moving through Ayala Avenue, Salcedo Village, and nearby commercial areas.
