The building is located on the 1,944-square-meter (20,930 sq ft) lot bounded by EDSA, Connecticut, and Florida Streets in Barangay Greenhills, San Juan, Metro Manila.[1]

Features

With a total of 50 storeys including basement level/s,[1] the Primex Tower will become the tallest building in San Juan, Metro Manila upon its completion. Designed by JSLA Architects,[2] it will have 41,000 m2 (440,000 sq ft) of total leasable office space.[3] Its first 12 floors will be allotted for above-ground and basement parking, while office spaces will occupy the next 27 floors and the last 10 will be occupied by the Pullman Manila hotel.[4] A Maserati showroom occupies a commercial space at the ground floor.[5]

Billboards are also hung on the building's northern and eastern side.

History

[edit]

Real estate developer, Primex Corporation announced in 2017 that it would be building the Primex Tower.[3] [6][7] The groundbreaking ceremony for the building was held a year later on July 11, 2018.[1]

In December 2020, Primex secured a deal with Accor to open a hotel named Pullman Manila at the Primex Tower. The hotel under Accor's Pullman hotel brand will occupy the building's ten topmost floors.[4][8]

The building topped-off by early 2022.[9]
