Elevated living at Riverpark
Emerging as the “Next Gen City of the South,” Riverpark is intended to be a key economic and industrial center that offers smart living and lifestyle-enhancing developments within a river and parkside setting. Designed to exemplify future Filipino living, it is seamlessly transforming into a dynamic community, thanks to many recent developments including FNG’s Yume at Riverpark, an 18-hectare Japanese-inspired residential neighborhood; Riverpark Trails, a 1.8-kilometer bike trail for all levels; and SM City General Trias, the largest regional mall in General Trias.

Riverpark also offers excellent accessibility and connectivity, easily reached from a number of access points. The Cavite-Laguna Expressway (CALAX) and future projects in the region, including the LRT Line 1 Extension, LRT Line 6A Cavite Extension, Cavite-Tagaytay-Batangas Expressway (CTBEX), Bataan-Cavite Interlink Bridge, and Sangley Point International Airport, will bring ease to all residents and workers in the estate.

Federal Land NRE Global Inc. (FNG) remains at the forefront of shaping innovative and sustainable real estate solutions. The collaboration with Fast Retailing Philippines marks a significant step forward, contributing to economic growth, job creation, and community development in the Philippines.
