Picture a space where art and nature come together, offering a quiet escape from the city. It’s a place for families to gather, friendships to grow, and stories of culture and history to be shared. Here, the urban landscape evolves, creating connections and inspiring creativity.

Located in Quezon City, Cloverleaf is innovating urban living with a thoughtful blend of art, nature, and community. This transformation comes to life with the unveiling of its Linear Park and the “Threads of Time” public art program—a celebration of Cloverleaf’s rich past, dynamic present, and sustainable future.

The Linear Park stretches like a green sanctuary amid the city’s energetic pulse, connecting Ayala Malls' Cloverleaf, Avida, and Alveo neighborhoods. Designed to bring people closer to nature, it offers a serene escape for residents and visitors alike. Strolling through its paths, one is greeted by native trees like Kaningag, Malak-malak, Palo Maria, and Malabulak—symbols of resilience and the beauty of local flora. More than a peaceful retreat, the park invites families and friends to gather, fostering connections in a shared outdoor haven.

Rooted in art
At its core, Cloverleaf's public art program transforms the Linear Park into a vibrant gallery under the open sky. Each piece tells a story, drawing inspiration from Balintawak’s heritage as a textile industry hub while envisioning a future of innovation and creativity. Local artists breathe life into these tales through dynamic sculptures and murals that speak of community, artistry, and culture.
