Image: The tower has been designed by Broadway Malyan Ground has been broken in the construction of the new 250m (820ft) Trump Tower Manila skyscraper, which will become one of the tallest buildings in the Philippines when complete.
Broadway Malyan have designed the US$150m (EUR122m, £96m) tower - the centrepiece of Century Properties' 4-hectare (9.9-acre) mixed-use scheme at Century City, Makati.
Due for completion in 2016, the iconic 58-storey skyscraper will house 220 residential units and uses the Trump name under a licensing agreement with Trump Marks Philippines.
An "intermediary skygarden" on the 30th floor will feature a spa containing treatment rooms, a spa lounge, sauna and steamrooms and a whirlpool, as well as an infinity lap pool.
Other lifestyle facilities at Trump Tower Manila will include a gym, a juice bar and a beauty salon, while the ground floor will host a fine dining restaurant.
The design of the building features an environmentally-responsive skin with light shelves and shading systems reacting to its orientation in relation to the sun's path across the sky.
Broadway Malyan's Ian Simpson said: "Ground breaking is a major milestone in the delivery of this landmark project, which has drawn on the skills, expertise and experience of our world-class design team working in partnership with the client."
