Cited as one of the most visited cities in the United States, New Orleans is famed for its buzzing nightlife. Spread within its languid landscapes trimmed by the undulating Mississippi River are clubs offering the best jazz music and celebrating Mardi Gras. Equally spirited festivals set against Creole cooking abound, and colonial architecture is unlike anywhere in the world.
Called the Big Easy, the pulsating energy of the city belies its locals’ generosity and easygoing way of life. This combination of spirited camaraderie with nonchalant tranquility is the reason Vista Land is building a microcity in equally captivating
Santa Maria, Bulacan, surrounded by the gentle swell of The Ol’ Man River.
Santa Maria, Bulacan: A perfect blend of yesterday and today
Bulacan, sitting north of Metro Manila, boasts a strong historical heritage. Dubbed the Northern Gateway from Manila, Bulacan is one of the country’s more progressive provinces and a top tourist destination with a variety of resorts, hotels, and gastronomic options. Bulacan offers a host of historical landmarks, ancient homes, and magnificent churches. It is also famous for its festivals and an unmatched artistry seen in native crafts and irresistible delicacies.
Santa Maria, the fifth most populous municipality in the Philippines, has grown into one of the busiest commercial hubs and major financial centers in the province. The town’s charming blend of historic and progressive, as well as a mélange of quiet and bustle, makes it an ideal place to raise a family and realize a thriving future.
In what is nearly the beating heart of Bulacan, Vista Land, through Vista Estates, is replicating the history, art, and magic of that otherworldly Louisiana metropolis—
New Orleans.
The gentility of The Big Easy will rise in Bulacan
The American Deep South, which Louisiana is a part of, is remarked for its Southern hospitality—a welcoming warmth exuded by its locals that makes visitors feel at home. In The Crescent, the congeniality of the Bayou State will live and breathe within its boundaries, as the people of Santa Maria, Bulacan, are also known for their kindness, good humor, and amiability.
Vista Land is carving a 38-hectare New Orleans-in-miniature, inspired by the graceful shape of the Mississippi River skirting the Louisiana border. For those who dream of nights filled with jazzy tunes, alleys brimming with bars and bistros, flamboyant festivals, Creole flavors, and exquisite homes of a distant age brought to modern-day life, The Crescent will be the answer to every aspiration.
The Crescent will be built according to the same structured street pattern and architectural enchantment as the French Quarter along Bourbon Street in New Orleans, beloved for its spirited nightlife and culinary wonders. While alluding to the Francophone settlements in its early days, the locale is a composite of French Creole and Spanish art, architecture, food, and language—with many other cultures pitching in. Filipinos were also believed to have settled in New Orleans as early as the 18th century.
The Big Easy brings pizzazz to Bulacan with The Crescent by Vista Land
The Crescent is putting a modern-day spin on Creole design. Greek Revival, American colonial, and Italianate tastes will adorn structures and commercial hubs but will make room for the homey Creole style in Vermilion Residences, named after the Vermilion River in southern Louisiana. Corporate spaces clad in brick and glass will provide a striking juxtaposition. Blooms of varying hues will drape elegant balconies and add color to parks, pathways, and public areas. Meant to be a walking city, every space will feature gardens, water installations, art pieces, kiosks peddling cuisine, and nearly everything and anything.
The Crescent is master planned into two zones, with the residences conveniently placed in between. Located east is The Quarters, boasting a Vista Mall, while Zone Two, situated to the west, caters to the residents’ lifestyle requirements with a commercial center. The Zones are mixed-use hubs rife with corporate spaces, restaurants, open parks, and condominiums for those who prefer the cosmopolitan way of life. Taking the magic of one of the world’s fascinating cities and blending it with dynamism and smart technology, life in The Crescent will also be an irresistible mix of serene sanctuary and exhilarating adventure.
