Bacolod’s next phase of residential growth is no longer just being imagined. It is being built.
Parkville by SM Development Corporation (SMDC) is entering a new chapter marked by a tangible milestone: the recent groundbreaking of its entrance bridge. More than an infrastructure addition, the bridge signals the steady realization of a master plan designed to support long-term living, movement, and community life in Sta. Fe, Bacolod.
“The bridge represents how Parkville was always meant to grow—deliberately,” said Jessica Bianca Sy, Vice President and Head of Design, Innovation and Strategy at SMDC. “Making sure that access, circulation, and daily experience are carefully thought through as the community evolves.”
Spanning over 52 hectares, Parkville was introduced as a rare, lots-only development shaped by open space, heritage, and a distinctly Bacolodnon rhythm of life. Today, that vision is taking physical form, moving from concept to connectivity.
Designed as a key internal link within the estate, the bridge will improve traffic flow, enhance accessibility across neighborhoods, and support the development of future residential and lifestyle zones. It reinforces Parkville’s intent to function as a cohesive, well-connected community rather than a collection of isolated enclaves.
This measured approach reflects a broader shift in how growth is unfolding in cities like Bacolod. As development moves beyond dense urban centers, homeowners are placing greater value on space, mobility, and environments that allow families to settle in for the long term. Parkville responds to this shift by prioritizing infrastructure early—ensuring that the foundations of the community are as thoughtfully planned as its green spaces.
Set within one of Bacolod’s emerging residential districts and located just minutes from the Bacolod–Negros Occidental Economic Highway, Parkville offers convenient access to schools, hospitals, the airport, and key commercial areas—while remaining grounded in a quieter, more expansive setting.
At its core, Parkville remains a community shaped by nature, with parks, open landscapes, and preserved elements of the former Sta. Fe Resort woven into its masterplan. But as construction milestones like the bridge take shape, the development is clearly moving into its next phase: one defined by execution, permanence, and everyday livability.
In Bacolod, where growth is increasingly about balance rather than speed, Parkville is setting a clear direction—building not just homes, but the infrastructure that allows communities to thrive over time.
