Double Dragon Properties Corp. teamed up with Ascott Limited of Singapore to build a five-star serviced apartment in the former’s 4.8-hectare property in Pasay City.

DoubleDragon said in a disclosure to the stock exchange its unit signed an agreement with Ascott to develop a 300-room luxury apartment called Ascott-DD Meridian Park Manila at Bay Area on the corner of Macapagal Ave. and Edsa Extension.

Ascott-DD Meridian Park Manila is set to break ground within the year and is slated for completion by 2020.

DoubleDragon said the location is very ideal given its close proximity to the Manila domestic and international airport, the Department of Foreign Affairs, Mall of Asia and Entertainment City.

“The development of Ascott-DD Meridian Park Manila is the third phase of the complex and is expected to further enhance the profile of the entire development and meaningfully contribute to the recurring revenues of DoubleDragon,” the company said.
