DMCI Holdings Chairman Isidro A. Consunji on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, led the symbolic topping-off of Fortis Residences, an upscale condominium development rising along Chino Roces Avenue in Makati City. 

 

Developed by the DMCI Group’s property arm DMCI Homes, Fortis Residences stands as a testament to the company’s enduring pursuit of engineering excellence and design innovation. 

 

This marks the second development under DMCI Homes Exclusive, the company’s premium brand tailored for the upscale segment. 

 

The occasion celebrating the completion of structural works marked both a proud moment and a continuation of DMCI’s legacy for Chairman Consunji as he witnessed the 37-storey building rise in the same city where the company first established its reputation for engineering excellence. 

 

DMCI’s history in Makati dates back to the late 1950s, when Chairman Consunji's late father, Engr. David M. Consunji, led the construction of the first four buildings in the Makati Business District. 

 

Joining Chairman Consunji at the ceremony were DMCI Homes SVP for Design, Engineering and Construction Adrian Calimbas, VP for Project Development Dennis Yap, Chief Finance Officer Evangeline Hernandez-Atchioco, AVP for Property Advisors Unit and International Sales Bernard Umali, and Sales Division Heads Leigh Guenez-Ignacio and Oscar Ofiana, Jr.  

Fortis Residences’ location provides residents with easy access to EDSA, SLEX, Skyway, NAIA, and major business hubs like BGC, Ayala Center, and Aseana City.

With Fortis Residences reaching its full height, DMCI Homes President Alfredo Austria said construction work will now shift to masonry and finishing in preparation for the scheduled start of unit turnover in December 2027. 

 

“We are proud to see another DMCI Homes development taking shape in the Makati skyline. Fortis Residences reflects DMCI Homes’ consistent approach to quality—rooted in DMCI’s renowned engineering excellence,” Austria said. 

 

Envisioned as a modern landmark of sophistication and success, Fortis Residences is the second development under the DMCI Homes Exclusive after Oak Harbor Residences in Jackson Ave, Asiaworld City, Parañaque. 

 

Set along Chino Roces Avenue, Fortis Residences stands at the forefront of progress. From global corporate headquarters to premier institutions and embassies, its location is as prestigious as it is strategic. With easy access to EDSA, SLEX, Skyway, NAIA, and major business hubs like BGC, Ayala Center, and Aseana City, it empowers today’s leaders to move seamlessly between aspirations and achievements.   

 

Even more, Fortis Residences rises within the Makati Southwest Gateway, a globally envisioned urban district that prioritizes walkability, connectivity, and lifestyle elevation. Integrated into a transit-oriented development and complemented by an office building, One Fortis Plaza, this upscale residence provides an unmatched level of ease and access. Whether for work, wellness, or leisure, everything you need is just a few steps away.   

The roof deck not only offers majestic views of the Makati skyline on one end and of the Manila Bay on the other, but it also Features an enclosed Sky Lounge and Sky Deck Pool.

Inside, refined living takes center stage.  Each unit—whether a well-planned one-bedroom, a two-bedroom unit with balcony or an expansive three-bedroom suite, is designed with intention. Optimized layouts, premium finishes, branded fixtures, and thoughtful details such as air-conditioning in all units, water heaters, digital locksets, and smart building systems redefine what it means to live in comfort and style.  

 

As with all DMCI Homes developments, resort-inspired amenities anchor the lifestyle experience. A generous 3,000 square meters of ground-level open space hosts a leisure pool, lounge areas, and a children’s play area.     

 

Amenities on the roof deck offer more ways to stay active or unwind such as a basketball court, fitness gym, Sky Promenade, and enclosed Sky Lounge. 

 

Crowning it all is the Sky Deck Pool—an elevated retreat with stunning views of the Makati skyline and Manila Bay.   

 

Fortis Residences further underscores DMCI Homes’ commitment to modern, sustainable development through energy-efficient lighting, EV charging stations, and water recycling systems. The property also features professional property management, concierge services, Community Internet, and a user-friendly mobile app to support residents’ daily needs.
