Rizal Theater in Makati.

It was one of the classier cinemas in the late 60s, 70s and 80s. It later closed down in the late 80s due to fierce competition. People started going to malls to see a movie instead. In the late 90s it was torn down. The site where Rizal Theater used to be is now 6750 Ayala.

Vividly illustrating the condition of burned-out, battle-scarred Manila, as U.S. engineers and thousands of Filipinos begin the huge task of reconstruction, is this aerial view looking southwest across the Pasig River toward hulks of sunken ships in the harbor. Tall building, left foreground, is gutted, Eastern Hotel, center, across river, is burned out, general post office, extreme left, across river is Metropolitan Opera House in ruins. Battered wall of Intramuros, Walled City, and destroyed buildings inside, occupies rectangular area beyond post office. Left is demolished Santa Cross Bridge, repaired by Army engineers. The streets have already been cleared of rubble.

AFTER THE BATTLE OF MOUNT DAJO (March 9, 1906).
From a negative made on the spot the day of the "brave feat of arms," when a great body of Moros, men, women and children, were killed by the army under Gen. Wood; "a logical incident in the sequence of events which will include the whole history of the Philippine posessions."

More photos of Old Manila... along the banks of Pasig River...

By the way, "Tagalog" is derived from the words "taga ilog" or inhabitants by the river. The river referred to is the Pasig River

This is in Makati, That's the old IBM building and beside it was the old RCPI bldg. This picture was taken in the area where Manila Penn now stands. I'm sure, my dad use to work for IBM.)

By RMN: The lovely building on the far right is the Dona Narcisa de Leon (yes, Dona Sisang of LVN) Building designed by Gabriel Formoso that has long since been torn-down in favor of the Equitable-PCI Bank Tower.

Power-Mad: That would be from left, IBM ; RCPI and the Dona Narcisa de Leon Building. Doinks didn't specify if IBM and RCPI were just tenants and if these are the actual names of the buildings themselves.

I really wish I could go back in time and see these places again... if only we could get it back to how beautiful it was back then. sigh!

This also reminds me of a baby photography thesis i was supposed to do, "The Lost City of Manila".  Concept was that I would find hidden architectural gems that still stand today and place it side by side with the really older pictures.

Nice thread.  Keep it comin'!

90s nalagay underpass sa makati. Wala pang traffic nun kaya kahit saan pwedeng tumawid.

kulang kasi sa budget pero gusto ng may ari na magmukang ka-level ng mga existing bldgs kaya pinagawan nya ng facade na ganyan pero ang totoo pagpasok mo dyan eh isang palapag lang yan at 15 feet lang ang taas ng kisame.

in short, malay ko dyan! kakulay kasi ng sky yung pader eh
