2. Mr. Henry Sy, Sr. - VISIONARY
“While I was on my shopping trips abroad during the 1950s and
1960s, I saw the shopping center development in the US from the
East to the West Coast. I knew that this would happen in the
Philippines.” – Henry Sy, Sr.
THE MALL THAT STARTED IT ALL
• It all began here. SM City North EDSA innovated and
institutionalized the "one-stop shopping complex" and was the
first mall in the Philippines to introduce "malling" as a pastime.
Besides being a haven for shoppers, the architecture of the mall
blends both old and new, creating calming and colorful scenes.
• With world-class cinemas, a helpful and convenient transport
depot for easy commuting, outdoor parking, and attractive
structures, SM City North EDSA aims to be an architectural
landmark of Metro Manila’s progress, as well as one of the most
beautiful structures in the Philippines.
3. Mr. Henry Sy, Sr. - VISIONARY
The Times:
“In 1983, we were building SM City North-EDSA, our first shopping mall. Many people at that time said I
was crazy. There was a political crisis; interest rates were as high as 45%, and the location of the mall
was in the middle of nowhere. They said that SM City would not succeed, but the mall was an instant
success.”
AND THE REST, AS THEY SAY, IS HISTORY…
