Picture of progress at Sumulong Highway

Wheels of Happiness

Rizal, Philipppines   | May 2, 2014

I am really amazed at the quantity and quality of progress visible along Sumulong highway.  In the l970s, I had a summer job at DE office in Capitolyo, Pasig City and did blue printing of the Sumulong highway.  They were just plans then.  Sumulong highway connected Antipolo City (not a city then) and Marikina city.  And certainly they were just mountainous areas.

Now just look at them, they are very much part of the urban scenery.

                                   Subdivision near Assumption Antipolo

                                  A manufacturing complex

                                    Entrance to a chic housing project

                                  Where angels rest and gateway to great beyond

                                      A people center near Good Shepherd

                                  Building at Good Shepherd

                                  Blue sky (when there is not much smog)

                                   Grafitti (wall art?) near the Lopez Ctr, Padis point

                                   Mcdo near Blue Mountain

                                Commercial complex building

                                        DLSU St Benilde near Holy Gardens Antipolo

                                    Sumulong highway has been effectively widened to 6 lanes

                        Holy Gardens Antipolo (was involved in planning and building this!)

                                    SM Masinag

                                   Cornel Hospital

                                      SM is all over the place
