View of Rockwell Center from the Pasig River at day
Rockwell Center sits on a 15.5-hectare (38-acre) lot in Poblacion, Makati previously occupied by a thermal power plant, which was operated by then Lopez-owned Manila Electric Railroad and Light Company until its closure in 1994. The lot is bounded by J.P. Rizal Avenue to the north, where it faces the Pasig River; Estrella Street to the east; Rockwell Drive and Amapola Street to the south; and R. Palma Street to the west.
Marking the expansion of Rockwell Center is The Proscenium at Rockwell, a 3.6 hectares (8.9 acres) mixed-used luxury development standing in the property formerly occupied by the Colgate-Palmolive (Philippines) headquarters across Estrella Street in Guadalupe Viejo, Makati. The complex is designed by world-renowned architect Carlos Ott.[4] The development consists of five residential towers, luxurious retail spaces, an office tower, and a performing arts theater called The Proscenium Theater,[5][6] featuring limited and spacious units for each floor of the towers. The five residential towers are named the Kirov, Sakura, Lincoln,[7] Lorraine, and the Proscenium Residences.
The development's office tower component, the 1 Proscenium, was opened in 2021.[8] The Proscenium Theater was completed and opened in September 2025.[9][10]
