On April 27, 2026, Balai Cordova celebrated a major construction milestone with the topping-off of its first tower, Coral. This event not only marked the completion of its structural framework but also symbolized a new chapter for the condominium development.
Standing at 12 stories, Coral signifies a transition point for Balai Cordova, moving beyond mere construction into a phase of realization and meaning.
The topping-off ceremony was attended by local dignitaries, including Cordova Mayor Hon. Cesar Suan, project teams, and partners, all acknowledging the collaborative effort that brought the project to this stage.
A Ceremony of Unity and Achievement
Father Dan led a blessing ceremony that set a tone of gratitude for the successful completion of the tower's framework. The gathering celebrated not just the physical structure but the teamwork and discipline that made it possible.
This project reflects a commitment to building with intention, where every phase contributes to long-term continuity.

Berben Logistics, Inc. was recognized for their pivotal role in ensuring the tower's structural completion. Their leadership showcased the importance of consistent execution in construction projects.
A unique part of the ceremony involved a symbolic sand mixing activity, emphasizing the collective effort that goes into every construction project.
The highlight was the lifting of the final I-beam, a moment that underscored the completion of Coral's vertical framework.
Looking Forward to Future Growth
The event culminated with a ceremonial tarp roll-down, unveiling Coral in its entirety, allowing attendees to appreciate its full form for the first time.
After the formal proceedings, guests participated in a traditional kakanin-sharing, reinforcing community connections that will characterize the future of Balai Cordova.
The project's design emphasizes not just individual living spaces but a harmonious blend of diverse lives and paths, symbolized by the Pinwheel at the entry point.
