SERVICED APARTMENT BUILDING WITH TWO LEVEL PARKING
SUBMITTED BY: CHRISTIAN JUNIX D. TABANAS – GROUP 11 R8
SUBMITTED TO: AR. REGGIE MONTE DE RAMOS PROJECT PROPOSAL: PROPOSED MID-RISE SERVICED APARTMENT BUILDING WITH TWO LEVEL PARKING
SECTION I. WHAT IS SERVICED APARTMENT?
In brief, a serviced apartment is a completely furnished apartment designed for both short-term and long-term occupancy. It comes with everyday amenities, housekeeping, and various services, all encompassed in the rental fee. You might be tempted to draw a parallel with a hotel, but they are distinct in several ways.
In summary, the benefits of opting for a serviced apartment over
conventional hotels can be distilled as follows: 1. A serviced apartment provides a more home-like atmosphere, equipped with amenities that offer greater freedom and comfort. 2. Typically, serviced apartments offer more square footage than standard hotel rooms, providing ample space for your sports equipment or other belongings. 3. When staying for an extended period, a serviced apartment is notably more cost-effective than a hotel room. This is due to the lower actual apartment cost and the option to prepare your own meals, reducing the need to dine out for every meal. 4. Serviced apartments reflect the local culture of the area, offering a genuine glimpse into what a local residence looks like. This immersive experience provides a deeper understanding of the local culture and values, which is often lacking in the uniformity of hotel rooms. The best example for serviced apartment in cebu is citadines. It has a lot of amenities such as fitness centre, function & meeting rooms, swimming pool, launderette, business centre services, daily housekeeping services, 24 hour reception, and free wifi.

Figure VII. PROJECT LOT
The maximum R-3 housing will be having
70% of maximum allowable pso for the total lot area, 20% maximum allowable impervious surface area, and 10% minimum unpaved surface area. A TOTAL OPEN SPACE WITHIN THE LOT WILL BE HAVING 30% OF THE LOT AREA. TLA = 3,366.68 M2 UPDATED DATA:
GREEN – USA ( 336.80 M2 )
PSO = 3,366.68 x 0.70 YELLOW – ISA ( 847.97 M2 ) = 2,356.676 M2 RED – PSO ( 2181.91 M2 )
ISA = 3,366.68 x 0.20
= 673.336 M2 USA = 3,366.68 x 0.10 = 336.668 M2 TOSL = ISA + USA = 1,010.004 M2

SECTION III. SITE HISTORY
Dionisio, born on May 8, 1878, was the son of Alfonso Jakosalem and Apolonia Abella, hailing from Dumanjug, Cebu. He received his education at the Colegio de San Carlos and the University of Santo Tomas, eventually becoming a lawyer on March 27, 1907. His public service journey began at a young age when he took office as Municipal Secretary of Dumanjug in 1900, and in 1903, he was appointed as Justice of the Peace of Cebu.
In 1906, he assumed the role of Cebu Governor, succeeding Don Sergio
Osmeña, who resigned to pursue a seat in the National Assembly. A year later, Dionisio was elected as the Governor of Cebu. His historical importance lies in being the first Filipino appointed to a Cabinet position, following a decree issued by the American Governor General, Francis Burton Harrison, on January 11, 1917. Dionisio assumed the position on January 18, 1917, serving as the Secretary of Commerce and Communication until October 3, 1922. After concluding his term as Governor of Cebu in October 1912, he took on the role of Provincial Fiscal of Cebu on February 1, 1913."
This road functions as a major thoroughfare in Cebu City, starting at M.C.
Briones Street, where it intersects with various other streets like Magallanes, Osmena Boulevard, Legaspi, Manalili, Colon, Sanciangko, P. del Rosario, Gen. Maxilom, and ultimately ends at Gorordo Avenue. Historically, during the American occupation, it was known as "Calle Norte America," but in the Spanish colonial era, it was called "Calle Alfonso Trece" in honor of the Spanish King.
