It was formerly part of Food Terminal Inc. before being sold to Ayala Land.

History

With the decline of FTI, there have been several attempts over multiple Philippines presidential administrations to sell off part of the property, including a public auction in 2009, but they all failed.[1]

In November 2012, the Philippine government announced the sale of the 74 hectares of the 120-hectare property to Ayala Land, Inc. for 24.3 billion Philippine pesos.[2][1] Ayala plans to turn the property into a mixed-use development.[2] Proceeds from the sale are pledged to the programs of the Department of Agriculture and the Department of Agrarian Reform. The remaining 46 hectares remains in FTI.[2]

In 2013, Ayala Land renamed their property into Arca South.[3]

gollark: Anyway, if you could make it past that to one of the content pages, they would each have their own loading screens, probably prompt you for the newsletter again, have more irrelevant shiny images, and have excessively large text and a UI designed for 3.5" mobile phone screens.
gollark: They would have close buttons but they would only work 50% of the time.
gollark: Oh, and ones asking for cookie consent and newsletter signup.
gollark: But there would also be a popup asking you to download the app, which would not actually work because I'm not making an app, as well as one asking you to add it to your home screen as a PWA.
gollark: Then it would load into a page containing a bunch of links to all the actual *content*, but each would have a vaguely nice-looking but irrelevant image to occupy half the page and also your internet connection.
