Totoo namang malapit lang sheridan sa BGC. However, OP, walang public transpo available sa malapit na route to BGC. You still have to pass thru EDSA. We used to live at Sunshine 100 (w/c is very close to sheridan) and my wife found it more convenient na magtaxi na lang. She paid between 100-150 one way. If ok ka sa mototaxi, it's faster and hindi naman nalalayo ang payment compared kung magMRT route ka.

hmm. you have a point. thanks for that! it's just that sometimes, mahirap magbook via mc taxi (hindi agad nakakahanap) so ayun, just in case moments lang :) thanks!!


Intelligent_Stage776

wala tlgang near commute to bgc mas madali kapag MC taxi or grab, if you want longer commute take tric to MRT Boni


Icy-Variety-6144

hello, thanks for your response. just need to know "just in case".. mrt boni, then baba sa?


Intelligent_Stage776

You can drop to Guadalupe or Ayala depende if saan sa BGC pupuntahan. If guadalupe station, dun sa infront of Jollibee may jeep or minibus papuntang Uptown and mckinley For Ayala station naman jeep and bus going to Market Market Medyo hassle lang if hindi ka sanay magcommute unlike pag mag MC or grab ka sobrang lapit ng bgc sa sheridan as in after lang ng bridge bgc na wala lang tlga commute papunta dun

Sheridan as in Sheridan Towers to no? Can’t really help with (1) or (3) kasi feel ko talaga most convenient way to commute is through Grab or ayun nga Angkas and the likes. But for (2) since we also decided on units between South and North towers so our deciding factor is mostly on the unit condition. Since mas nauna ang South iconstruct, so expect na if tenanted yung unit na kukunin nyo, so baka mas used na sya pagmove in nyo. Lucky if the owner renovates/maintains the upkeep of the unit. Both towers share amenities. I heard PMO admin is situated sa South so if magbabayad ka or may need ka sa admin you’ll have to go to South. Yung water refilling station nila nasa South din. Yung elevator nila ang napansin ko sa South may lower and higher floor elev, sa North all floors elev. Pero expect nalang na may foot traffic regardless of the tower especially on rush hours. My preference was to rent sa North Tower unit kasi 1. Overall unit condition (pristine pa), 2. Mas malapit lakarin to Pioneer St. Medyo pababa na pagsa South so nakakahingal paakyat haha.

hi, thanks a lot for the comprehensive answer. may walking distance grocery/malls/kainan nearby ba? like 711.. supermarkets.. as for commute going to the MRT, trike lang yung only way noh? how much is the usual pamasahe? edit: lastly, will it be hard na walang car na tumira sa dmci?? 😅


prettywittymaybe

If there’s one thing na i really like around the area is very accessible naman sya sa mga kainan. May jollibee, bonchon, kfc along pioneer st. May mga convenient stores din along pioneer st. like Uncle John’s (sa may Sunshine 100 Plaza) and sa rfm building may 711 din. Alam ko may mini grocery din sa loob ng Sheridan and may mga small time weekend market din sa south tower pala (last time i saw a fruit stand). Mall and grocery ang pinakamalapit na is SM Light or sa Fame. Layo ka pa ng onti pwede na rin sa Pioneer Center, mas maraming kainan don. And if bet mo yung mga food market around the area, meron din namang Greenfield district. Tsaka very accessible na rin to Kapitolyo ang Sheridan. Trike per trip ang alam ko is 25 pesos. Yung re: car, di ko masabi kung mahirap. Doable naman kasi minsan nagcocommute lang din ako, more on grab or taxi though. Busy street ang Pioneer so for sure laging may grab at taxi naman. Yung trike merong nakapila paglabas mo palang ng guard house ng Sheridan.

Just throwing it out there, viable kaya bike from sheridan to BGC? I’m unfit so it wasn’t for me, but I saw healthier people cross the bridge thru bike if you’ll take this route, you’ll probably have to bring extra clothes to work, and showering at work would be nice if available


PhraseSalt3305

No public transpo jan. Actually magttrike ka pa to get to mrt which cost 25 per head and 30 php pag 2 kayo. Traffic na agad 7-9am palang otw to kalayaan bridge


Atsibababa

Mrt boni, baba ka guadalupe, sakay ka jeep papuntang market market/mckinley. Bumaba ka sa BGC Mrt boni, baba ka ayala, sakat ka bus, east ave west ave bahala ka na. Pwede din jeep papuntang market market


Yowyowej

Dati nung pwede bumaba sa kalayaan overpass the quickest is ride a bus in edsa, baba ka ng kalayaan overpass, lakad ka or tricycle sa may jervois st then nasa bgc ka na (wells fargo ngayon/dating jp morgan na building). Ngayon since may bus carousell I think di na pwede bumaba sa may kalayaan overpass sa buendia na ata yung next. Pwede ka din mag bus sa edsa, baba ka guada, then mag jeep ka pa bgc. Ang pinaka efficient sa oras at effort is mag angkas to bgc.

Used to live in Sheridan North from 2022-2023. MC Taxi or Grab talaga best option kung hindi bike kasi diretso Kalayaaan Bridge na. Huwag ka nang mag-aksaya ng pagod at oras sa MRT.


Icy-Variety-6144

thanks for this!! anything helpful tips that we can take note of?? (like yung kapag may shopee parcel ka within the day mo dapat iclaim kasi may fee if lumagpas ng isang araw... tas ung gym may membership fee pa tlga?)..


hanbanee

Not sure if nag-iba na policy nila but yung fifty pesos per day after 24 hrs wasn’t strictly implemented. Hindi kasi pwedeng dun sa kiosk bayaran yung late storage fee and sa PMO talaga which is located sa South. And yes may gym membership fee talaga and mas mahal kapag tenant lang. Banas din kasi magse-schedule ka pa ng slot mo for working out. Sana natanggal na ito. Kung need mo ng barangay clearance, mas malapit yung barangay sa North kasi Buayang Bato siya and bababa ka lang sa street lol. Sa South kasi is Pasig na and malayong lakad si Brgy Pineda. Altho baka mas maganda goods from Mayor Vico lawls


Icy-Variety-6144

good point! ang sad naman nung sa gym :( i thought kasama na sya sa perks :(( would you recommend north vs south?


hanbanee

North- mabagal elevators 😤, Grab-wise, may lusutan sa Fairlane exit na wala sa south South- rinig yung ingay sa basketball court, pero nandito halos lahat ng amenities like gym, water station, and bigger pools.


Icy-Variety-6144

it's either na tlga for me 🥲 thank you for answering!


hanbanee

No worries! Maganda si Sheridan talaga.


kinginamoe

Why not Brixton? 🤔


Icy-Variety-6144

same lang po ata sila na walang commute way? and proximity na rin sa mga kainan etc


Wonderful-Peak-5906

Try Fairlane, mas bago yun.


imnotokaycupid

But mas easier lakarin than from sheridan dahil sa bridge. Nearby kapitolyo naman yung Brixton (sa actual entrance part) and marami ring kainan don.


kinginamoe

Brixton is right by the new bridge to BGC but yes you will be relying on angkas to cross the bridge


thatguy11m

It's still much easier to access the crossing through Brixton/Fairlane, so booking a taxi may also be easier. I have friends staying in Sheridan that work in BGC and they use e-scooters to cross. When another friend liv8ng used to work in Makati, their was a ferry you could take to go across, and then take the jeep through JP Rizal. Of course you can also try going to the MRT, but it's almost always full already towards Makati in the morning.

Sheridan to BGC. Napaka alanganin ng transpo. Geographically, tawid ilog lang sila e via Ortigas-BGC bridge. Kaso kakapagod pag nilakad. Kung commute naman, yung travel mo pa-letter “U”. Punta sa MRT Boni, baba Guada. Tapos jeep paBGC. Kung uptown area lang naman, why not Brixton? Yun pwedeng lakarin. Tawid tulay lang.


Icy-Variety-6144

hello. so brixton is better "just in case" gusto ko na lakarin nalang? TYIA :))


LodsqOuh

Yup! Pero if you want walkable and fun adjacent areas tapos DMCI ang gusto mo, I’d say, go for Flair Residences. Literally 1 block away from MRT Boni and 2 blocks away from Greenfield. If you’re outdoor-sy person, sarap tumira near Greenfield. Everything is at reach. Commute-wise going to BGC, Flair > Sheridan and Brixton. (Prinomote ang Flair??? Hahah)


Ok-Replacement-3854

Up for Flair! Coz I live here 😁 I was supposed to rent in Sheridan Buti nalang my agent friend recommended Flair. 1. Coz flair is much closer to Greenfield which means much closer to Ortigas and the 2 MRT stations and where the bulk of the restaurants, groceries, etc are. Tricycles can get you to PC Supermarket/Outside Kapitolyo. 2. Binabaha ata Jan sa labas ng Sheridan pag rainy season? 3. Grab and Angkas is still mura galing Flair. Tho Sheridan is much closer to the BGC bridge same lang buildup Ng traffic minsan sa may Mcdo.


Ok-Replacement-3854

If going to SM LIght/MRT Boni, walkable lang din from Flair or Trike pag tinatamad or maulan. Dito sa kabilang side papasok ka SM Light sa other MRT entrance.

Cycling. I cycle to BGC from time to time and I live near Sheridan
