The history of the City of Makati is rich and varied. The city takes its name from the ancient meaning of the Tagalog word “kati”, which means “to ebb”, referring to how the lands that the Makati of today stands on would be revealed by the ebbing tide of the Pasig River. But the commercial hub that we know of today would never have existed without the arrival of Don Bonifacio Roxas in 1851. A Spanish national, Don Bonifacio would go on to buy a plot of land called Hacienda San Pedro de Macati from the Jesuits who owned it. He and his heirs, the Zobel de Ayalas, would be vital to the development of the hacienda that would eventually turn into the city of today, one that is synonymous with growth and progress. The thoroughfare that bears the Ayala name is the heart of the portion of Makati known as the Central Business District (CBD). Here, many of the country’s biggest corporations, both local and multinational, are headquartered. Surrounding the CBD are some of the finest retail and shopping establishments found anywhere in Asia, to service the needs of the people who work in the CBD, along with the many tourists and visitors who come to Makati for vacation or business.
