Notice the names of the streets in Avida Settings Nuvali, patterned after US sites and cities– Bridgeport, Fremont Peak, Blueridge, Mt. Rushmore.
Personally I would\’ve preferred a more Pinoy context…
– Where do you live?
– Pechay St.
Haha
But seriously, what other names would\’ve worked?
Pinoy veggies or herbs: Welcome to Malunggay Ave., Turn left on Pandan St.
Pinoy nature terms: Ilog St., Batis Ave., Dagat St., Araw St. <— pwede!
Pinoy animals: Oso St., Kalapati St., Lawin St., Paru-paro St.
Pinoy trees would\’ve been nice too (although I know a village in Pasig that already uses them): Narra St., Mahogany, Tindalo, Ipil
On the upside, Avida\’s current street names do lend a breezy feel to the place–snow references maybe? At least we can imagine snowy peaks and stay cool when we start feeling the heat of summer again.
Agree. I would have hoped for more Pinoy street names…
