Chino Roces Avenue, formerly known as (and still commonly referred to as) Pasong Tamo, is a prominent north–south road in the cities of Makati and Taguig, Metro Manila, Philippines It runs for 5.80 kilometers (3.60 miles) from Olympia and Tejeros to Fort Bonifacio. The avenue is named after Joaquin "Chino" Roces, journalist, founder of The Manila Times and Associated Broadcasting Company (now TV5), and an opposition figure during the Marcos administration. The fact that the avenue is the location of various media establishments influenced the renaming. The northern end of Chino Roces Avenue is at the intersection with J.P. Rizal Avenue. It heads southwesterly across the residential and commercial barangays of Olympia, Tejeros, Santa Cruz, and La Paz. After the intersection with Bagtikan Street in San Antonio, Chino Roces bends to the south, becoming more commercial as it approaches Gil Puyat Avenue. The road continues southwards through the western limits of the Makati Central Business District, bending slightly southwesterly between Rufino and Don Bosco Streets. The avenue then becomes mixed commercial and industrial as it continues on a straight route to EDSA. South of EDSA via a narrow channel under the Magallanes Interchange, Chino Roces, as its extension, serves as a frontage road to South Luzon Expressway. It is lined with light industries and car dealerships on both sides, as well as a few factory outlets, in an area also known as Kayamanan or Kayamanan-C. The road ends at Lawton Avenue within Fort Bonifacio in Taguig, near Gate 3 Plaza. Chino Roces has a short extension north of J.P. Rizal Avenue into Barangay Carmona as A.P. Reyes Avenue. The part of Chino Roces from Rufino Street to Arnaiz Avenue is home to several Japanese restaurants and shops, earning it the nickname "Little Tokyo". The avenue originated as a short street in what was historically known as Malolos Subdivision, a residential subdivision in Tejeros and Olympia. As suggested by surrounding streets in such area named similar to places that played significant roles during the Philippine Revolution (e.g. Malolos, Barasoain, Novaliches, Binakod, Zapote), Pasong Tamo may be named after a barrio in Caloocan (now a barangay in the present-day Quezon City) where the Battle of Pasong Tamo occurred. Its name also comes from an indigenous plant called tamo that once grew there abundantly. It was then extended towards Vito Cruz Street in the 1940s and later towards southern Makati circa 1950s, making it a major road. (en) |
