Pasig City will build a new city hall "campus" to replace the old municipal buildings that are now structurally inadequate, Mayor Vico Sotto said Sunday.
"Maaaring ito po ang magiging pinakamalaking proyekto sa kasaysayan ng lungsod ng Pasig," Mayor Vico Sotto said, before showing a video of the planned Pasig City Hall campus.
During the "Gabi ng Pasasalamat" event celebrating the city's 450th founding anniversary, Sotto said that the current city hall had started as a smaller municipal building in 1963. Over the decades, several additions were made to it and three other buildings were built very close to it to make up the current City Hall compound.
"Basta ang conclusion [ng report], ang City Hall natin, ang apat na building na bumubuo ng City Hall, ay structurally unsound," Sotto said. "Kailangang umaksyon tayo." The result is a vision for a Pasig City Hall "campus" that will require a ten-year masterplan, Sotto said. The first to be built will be the new City Hall itself, which will take two years to construct.
