Rufino Pacific Tower, Steel-framed office skyscraper in Makati, Philippines
The Rufino Pacific Tower is a steel-framed office skyscraper with 41 floors rising 162 meters (531 feet) high, featuring double-glazed curtain walls and metal elements throughout its structure. The building combines modern office infrastructure with a podium base constructed on the foundation of a predecessor structure.
The tower was built in 1994 on the site of the former V.A. Rufino Building, with the older structure serving as the podium foundation for the new construction. This transformation marked a significant point in the modernization of Makati's business district.
The tower houses several international embassies and consulates, including the Czech Embassy, which reflects the cosmopolitan character of the business district. This presence makes the location a hub for international commerce and diplomatic activity.
The building sits at the intersection of Ayala Avenue and V.A. Rufino Street with direct access to major financial institutions and public transportation networks. Visitors will find the main commercial areas of the district easily walkable from the location.
The building houses the Little Green Hub, a specialized business center that supports startups and early-stage companies seeking office space and resources. This feature sets the tower apart from typical corporate office blocks in the area.
