Philippine Diamond Tower, Observation tower and transmitter mast in Quezon City, Philippines
The Philippine Diamond Tower is a broadcasting and transmission structure in Quezon City that rises approximately 630 meters above the ground. It combines television and radio transmission capabilities with modern architectural design for the metropolitan area.
The project was planned in 2014 at the site of the former Manila Seedling Bank and attracted international investment interest from Japan and China. This construction marked a significant development moment for the metropolitan region's infrastructure.
The tower serves as a visual landmark that residents use to navigate the city and understand their place within the metropolitan area. For many, it has become part of how they perceive and orient themselves in Quezon City.
The structure is visible from various points across the city and can be observed from surrounding streets and neighborhoods. The best views are available from nearby residential areas and business districts.
The height of approximately 630 meters was not a random choice but carries meaning in local tradition and understanding. This connection between modern engineering and cultural symbolism distinguishes the project in its design.
