McKinley Exchange Corporate Center

McKinley Exchange Corporate Center is a 5-story commercial building, part of a mixed-use complex developed by Ayala Land Inc. as part of the 60-billion redevelopment and rebranding of the city of Makati.[1] It is located along McKinley Road corner EDSA and was slated to become the new transport hub of Makati.[2] It is also one of the newest upcoming PEZA-accredited zones, soon to be at par with other 39 Makati zones such as Zuellig Building, RCBC Plaza, and Makati Stock Exchange.

McKinley Exchange Corporate Center in 2017

Unlike typical commercial offices in the Philippines, tenants or locators of the McKinley Exchange Corporate Center are required to regularly update the Makati government with a list of their labor requirements, so they can hire and prioritize qualified city residents. Tenants are also required to provide a list of training schools or centers that can teach disqualified candidates so they can be reconsidered for employment.[3]

Building specifications

McKinley Exchange Corporate Center is a Grade A building that has a 2,800-sqm floor plate to accommodate BPO and multinational company space requirements.[4] It currently houses a branch of Telus International Philippines.

Transportation

A few meters from the McKinley Exchange Corporate Center lies the Ayala MRT station, where passengers can take the MRT.

Several bus stops along EDSA could also be found near the building. Bonifacio Transport Corporation has established a terminal at this building for its bus service (called The Fort Bus) along McKinley Road to provide access to different points in Bonifacio Global City and in Makati Central Business District for the morning rush hour. Passengers may also board the EDSA Carousel bus along EDSA, beneath the Ayala MRT Station.

Passengers can also board a jeepney bound for Washington Street in Pio del Pilar via Ayala Avenue behind the building. Jeepneys bound for Fort Bonifacio Gate 2 can also be found at its terminal across McKinley Road.
