During the 60s up to the 90s, Ayala Center Makati was known as Makati Commercial Center. I recall that, back then in the 60s, known landmarks were the Rizal Theater (where now stands the famous Shanri-La Hotel Makati), Shoemart (the original name of SM Department Store) and the ever enduring Anson’s Emporium (relocated within Ayala Center at least twice since then).
Ayala Center Makati is a recreational, shopping, dining and entertainment development centered on two Ayala Center Malls, Ayala Center Glorietta, and Ayala Center Greenbelt, an upscale shopping center. The two Ayala Center Malls are surrounded by smaller department stores and retail centers, these are SM Makati, The Landmark (read “low priced groceries and dry good items”), Park Square and Rustan's Makati.
When in need of supplies for home and office, one goes directly to Glorietta. Alternately, when decided to relax by shopping or dining, one goes to Greenbelt.
Ayala Center includes 6750, where shops of international brands and Procter and Gamble's and Chevron’s Philippine Headquarters are located. It also includes well known hotels chains such as the Hotel Intercontinental, Dusit Hotel, Marriott's New World Hotel, The Peninsula Manila and the Shangri-La Hotel Makati.
Fine residential serviced apartments such as Oakwood Premier Ayala Center (now called Ascott Makati) where the Oakwood Mutiny in 2003 was held and Greenbelt Residences, and Ayala's Ayala Museum are also located in Ayala Center. This mall is also near to Ayala MRT Station.
Soon to rise residential condominiums are The Residences at Greenbelt and The Raffles Residences at Glorietta.
