Early this week, while cruising along Santiago Boulevard and passing by the soon-to-open giant mall of SM City Gen. Santos, one thing immediately got my attention!

"THE SM CITY GENSAN FACADE ALONG SANTIAGO BOULEVARD"

Their LOGO SIGNAGE is now up!

"A CLOSER LOOK OF THE SM CITY GENSAN LOGO SIGNAGE AT THEIR SANTIAGO BOULEVARD FRONTAGE. PLS CLICK ON THE PHOTO FOR A LARGER VIEW."

I had to convince myself that I was not dreaming and that I was really in GenSan while looking at the blue logo!  After a few moments, I finally realized…  with me seeing this, SM City General Santos is indeed here and will be opening anytime next quarter!

Wala nang makakapigil pa sa paglusob ng SM sa South Central Mindanao at ang patuloy na pag-asenso ng General Santos City!

Here is how SM City GenSan looks from the corner of Santiago Boulevard and San Miguel Street below…

And for the money shot, here is SM City GenSan’s LOGO SIGNAGE at their San Miguel Street Frontage in a photograph taken by my official photographer last night.  Click on the image for a larger view and try to find some technicians dwarfed by the giant signage while working on it.
