A Look Inside the Renovated Bahay Pangulo
Bahay Pangulo, the official residence of the President of the Philippines, is located inside Malacañang Park, a 19-hectare land that also houses a golf course, the headquarters of the Presidential Security Group (PSG), and the PSG Hospital.
In 2022, the presidential house, then called Bahay Pagbabago, was damaged when a 7.1-magnitude earthquake hit Metro Manila and its neighboring areas. The damage prompted President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. to have the structure renovated. He tapped architect Conrad Onglao to lead the renovation and design what is now the Bahay Pangulo.
The Beginnings of Bahay Pangulo and Malacañang Park
In the 1930s, during the term of President Manuel L. Quezon, the Philippine government acquired a 19-hectare lot at the south bank of Pasig River. This land, once composed of rice fields, was developed into Malacañang Park consisting of three buildings: a recreation hall, an assembly hall, and a rest house for the Philipp House design software!
