INTRODUCTION
Barangay
Carmona belongs to the Makati City's first district, and is a member of the
Northwest Cluster or Cluster 3 of Makati. The barangay is located in the
northern part of Makati City. It is a residential area with a population of
3,096, recorded by the 2010 census. The barangay was named after Comandante
Isidoro Carmona, a Filipino soldier who fought during the Philippine Revolution
against Spaniards.
Barangay
Carmona is predominantly a recreational area which is due to the former
Philippine Racing Club (PRC) which is now being developed and is called Makati
Circuit. Soon to rise as Makati’s entertainment district, Makati Circuit is
poised to be the unequivocal destination for all things entertainment – with
its world-class indoor theatre, multipurpose entertainment spaces and open
grounds integrated with commercial, hotel and residential blocks. A
collaboration among Ayala Land, Inc., PRCI and the City of Makati, Circuit
completes the vision for Makati to be a leading city for entertainment,
lifestyle and business.
HISTORY
The
complete name of this Barangay is ISIDRO CARMONA. Isidro was a Filipino
commander who led the revolt against the Spaniards during the Spanish regime.
This
Barangay was a former sitio of Barangay Tejeros during the 50’s until the early
60’s. The late Barrio Captains Miling Mangahas, Emiliano San Pascual, and their
Barrio Councils worked it out until it was finally approved as an independent
Barangay during the same period.
Today, we
enjoy the blessings of their efforts and we continue our endeavor to improve
this Barangay for good.
