Manila offers green space for seniors, pet owners

Manila City Mayor Isko Moreno Aug. 12, 2026 leads the opening of a one-hectare public green space in Pandacan, Manila, named Senior Citizens' Park and Pet Park to provide dedicated recreational grounds for senior citizens, pet owners, and local residents, mayor says. Speaking to reporters during an ambush interview, Moreno said that the infrastructure project was funded through joint contributions from the Department of Budget and Management (DBM), the Office of the President, the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA), and the City Government of Manila. The park uses rainwater from the Skyway drainage lines, which is then recycled to water the plants surrounding the park.
