Notice the names of the streets in Avida Settings Nuvali, patterned after US sites and cities– Bridgeport, Fremont Peak, Blueridge, Mt. Rushmore.
Personally I would’ve preferred a more Pinoy context…
- Where do you live?
- Pechay St.
Haha 
But seriously, what other names would’ve worked?
Pinoy veggies or herbs: Welcome to Malunggay Ave., Turn left on Pandan St.
Pinoy nature terms: Ilog St., Batis Ave., Dagat St., Araw St. <— pwede!
Pinoy animals: Oso St., Kalapati St., Lawin St., Paru-paro St.
Pinoy trees would’ve been nice too (although I know a village in Pasig that already uses them): Narra St., Mahogany, Tindalo, Ipil
On the upside, Avida’s current street names do lend a breezy feel to the place–snow references maybe? At least we can imagine snowy peaks and stay cool when we start feeling the heat of summer again.
