Jessica Sy, vice president and head of design, innovation and strategy of SM Prime and SM Development Corp. (SMDC), said that while the idea is not a new concept, a 15-minute city is something that the company wants to continue incorporating in its integrated property developments moving forward.

Under a 15-minute city concept, SM Prime's multifaceted approach to building design addresses the need to have retail, residential, commercial and leisure spaces in one seamlessly connected area.
