Developments
The Yubenco Star Mall, originally planned as City Star Mall, was first constructed in 2002 at the former PLDT Branch Building. The mall is the first to be built in the fast-progressive east coast area of Barangays Guiwan and Putik, outside the city center. The mall was opened on December 10, 2005.
Yubenco Star Mall's location is reminiscent of the Tutuban Center Complex and Binondo District in Manila in terms of shopping location. Yubenco Star Mall offers products and services at a very low, pang-masa (for the masses) price. Yubenco Star Mall is owned by Yuscom Trading.

Famous quotes containing the word developments:
“I don’t wanna live in a city where the only cultural advantage is that you can make a right turn on a red light.
Freedom from labor itself is not new; it once belonged among the most firmly established privileges of the few. In this instance, it seems as though scientific progress and technical developments had been only taken advantage of to achieve something about which all former ages dreamed but which none had been able to realize.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
“The developments in the North were those loosely embraced in the term modernization and included urbanization, industrialization, and mechanization. While those changes went forward apace, the antebellum South changed comparatively little, clinging to its rural, agricultural, labor-intensive economy and its traditional folk culture.”
—C. Vann Woodward (b. 1908)
