The 30.61-hectare (75.6-acre) masterplanned community is the first integrated township project by Robinsons Land Corporation, the real estate arm of JG Summit.[1] It is currently anchored by four office towers in its information technology park dedicated to the business process outsourcing sector, its second in Metro Manila after Robinsons Cybergate in Mandaluyong.[2] Once completed, the township will be a community consisting of seven office towers, a shopping mall, five-star hotel and residential condominiums, with a landmark bridge and a light art installation called The Victor as its centerpiece.[1][2][3]

Bridgetowne straddles the dividing line between Quezon City and Pasig and is divided into two tracts by the Marikina River. The majority of the development, the 22.56-hectare (55.7-acre) Bridgetowne East, sits on the eastern bank of the river within an area of Pasig administered as part of the village of Rosario and Manggahan .This area bounded by Amang Rodriguez Avenue to the east is a densely populated residential and industrial area in close proximity to the Manggahan Floodway. The 8.05-hectare (19.9-acre) Bridgetowne West occupies the Quezon City side of the township where it is bordered by Eulogio Rodriguez Jr. Avenue (C-5 Road) to the west. This area in Ugong Norte is a major transportation corridor that links Ortigas Center and Eastwood City. It neighbors the Parklinks development on both banks of the Marikina River to the north and the Alaska Land IT Center to the south, with Green Meadows and Valle Verde gated villages forming its western border across C-5. The township is also a stone's throw from the Ortigas East, The Grove by Rockwell and Arcovia City mixed-use developments of C-5 just south of Ortigas Avenue. In September 2019, Robinsons Land inaugurated the 200-meter-long (660 ft) arch bridge connecting its two sides across the Marikina River that also serves as an alternate route between C-5 and Amang Rodriguez Avenue.[4]
Bridgetowne is a redevelopment of several former industrial properties along the Marikina River in Rosario and Ugong Norte. The eight-hectare Quezon City property was acquired by Robinsons Land in 2011, two hectares of which was purchased from Republic Glass Holdings Corp. which operated a glass manufacturing facility at the location.[5][6] In April 2013, Robinsons Land announced a ₱30 billion business park development for the property, its second after the Robinsons Cybergate development.[7] The company topped off its first office building in the eight-hectare Bridgetowne Business Park in Quezon City, the 20-storey Tera Tower, in November 2014.[8]
On September 5, 2019, the business park was rebranded as simply Bridgetowne, Robinsons Land's first township in the country, now covering 30.61 hectares (75.6 acres).[1] The 200-meter (660 ft) long Bridgetowne Bridge also opened to the public linking its Quezon City IT park component to the new 22.56-hectare (55.7-acre) Pasig redevelopment site added to the township.[9] The Pasig property covers the former Rosario Plant, a food processing plant of JG Summit subsidiary Universal Robina, and Litton Knitting Mills, a 7-hectare (17-acre) textile manufacturing complex which stood at the site since 1954 and which JG Summit purchased in the 1970s.[10]
In December 2019, another hectare was added to the township through a joint acquisition of the former Red Ribbon Bakeshop commissary on C-5 Road adjacent to the property by Robinsons Land and DoubleDragon Properties.[11]
