A Grand Vision Unfolds

Under the bright skies of Cagayan de Oro City, a landmark moment took place — the **𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗡𝗢𝗩𝗘𝗥 𝗢𝗙 𝗣𝟱𝟬 𝗠𝗜𝗟𝗟𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗔𝗠𝗣𝗜𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗥 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗥𝗜𝗩𝗘𝗥 𝗩𝗜𝗘𝗪 𝗗𝗘𝗖𝗞 𝗜𝗡 𝗣𝗟𝗔𝗭𝗔 𝗗𝗜𝗩𝗜𝗦𝗢𝗥𝗜𝗔**. Spearheaded by Cong. Rufus Rodriguez, the ribbon-cutting was more than ceremonial — it marked the birth of a cultural and environmental jewel at the heart of Barangay 6.  
The P50-million project features a magnificent Open Theatre, a scenic River View Deck, a spacious car park, and rentable commercial spaces designed for local entrepreneurs to showcase their products. Transitioning from vision to reality, this venue promises to be a melting pot where artistry meets sustainability, drawing both Kagay-anons and tourists into memorable experiences.  


A Breath of Fresh Air for the City

This development is not just about aesthetics; it’s a vibrant chapter in **Project Lunhaw**, the City Government’s initiative to enhance Cagayan de Oro’s climate resilience. By transforming Plaza Divisoria into a walkable, bikable, and verdant urban haven, the city is taking proactive steps towards eco-friendly modernization. The open spaces invite the community to gather, celebrate, and reconnect — with culture, with nature, and with each other. 
Present during the turnover were Barangay 6 Kap. Ian Glenn L. Chui, Project Lunhaw Head Patrick Gabutina, and DPWH 2nd District Engineering Office (DEO) leaders, including District Engineer Jan Paulo Lisondra. Their collaboration showcases how visionaries and engineers can unite to shape a city that’s ready for the future yet rooted in its heritage.  


**In essence**, the Open Theater and River Viewing Deck stand as more than infrastructure — they are symbols of hope, creativity, and environmental stewardship. With each performance held and every visitor welcomed, Cagayan de Oro steps closer to becoming a city where progress and paradise meet.
