The Approved ECC of the Masterson Mile North Project
The Hazard Assessment clearly shows that the site is prone to ground shaking, ashfall, and severe winds. Combined with the absence of bedrock at 40 m depth, constructing five 26‑storey towers poses serious structural and public safety risks. Morning Mist Village, as the immediate neighbor, would be directly exposed to these hazards.

According to the geologic studies submitted by Pueblo to the DENR, the proposed site for the Towers of Darkness shows no bedrock even at a depth of 40 meters. Likewise, the Engineering Geological and Geohazard Assessment Report (EGGAR) filed by PODC confirms that geotechnical drilling up to 40 meters failed to reach solid strata. Academic experts consulted by MMVHOA further stress that the so called “Cagayan Terrace Gravel” is not genuine bedrock but merely semi consolidated alluvial deposits with significantly lower shear strength. Notably, the EGGAR itself recommends deeper drilling to identify hard strata capable of bearing the massive load of the proposed towers.
This raises a critical question: Should we risk erecting high rise structures on land where no bedrock has been found even after extensive drilling? Can the safety and security of our residents and homeowners truly be guaranteed under such precarious conditions?
