General Mariano Alvarez: A Highly Urbanized Commercial-Residential Center
GMA’s public market is the main feature of the central business district. It has been constructed to strengthen the commercialization thrust of the municipality and to decongest the areas occupied by the flea market and ambulant peddlers. Located in Barangay Poblacion I along Congressional Avenue just a few meters away from the municipal bulding, the public market occupies a total area of 7,995 square meters. Local government programs center on the development of GMA’s food crops, high value commercial crops, agro-industrial crops and agro-forestry zones. Diversified farming, livestock production, health care and disease management and the proposed irrigation are among the priority projects of GMA. The Spanish Road and Tower, on the other hand, are potential tourist attractions.
