There are some bright spots of course Metropolitan Theater, China Bank Building on Juan Luna, Luneta Hotel in Ermita are their magnificent old selves, but it’s a pity how so few reminders are left of beautiful and historic Manila. The Art Deco Jai Alai building was demolished to make way for a parking lot. Torre de Manila mars the vista of Rizal Park, a fate that may soon befall gothic San Sebastian Church.
