Aerial perspective

Novaliches is the largest district in Quezon City, which made up almost all
the northern portion of the city after Batasan Hills. It contains the La Mesa
Watershed Reservation and its Dam and Reservoir where most of Metro
Manila's water supply came from. It was originally a part of Caloocan before
being incorporated to Quezon City in 1948, when the latter was declared as
the capital. Before the place was incorporated to Quezon City in 1948,
Novaliches was already in the maps as early as 1864, having been organized
by the Spanish as early as 1855, from the haciendas of Tala, Malinta, Piedad,
and Maysilo. By 1856, it was its own municipality before being absorbed by The Junction Place – pocket urban development by Ayala Land Inc. along
Caloocan in 1901. 328 Quirino Hwy, Novaliches, Quezon City, Metro Manila (UC)

Commonwealth Act 502.

Aerial perspective

La Loma is located the southwestern portion of the city. It has five


barangays along the vicinity of its main streets: N.S. Amoranto Avenue
(Retiro) and A. Bonifacio Avenue. The district is famed as the birthplace of
many popular Filipino culinary figures and establishments especially
devoted to the lechon. The nearby La Loma Cemetery is named after this
place. Former Quezon City Mayor Feliciano Belmonte Jr. declared La Loma as the
Lechon Capital of the Philippines due to numerous establishments selling
roasted pigs in the area.
Congressional Avenue
Quezon City, Metro Manila

Location map Congressional Avenue near EDSA

According to the 1949 Master Plan for Quezon City, Congressional


Avenue was supposed to connect to the National Government Center
at Constitution Hills (present-day Batasan Hills), which would house
government offices including the Congress, where its name is apparently
derived from. However, this plan was partially materialized as the road did
not reach that area.
In the early 2010s, the avenue was envisioned to be extended into
Luzon Avenue to complement the completion of the Circumferential Road
5 which includes the widening of the C.P. Garcia (through U.P. Campus) and
Luzon Avenues, the Extension of Congressional Avenue, and the
construction of the Luzon Avenue Flyover, which aims to divert C-5 and
