McKinley Road
McKinley Road is a tree-lined avenue linking the central business districts of Makati and Bonifacio Global City in Metro Manila, Philippines. It is a continuation of Ayala Avenue, south of Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA), which runs for approximately 1.9 kilometers (1.2 miles) through the affluent neighborhoods of Forbes Park and Dasmariñas Village. It is home to the exclusive Manila Polo Club and the Manila Golf and Country Club.
McKinley Road has a residential character dominated by mansions with high walls and elaborate gates. At its centerpiece is the Spanish Mission style Santuario de San Antonio church that faces the San Antonio Plaza, the main public square of Forbes Park. A small arcade stands on the opposite side of the plaza which houses a Rustan's grocery, a gourmet deli, a few cafés and a bookstore. The rest of Forbes Park on both sides of McKinley is closed to non-residents.
==History==
The road originally served as a northwest-southeast route between Fort McKinley and Pasay.〔(Map of Ft. McKinley, Pre-1942 ) published by Philippine Scouts Heritage Society; accessed 2013-10-13.〕 It was an extension of ''Calzada de Pasay'' (Pasay Road, now Arnaiz Avenue) that linked Nielson Field in San Pedro de Macati to Fort McKinley.〔(Map of Nielson Field ) published by PacificWrecks.com; accessed 2013-10-13.〕 The road's terminus was the Carabao Gate at the entrance to the Fort, on what is now the intersection with Fifth Avenue. After World War II, the airport was decommissioned and was redeveloped along with surrounding estates by its owners, the Zobel de Ayala family. The shorter runway was converted into what is now Ayala Avenue and was extended south towards the new suburban village of Forbes Park. The road was then realigned to meet Ayala and was subsequently named for the U.S military reservation to which it leads, which was, in turn, named after William McKinley, the 25th President of the United States, responsible for the U.S. colonization of the Philippines in 1898.
There are two other streets in the area named McKinley: McKinley Parkway, an extension of McKinley Road in Bonifacio Global City; and Upper McKinley Road, an unrelated road on McKinley Hill further south on Lawton Avenue in Fort Bonifacio.
