Last Look: Ororama Mega Center

A night view of Ororama Mega Center

Ororama Megacenter (in Lapasan) has been one of the oldest mall-like establishments here in CDO, and it has already been one of the Landmarks for the fellow Kagay-anons. It used to be such a competitive store (like it's other branches), and even a place to go to every weekends for some weekend bowling activities or a theater movie, but ever since well developed malls came into the city, it become more of a divisoria type store selling ukay-ukay's, pirated DVD's / VCD's, and just about anything you can see in divisoria.

But on October 28, 2008, all are considered history as a wild a fire (which started at the 4th floor) broke down everything that was inside Ororama Megacenter. The fire lasted for 25 hours until it was declared to be consumed the next day. (see video footage here)

As expected , a lot of speculations had rise, but nothing has clearly been proven yet.

Will it rise again? Will it be another mall? Or will it soon be a part of something else? So many questions, yet only time can really tell.
