about_history
Pio del Pilar, formerly known as Culi-Culi was once a vast rice field where fruit trees and vegetables abound. It was not a horse ranch but there were more than a hundred horses used to service calesas or karitelas which was the main transportation then.
It was renamed Pio del Pilar after the hero, General Pio del Pilar, who was a resident of the place.
From a red light district, Pio del Pilar was developed into one of the most prestigious and progressive barangays of Makati.
Presently the Barangay Captain of Pio del Pilar is Mr. Tony P. De Leon. The residence of Gen. Pio del Pilar who was a resident of the place, is located at J. Victor corner Jacinto Streets.
