Pablo Ocampo Street

Pablo Ocampo Street, also known simply as Ocampo Street and formerly and still referred to as Vito Cruz Street, is an inner city main road in Manila, Philippines. It runs west–east for about 3.448 kilometers (2.142 mi) connecting the southern districts of Malate and San Andres southeast to the adjacent city of Makati. Originally called Vito Cruz Street after Hermógenes Vito Cruz, the 19th century mayor of Pineda (present-day Pasay), the street was renamed in 1989 in honor of the Filipino statesman and lawyer Pablo Ocampo. Its section in south central Malate was known as Calle Lico and Calle Connor, respectively, when it was then a short street in the district before extending towards the Manila South Cemetery.The Manila section runs from Roxas Boulevard near the Cultural Center of the Philippines heading east through the city's southern limits in Malate district. It crosses Harrison Avenue, Adriatico Street, and Taft Avenue passing beneath LRT Line 1. From there, it continues for another kilometer past the Singalong area and southwestern San Andres district toward Osmeña Highway. Upon entering Makati east of Osmeña Highway, the road turns east at Kamagong Street where it becomes Ocampo Street Extension or Vito Cruz Street Extension. It passes through barangays La Paz, San Antonio, and Santa Cruz in northwestern Makati until it meets its eastern terminus at South Avenue, west of the Manila South Cemetery. The street carries two-way traffic, except for its section from Taft to Arellano Avenues that carries one-way eastbound traffic and from Arellano Avenue to Chino Roces Avenue that carries one-way westbound traffic. Pablo Ocampo Street is served by the Vito Cruz LRT Station along Taft Avenue and the Vito Cruz railway station along Osmeña Highway. It also extends into the Bay City area west of Roxas Boulevard as Pedro Bukaneg Street.
