    Next intersection after Makati Ave is Paseo de Roxas. There are only two buildings at the right side of Gil Puyat on that area. I will update this if a building is constructed there. So, get off the jeep and walk to:

    DBP or Development Bank of the Philippines - corner of Gil Puyat and Makati Ave.
    Metrobank Plaza

    The following buildings are located at the left side of Gil Puyat from Makati Ave to Paseo de Roxas. Get off the jeepney at the proper unloading area, cross Gil Puyat Ave and walk toward your building. If your building is near Paseo de Roxas, alight at Paseo de Roxas, cross the road and walk back toward your destination.

    The buildings are listed below in order of their locations from Makati Ave to Paseo de Roxas:

    Executive Building
    NAPOLCOM
    SM CyberOne
    DTI International
    Goldland Building Herbalife
    ECB Bldg BDO Paseo de Roxas

    The only building between Paseo de Roxas is:

    Medicard Lifestyle Center

    To get there, get off the jeepney before it crosses Paseo de Roxas or alight after it crosses Paseo.

    The following buildings are located at the left side of Gil Puyat Ave from Paseo de Roxas to EDSA. If your building destination is nearer to Paseo de Roxas, alight after the jeepeny has crossed Paseo de Roxas, cross Gil Puyat Ave and walk toward your building. If your building destination is nearer to EDSA, get off the jeepney at unloading zone near to EDSA, cross Gil Puyat and walk toward your building.

    Important: Some jeepneys with "Bel-Air" sign turn left onto Paseo de Roxas and then turn right onto Jupiter, the road paralleled to Gil Puyat. Jupiter is at the back of the buildings listed below. So, if your jeepney takes Jupiter, you can alight anywhere along Jupiter. If that is the case, then get off the jeepney at the right location of your building destination and enter your building at its back entrance, all of them has back entrances.

    Tip: If your building destination is one of the buildings listed below, it would be better if you ride a jeepney that would take or pass through Jupiter on its way to EDSA or MRT Buendia Station. "Guadalupe" bound jeepneys don't take Jupiter. Only jeepneys with "Bel-Air" signs take Jupiter St. Not all of them take Jupiter, so it's better if you ask the driver if he's passing through Jupiter.

    For your reference, the buildings are listed in the order of their location from Paseo de Roxas to EDSA/MRT-3 Buendia Station:

    Saville Building
    DTI Board of Investments
    387 Used Auto Center
    Tara Building

    Goodwill Building
    Accelerando Building
    Buendia Car Exchange
