'''Asian Development Bank Avenue''', commonly referred to as simply '''ADB Avenue''', is a short north–south thoroughfare in [[Ortigas Center]], eastern [[Metro Manila]], [[Philippines]]. It is an eight-lane divided road connecting [[Ortigas Avenue]] in the north to [[Julia Vargas Avenue]] in the south. It was formerly part of [[San Miguel Avenue]], named after food and beverage giant [[San Miguel Corporation]] that is headquartered on the junction with Julia Vargas. This section of San Miguel Ave. from Julia Vargas to Ortigas Ave. was renamed in 1991 after the [[Asian Development Bank]] moved from its old building on [[Roxas Boulevard]] (now occupied by the [[Department of Foreign Affairs (Philippines)|Department of Foreign Affairs]]) to its present 6.5-hectare headquarters on the avenue's junction with Guadix Drive.<ref>[http://www.bworldonline.com/weekender/content.php?id=50698 Greenbacks & green buildings] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150923221531/http://www.bworldonline.com/weekender/content.php?id=50698 |date=September 23, 2015 }} published by [[BusinessWorld]]; accessed November 1, 2013.</ref><ref>[https://www.officialgazette.gov.ph/1991/06/21/executive-order-no-466-s-1991/ Executive Order No. 466, s. 1991] published by the Official Gazette of the Republic of the Philippines; accessed November 1, 2013.</ref>
