-170 to 176 (5 images, some have not been used for this presentation) are shots of Olongapo City and the former Naval Station Subic Bay, the former Naval Supply Depot (NSD) and even parts of Cubi Point Naval Air Station etc. This Subic Bay complex is now called the Subic Bay Freeport Zone (SBFZ) and is managed by the Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority (SBMA). Before the war it was all Olongapo but now we use the term Subic Bay.
Image 170 shows the new large SM Mall (SM=Shoe Mart) where the Olongapo Hospital used to be, and we see Santa Rita Mountain with its tower.
Image 171 shows a medium floating dry-dock, a Naval MSC ship at Rivera Wharf, the ex Naval fuel piers, with a 2nd pier and new big tanks left of it.
Image 173 shows Olongapo City in front, the former NSD with old and new warehouses with a merchant ship in. Left of it we see the former Naval Base power plant and the new one with a high exhaust stack; left of that we see one of the golf greens near the Binictican road.
Image 174, for your orientation, left is the new SM Mall of Olongapo, where the Olongapo Hospital used to be. This picture really shows the big change from the Naval Base to a Freeport Zone. All the big structures left of the former NSD and behind Olongapo are all new and big structures of the Subic Bay Industrial Park which stretches all the way to the Binictican Golf Course.
Image 176 also shows many changes. We see the Philippine Flag left of a high-rise and many other large buildings have been built on the former Naval Station. You should make out the words Harbor Point, that is a new Ayala Mall on the former Base (we have 4 Malls now in Olongapo and Subic Town). The drainage canal that separates the base from Olongapo is on this side of the Harbor Point Mall. To the left of it we see the SM Mall Olongapo City Down-Town just outside the former base and across the main gate bridge, now the Magsaysay Bridge. To the right we see one of the hangars of the former Cubi Point Naval Air Station which is now the Subic Bay International Airport terminal. To the right and higher is the former Famous Cubi Point Officer Club, now a residential area and in 1996 it was the location for the APEC meeting. The Boton Wharf area and more so in the Boton River Valley are fully occupied with new big commercial enterprises.

One last photo from the trip. Part of the farm tour included meeting some of the stallions who are out to stud or just in retirement. The groom conducting the tour introduced this guy as the "grumpy old man" of the farm, so I love that it looks like he's sticking his tongue out at us in this picture.
