Mula sa driver ng jeep na nasakyan ko kanina [NV]:

"Nandito na ko mula 1979. Nanonood nung ginawa yang Starmall Alabang. Ambaho nun kasi may mga bagong libing na hinuhukay nila...Lupit ni Villar, no? Yung sementeryo pinahukay niya para maging mall. Pati patay ginambala."
Dagdag pa ni Manong:

"Naalala ko noon, panay damuhan at gubat iyang Molito hanggang Alabang. Stock Farm yan e. Dami hayop. Pag gabi na humaharurot na kami pa-Alabang, walang hinto-hinto kasi may mga multo na sumasakay diyan sa bandang Molito. Kala mo pasahero pero di pala."
For context ho:

Ayon kay Dr. Malou Camagay (2005), in her book re Muntinlupa history, ang Filinvest area ay ang dating Alabang Stock Farm, isang agricultural facility ng Dept of Agriculture and sold to Gotianuns in the 1990s

Ayala Alabang used to be the Madrigal Estate.
Oh, I found an internet photo of Alabang Stock Farm, ca. 1933, courtesy of John Tewell. Present photo of Filinvest City courtesy of Dexter Baldon
Update: the 1994 Magandang Gabi Bayan Halloween Special featured its demolition. Skip to 54:42-56:15.
