Rockwell Center is a high-end mixed-use area in Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines. It is a project of Rockwell Land Corporation which is in turn owned by the Chablani and Hernandez Group of companies. Rockwell Center was first developed in 1998 and is being expanded since 2012. The architectural firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM) carried out the design under the direction of former design partner Larry Oltmanns. Its centerpiece, the Power Plant Mall, opened on December 26, 2000. The Rockwell Center includes office buildings, condominium towers, a law and business school and a shopping mall.

The Rockwell Center was constructed on a 15.5-hectare lot in Makati Poblacion previously occupied by a thermal plant operated by then Lopez-owned Manila Electric Railroad and Light Company until its closure in 1994. The lot is bounded by J.P. Rizal Avenue to the north, where it faces the Pasig River, Estrella Street to the east, Rockwell Drive and Amapola Street to the south, and R. Palma Street to the west.

Marking the expansion of Rockwell Center will be The Proscenium at Rockwell, a 3.6 hectare mixed-used development which will stand in the property formerly known as the Colgate-Palmolive (Philippines) headquarters. It is an ongoing luxury development by Rockwell Land Corporation. It stands with four residential towers, office tower, and retail designed by architect Carlos Ott. It consists of residential, retail, office, amenity and cultural spaces. It will have four residential towers, namely the Kirov, Sakura, Lincoln and Lorraine. The fifth tower named "The Proscenium Tower" will provide office spaces.
