Hello.
Does anyone possess data that shows the age of individual buildings in the Philippines?
Or does anyone have access to the following URL

https://www.foi.gov.ph/requests/building-year-built-and-construction-type-psa-982146793982/

I don't think it is currently accessible, but if anyone has downloaded the data before, please share.
