Calzada, also known asCalzada-Tipas, is one of the 38 barangays ofTaguig,Philippines.
The barangay's original name is Calzada Tipas. The first part of the barangay's name, Calzada, comes fromSpanish word for "road", symbolizing the thoroughfare that connects the old town center of Taguig with the neighboring towns ofPateros andPasig. On the other hand, the second part, Tipas, comes fromTagalog wordstinagpas ortiga-gapas, which means "to cut" or "to break", representing the traditional practice of farmers cutting through rice crops during harvest.[1]
Through Municipal Resolution No. 51 of the Taguig Municipal Council on July 15, 1971, the old Nayon of Tipas was divided into 4Barrios, namely: Calzada Tipas, Palingon Tipas, Ligid Tipas, andIbayo Tipas.[2] It was converted into barangay in 1974, by virtue of Presidential Decree No. 557.[3]
