Plainview is an urban barangay in Mandaluyong, Metro Manila, Philippines. It is home to the city's seat of government and was originally the site of the Plainview residential subdivision.
The area is named after the area's history as a plain where rice and corn were cultivated. It was originally developed as a private residential subdivision by real estate developer Ortigas, Madrigal and Company (now Ortigas and Company). The residential development was converted into a barangay, retaining its name.
