In fact, notable events such as the Battle of San Mateo took place here. In the early 1960s, Bagong Silangan was known as a rich agricultural area where rice was the main product. In 1968, it is the relocation site given by Mayor Norberto Amoranto to selected families coming from Barangay East Triangle in Quezon City who refused to be resettled in Carmona, Cavite, thousand families was relocated but a selected hundred families plead to Mayor Amoranto that if there is a vacant land here in Quezon City, they begged off to relocate, with the bold decision headed by former Teniente del Barrio Laureano Ramos this pioneering families courageously settled here having no water supply, electricity and no accessible roads. Pioneering residents built their houses beside the creek in front of big rice fields.
Bagong Silangan is divided into different main areas like Purok, Sitio, Villages, Subdivisions, and Compound.
