#Investec Offices - F - Graystone Drive, Sandton

[Jakes1]

New office extension for Investec on Grayston drive in Sandton

Looks like about 10F from the renders, not too sure though... But they are busy with construction.

A very unclear render.

Go higher blerrie hell...

[Jakes1]

Go higher blerrie hell...hopefully they will, I think all indications are that sandton will soon go upwards...

[Jakes1]

problem is, all the cranes seem to be in the durban area - so we want to build high-rises but we can't... It is problematic when you cant even find 12 good cranes!

[joburg]

hee hee.. :D

[dysan1]

[Durbsboi]

[Jakes1]

[Pule]

Just out of interest, what Road is this that you taking the pic from?

DB, I don't know the name of the road but that's where Old Mutual is located.

[Durbsboi]

oh deff West Road South then went to see a flat at 254 there which my cousin ended up purchasing.

[dysan1]

[Pule]

This one is really gaining momentum now.

They love their groundscrapers dont they? Sandton is going to fill out to something not looking too far off the City of London; just with wider roads.

[Durbsboi]

It maybe lowrise, but it sure makes its presence felt.

[Inertia]

Yep, i like it, much better than the lone parking lot before

[Inertia]

Very snazzy

[wobdog]

A bit off topic but I have lately been laughing at Old Mutual - they thought they could build a nice 4F place in Sandton. Now they are surrounded by 8-15F places and have no views.
Serves them right for being cheap.

[joburg]

^^^ Right on fella!

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g160/amgosai/Sky%20Scrapercity/SNC00066Large.jpg

SUCH a waste a space!

[Jakes1]

I like them, they look classical... NOT!

[Durbsboi]

My cousin lives on West Road South, her view is of those hideous things, thank god Emperor is there to save her from that horrid sight!
