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...

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

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!

hee hee.. :D

yarrick yarrick yarrick, feel sorry that your jealous and (B) trying to be humourous.... :)

My friends & cousin work here, they didnt tell me they extending, & when is construction going to start on Investecs offices in Umhlanga?

The effect of leaving your car outside

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

West Road South i believe?

yep, too difficult to get pics from grayston

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.

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

pity investec arent going high like all the others :( but still rather imposing at street level. still no close up render?

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.

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

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

Very snazzy

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.

^^^ Right on fella!

SUCH a waste a space!

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

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!
