Moby
Meet Moby! The brand new capital of Mowbray.
The purpose-designed, super-secure and tech-savvy block on Rhodes Avenue and Main Road offers 200 apartments, comprising of studio, one and two bedroom and premium corner apartments (on six levels) above a modern retail ground floor.
Basement parking and concierge security (with biometric access) means stay-in or lock-‘n-go convenience, and great views come standard.
Moby's innovative live / work / play / shop / stay environment is brilliantly located for young city and suburbs professionals and 6 tertiary institutions. Moby offers people on the move a fully connected lifestyle, close to the city and suburbs and within walking distance of six internationally recognized tertiary institutions. Jammie Shuttle and MyCiti Bus stops are located right outside and the development is a stroll away from vibrant Obz and Woodstock, next door to Rondebosch and Rosebank.
Moby’s 22m terrace pool and sundeck provide loads of relaxation space with beautiful panoramic views and open-air gardens perfect for barbeques. Fibre-optic internet connection, a modern gym and laundromat all on site help seal the deal. The mini mall downstairs, you’ll find 5,500sqm of flagship retail brands, a national supermarket, contemporary restaurants, coffee shops, deli, banks, and ATMs.
Selling from R1,299,000 VAT included, Moby offers investors 2.5 years of capital growth before transfer and captive rental market demand thereafter. Buy-to-let investors will benefit from the Urban Development Zone’s incentive – up to 55% of the full purchase price can be offset as a tax deduction.
Moby is the brainchild of Heriot REIT Ltd, working with Dennis Fabian Architects and the Make team to deliver a contemporary lifestyle for young professionals and academics.

Is it just me, or do none of the recent apartment developments in CT seem particularly "affordable"? Amenities like a gym, rooftop swimming pool, high-speed fibre optic internet etc. are not aimed at the working class. Almost every single development I've seen is clearly targeting upper-middle to upper class residents.
This did not use to be the case in SA. Many of the older apartments built in the 70s and 80s were not particularly fancy and aimed squarely at the working class.
Like these kind of flats:

It can't be an issue of affordability - Dar, Nairobi, Addis Ababa etc. are all much poorer than Cape Town and full of these types of apartments. (Not to mention Asian cities).
