CT office park construction starts
2008-01-24 · Western Cape<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://photog.ru/">
Construction has started on an office park development adjacent to the Eastern Boulevard in the city bowl in Cape Town.
Dave Russell, a director of Baker Street Properties, says The Boulevard is an office park providing 32,000sq m of offices and more than 1,800 parking bays on the periphery of the Cape Town CBD.
"The development fronts onto the Eastern Boulevard (M3) with access from the Searle Street off-ramp."
The Boulevard, not far from Clicks headquarters, will consist of seven buildings positioned around a large piazza with restaurants and coffee shops.
The buildings will range in size from 2,900sq m to 7,300sq m, designed to accommodate companies requiring up to 13,700sq m in one building. Each of the seven buildings stands on a podium under which three "super basements" will provide five parking bays per 100sq m.
"The design is similar to the Melrose Arch development in Gauteng, where the super basement concept has been part of the success behind that development," says Glen Mackie, a director of Baker Street Properties.
The first building is scheduled to be completed in November 2008 and the rest of the buildings will come on stream shortly after.
