About Cape Town Foreshore

The Cape Town Foreshore is a reclaimed commercial suburb situated at the edge of the city’s central grid, bounded by major arterial routes including the N1 and N2 highways. It offers direct connectivity to the wider metropolitan area and lies roughly twenty kilometres from Cape Town International Airport. Public transport users are served by the central MyCiTi bus trunk routes and proximity to the main railway station.

The area features a dense urban mix of high-rise corporate towers and structured office blocks, accommodating professional services, financial institutions, and ground-floor retail outlets. Building stock ranges from established properties like The Towers, 1 Thibault Square, and Roggebaai Place to older configurations such as Thibault House and FNB Heerengracht. Positioned immediately adjacent to the Cape Town CBD, the Foreshore shares the commercial gravity of the inner city while offering distinct high-density precincts compared to decentralised nodes like Claremont or Tygervalley.

Across roughly fifty-four recorded retail listings spanning twenty named buildings, typical asking rentals sit at around R148 per square metre per month, with asking rates having moved about 36% between 2005 and 2023.
