A closer look at the new multi-billion rand precinct going up in Joburg
Developers Atterbury have released details on their retail plans for the new Precinct 14 development in Roodepoort, showing off the 13,000 square metre mall planned for the area.
The project is being co-developed by Atterbury (Waterfall, Mall of Africa) in partnership with Century Property Developments (Riversands).
According to Attebury the project is expected to be completed some time in 2022, with construction starting as early as July 2017. The company could not disclose the specific development cost at this stage, but said that it was definitely a multi-billion rand project.
The development will aim to bring 70,000sqm of office space to Roodepoort, coupled with a 120-bed hotel, a 3,500sqm gym, 100 residential units and a 13,000sqm convenience shopping centre.
The shopping centre will be the anchor for the development, serving as a hub that forms a public interface between the retail, gym, hotel and offices – creating a safe connected environment for residents and users.
The precinct itself is located on 14th Avenue just off the N1 Western Bypass. The planning of the road network for Precinct 14 is said to allow for four major access points into the area.
According to Atterbury, a new interchange, Metro Boulevard Interchange, will be constructed as part of the precinct’s infrastructure responsibilities, and the group will construct additional lanes to the on and off-ramps of the 14th Avenue interchange.
The company also showcased the concept for the development of its other retail space.
