Hello Forumers...

I've been in South Africa for awhile now and I've just now snuck onto the forum to see all of the development taking place.

This city (Johannesburg) is crazy, with cranes everywhere. They are mostly suburban and in their new suburban downtown (Sandton) but even in Africa downtown is undergoing a residential revitalization.


(I took that image from http://www.sacities.net/cities/joburg/skyline.jpg)

I live under the tiny-looking observation tower (Sentech Tower) on the left of the photo, which was taken from a funny angle. The tower at right is 90 stories, the prominent building in front is 54 and is all residential (Ponte City Tower). The tallest office building in Africa is the Carlton Centre, the tall square building on the far left.

Anwyay, thanks to all of you for contributing to the forum. I love all of the photo updates and I will try to check in more often to keep up. Keep up the great work!!
