The quintessential development will comprise of A and Premium grade commercial office space, a world-class public exhibition centre, an elegant craft brewery, retail, a Virgin Active gym and restaurants surrounding an open air piazza, thereby creating an energetic and vibrant atmosphere.    

Jackie van Niekerk, CEO of Pivotal commented: “We are very excited about this unique development, secured by Abland, and believe we’ve raised the bar with an exceptional mixed-use concept locat ed in the heart of one of our country’s richest historical rugby institutions.   

 With Loftus Versfeld, an iconic landmark in the city and the heartbeat of Tshwane and adjacent to Loftus  park, the development is in an exclusive location with excellent proximity to the Union Buildings, embassies, the University of Pretoria and various prestigious schools and hospitals.”
