Exciting new mixed-use development on the cards for Rondebosch

With any neglected space comes a huge amount of potential for various types of growth and rejuvenation. This is exactly what is set to take place in a new mixed-use development which is currently being implemented near Rondebosch in the mother city of South Africa, Cape Town. According to an article published off Cape Business News (http://www.cbn.co.za), the Conradie Hospital has been empty and uninhibited for the past 16 years, finally, there is a project that is set for completion in the next 5 to 7 years that could change the situation of the building, area and city forever. Creating a massive amount of employment and housing throughout the entire Western Cape expanse.

"A plan is finally underway to transform the hospital's 22-hectare site into an integrated, sustainable, affordable, and mixed-use property development. The construction of the development will take 5 to 7 years". -http://www.cbn.co.za/component/k2/new-development-provides-more-than-3-000-homes.html

Housing is very much a critical issue throughout all the major epicentres of all the South African cities. This potentially monumental development will also help to create a further 3000 additional places to live in the hope of enabling individuals who call Cape Town home to be presented which opportunities to reside closer to places of work. As commuting is often challenging in the mother city as lodging in the city bowl area is often expensive. This could make this part of Cape Town one of the most desirable places in which to live, for a huge amount of its citizens. Not just the mega rich or affluent.

A massive undertaking such as this will organically and positively impact on the commercial sector of the Rondebosch area currently in existence. One such company that already has an impressive roster of commercial properties and offices available in the location is Officeplace. The leading brand currently has 9 listed offices available for rent in Rondebosch and feel that mixed-use developments such as this can only help the city grow within the next couple of years.

Other factors have been taken into consideration for the success of this massive undertaking and one of those factors, is that of transport. The new mixed-use development is planned to be near key transportation links throughout the mother city. If people work in the area but live in one of the neighbouring suburbs they will have an easy commute. The site will also take the needs of pedestrians on foot and bicycle into consideration as well. With bike and walking routes in the blueprints.

"One of the benefits of this development's location is its close proximity to the Metrorail service and other existing public transport routes. There's also the potential for the expansion of other public transport modes, such as the MyCiti bus service. The site will also have interconnected footpaths and cycling infrastructure as part of an integrated non-motorised transport plan for the area". -http://www.cbn.co.za/component/k2/new-development-provides-more-than-3-000-homes.html
