Description

The Maboneng Precinct is a connected urban neighbourhood in downtown Johannesburg.

Maboneng is fast becoming Joburg's most unique and innovative area, offering live / work and entertainment opportunities within a fully integrated urban environment.

Maboneng, meaning "Place of Light", is a privately developed urban neighbourhood on the east side of Johannesburg CBD. A fully fledged thriving community, Maboneng is home to numerous independent retail, restaurants and entertainment venues as well as designful apartments, offices, hotels, a museum and creative factory spaces in a connected urban environment. Organically, Maboneng has grown to become an entrepeneurial hub due to creatives seeing the opportunity to collaborate with like-minded people.

Completed developments include Arts on Main and Main Street Life, Revolution House and more. Maboneng has also expanded North to include developments such as Access City and Hallmark House.

"A collection of old manufacturing buildings retrofitted with steel, glass and concrete. These original buildings fitted with welcoming street facing retail, commercial work spaces and artist studios juxtaposed with additions of more unconventional modern architecture rising upwards – making the neighbourhood more dense with additional levels of residential loft apartments and double volume penthouses… This is the making of Maboneng."
